A structured, live-in program with daily therapy (individual and group), medical oversight, relapse-prevention education, life-skills training, and a step-down plan into outpatient care and aftercare.
Inpatient is residential and 24/7 structured, ideal for higher-acuity alcohol use disorders; outpatient lets you live at home and attend scheduled sessions several days per week.
Commonly: medical detox (when needed), residential/inpatient, intensive outpatient (IOP), medication-assisted treatment (when appropriate), and sober living/aftercare supports.
It’s a full three-month stay. Longer durations give more time to stabilize, build routines, and practice relapse-prevention skills before stepping down.
A licensed live-in facility that provides 24/7 support, evidence-based therapies, and a therapeutic community in a calm, recovery-focused setting.
Yes—look for “dual-diagnosis” or “co-occurring disorder” care that integrates mental-health and substance-use treatment.
If you meet criteria for withdrawal management, you’ll complete medically supervised detox first, then transition directly into residential care.
Programs often pair evidence-based therapies with holistic supports like fitness, mindfulness, experiential groups, and life-skills coaching.
Most centers accept major health plans and will verify benefits and any out-of-pocket costs before admission.
Comfortable clothing, basic toiletries (non-alcohol based), a list of current medications, ID/insurance card, and contact info for supports—leave prohibited items and valuables at home.
Some campuses offer private or upgraded accommodations for added comfort—availability varies by program.
Your discharge plan typically includes a warm handoff to nearby IOP, MAT (when appropriate), and sober-living/aftercare so you maintain momentum.
You should leave with an individualized relapse-prevention plan, coping tools, aftercare appointments set, and a clear routine for ongoing recovery.
Many centers include family education or therapy sessions to improve communication, boundaries, and support at home.
Many programs offer same-day or next-day assessments, followed by admission as soon as clinically appropriate and insurance is verified.

Kyle McGuckin has been a steady, reliable source helping deal with my son’s addiction issues. He always responds or calls back even on Sundays. He’s genuinely cares. 🙏🏼Posted on adam richardsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
