Hospital / inpatientDual diagnosisAbout residential drug rehab
In a residential drug rehab program you sleep, eat and attend treatment in the same place. A clinical team builds a plan around the substances you use, your health and any mental health needs, then adjusts it week by week.
Most residential programs in Texas follow detox with therapy-heavy days: cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma work, family sessions and relapse prevention, plus time to rest and rebuild routines.
What to expect
- Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living
- A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
- Relapse prevention and coping-skills work
- Medication support for cravings or withdrawal when appropriate
Residential Drug Rehab in Texas: what to know
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.
Questions to ask
- When does discharge planning start?
- How does it treat my specific drug, including medications for opioid use disorder?
- How many individual counseling hours are there each week?

Frequently asked questions
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.
Should someone from Stafford 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.
Is residential drug rehab the same as inpatient?
They overlap. Inpatient care is more medically intensive and often hospital-based; residential care is a live-in program centered on therapy and structure. Many Texas programs offer both.
How long is residential drug rehab?
Most residential drug rehab programs run 28 to 90 days. The right length depends on what you use, your history and how quickly you stabilize. Many people step down to outpatient care after.
