What residential drug rehab involves

Residential drug rehab means living at the treatment program for the length of your stay, usually 28 to 90 days. Days are structured around individual therapy, group sessions, medical check-ins and recovery skills, with staff on site around the clock.

Living on site takes you out of the places, people and routines tied to drug use. For many people, that distance is what makes the first weeks of recovery possible.

What to expect

• Detox on site or coordinated before admission if needed
• Family involvement and education
• A written aftercare plan before discharge
• Daily individual and group therapy

What Texas rules mean for residential drug rehab

In Texas, residential programs are licensed by the Health and Human Services Commission. The most intensive level must average at least 30 hours of services per client each week, with at least 10 hours of counseling, and a counselor can carry no more than 10 clients. That structure is what separates a residential drug program from a weekly outpatient group.

What to ask a program

• How many individual counseling hours are there each week?
• When does discharge planning start?
• How does it treat my specific drug, including medications for opioid use disorder?
