Hospital / inpatientDual diagnosisAbout residential drug rehab
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.
Texas residential drug programs keep direct care staff awake and on site around the clock and a counselor on duty at least eight hours a day, six days a week. Ask programs near Brownsville whether they are licensed for intensive or supportive residential care, because the difference is the number of treatment hours each week.
Questions to ask
- How does it treat my specific drug, including medications for opioid use disorder?
- How many individual counseling hours are there each week?
- Is the program licensed for intensive or supportive residential care?
- When does discharge planning start?
