How residential drug rehab works

Residential drug treatment is the step between detox and returning home. It gives you a safe, drug-free place to stabilize while you learn what drives your use and how to manage cravings without it.

Programs differ in length, therapies and amenities, so it helps to ask how a program handles medications, mental health care and aftercare before you commit.

What to expect

• Medication support for cravings or withdrawal when appropriate
• A medical and psychiatric evaluation in the first days
• A daily schedule of therapy, groups and recovery activities
• Step-down planning to outpatient care or sober living

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.

Questions to ask

• Is the program licensed for intensive or supportive residential care?
• When does discharge planning start?
• How many individual counseling hours are there each week?
