Inpatient or residential treatment is the most intensive level of addiction care. You live at the treatment facility full-time, typically for 30-90 days, receiving round-the-clock support and structure. This immersive approach removes you from triggers, people, and environments that contribute to substance use.
Most residential programs last 30, 60, or 90 days. Research shows longer stays (90+ days) significantly improve long-term success rates. Your treatment team will help determine the right duration based on your individual needs and progress.
Getting Stable First
Inpatient treatment focuses on getting you physically and mentally stable from substances. Many withdrawal symptoms and behaviors associated with active addiction can mirror other conditions. Once you're sober and stable, you can accurately assess any additional needs and make clear decisions about your next steps in recovery.
