Hospital / inpatientDetox availableHow residential alcohol rehab works
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
- Evidence-based therapies such as CBT and motivational interviewing
- 24-hour staff and a structured, substance-free setting
- Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma
- Help arranging care after you leave

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.
Should someone from West University Place stay in Texas for treatment?
For most Texans with a Texas health plan, yes. In-network benefits are easiest to use at Texas programs, family can take part in family sessions, and aftercare near home is simpler to arrange. Some people choose a program in a different part of Texas to get distance from where they used.
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.
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.
