Residential alcohol rehab is live-in treatment for alcohol use disorder. After a medically supervised detox, you stay at the program while you work through therapy, learn to handle triggers and build a plan for life after treatment.
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous on its own, so most residential programs either provide detox on site or coordinate it before admission.
What to expect
- A written aftercare plan before discharge
- Daily individual and group therapy
- Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
- An intake assessment covering substance use, health and mental health
Before you choose residential alcohol rehab
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous, so residential alcohol programs near Austin usually begin with medically supervised detox. NIAAA notes that naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram are non-addictive medications approved for alcohol use disorder, and many Texas residential programs can start one before discharge.
Questions to ask
- Do physicians prescribe naltrexone, acamprosate or disulfiram?
- Is medical detox on site?
- What aftercare is arranged near home?

Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
What if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Texas, Health and Safety Code Chapter 462 also lets a family member or other adult apply to the county court for court-ordered treatment, with a physician's certificate attached, when someone's addiction makes them likely to cause serious harm or keep deteriorating. See our guide to court-ordered treatment in Texas.
Are there medications for alcohol cravings?
Yes. Naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram are FDA-approved for alcohol use disorder, and many residential programs offer them alongside therapy.
Do I need detox before alcohol rehab?
If you drink heavily every day, yes. Alcohol withdrawal can cause seizures, so medically supervised detox usually comes first. Many residential programs provide it on site.
