What residential alcohol rehab involves

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

• Relapse prevention and coping-skills work
• Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
• A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
• A daily schedule of therapy, groups and recovery activities
