“During this stage of treatment, patients meet with counselors, physicians, psychiatrists and psychologists to revisit goals set prior to the drug and alcohol detoxification process. By building on these original guidelines, clients and their mentors work together to create personalized plans tailored to individual success.”
– Dr. Tiffany Bell, Medical Director at The Recovery Village Columbus
What Are Residential Treatment Programs?
Residential treatment programs require patients to live on-site at a facility while receiving treatment. This means residential programs provide room and board in addition to addiction treatment services. Patients do not return home each night while in residential treatment. They receive all their meals on-site at the treatment center and have a room to call their own. Patients in residential treatment may have a roommate.
Sometimes residential treatment centers are referred to as inpatient rehab. The bottom line is these programs provide around-the-clock care and require patients to leave home for some time.
Residential or inpatient treatment is the highest level of care on the addiction treatment continuum.
You may choose this level of care over alternative options for the following reasons:
- You struggle with intense cravings: Even after you’ve completed the detoxification process, the physical and psychological temptations of substance use are still difficult to resist. Cravings can be managed in an inpatient rehab, where you will not have access to drugs like in the outside community.
- You desire a structured treatment setting: The regimented, controlled residential treatment setting can provide stability needed to develop lifelong, healthy habits. For example, in our inpatient Ohio addiction treatment center, we follow a regular schedule that helps patients develop a daily routine.
- You need separation from your triggers to focus on recovery: Continuing the path to health can be particularly challenging if you are near the people and places associated with your past substance misuse. In inpatient rehab, you can establish a period of sobriety and develop the skills needed to manage cravings without being challenged by triggers.

What To Expect in Inpatient Drug Rehab
It is a fact that the places and people associated with a person’s substance misuse can trigger intense cravings. During the residential or inpatient drug rehab process, you can expect to stay in a facility full-time to avoid environmental influences that could lead to relapse. While in an inpatient program, people work through their recovery in peace with the help of peers and professionals committed to sobriety.
To achieve the goals of residential or inpatient treatment, you can expect the following:
- Individual therapy sessions: During individual therapy sessions, clients can explore the roots of their addiction, address co-occurring disorders, assess their progress on personal goals and move closer to the change they desire.
- Group therapy sessions: This supportive environment fosters closeness among peers and helps lay the foundations of empathy and self-acceptance, which are necessary for recovery.
- Recreational therapy: Access to recreational activities, like yoga, art, fitness and sports outside of formal treatment, allows you to focus on holistic health and wellness and create a life without drugs and alcohol.
- Twenty-four-hour monitoring
- Comfortable accommodations
- Individualized medication management
- Three nutritious, well-balanced daily meals, plus snacks
Much of the work of recovery is creating a new, balanced life without drugs or alcohol. In residential treatment, you can expect to begin the transition to a new life.

What Our Patients Have To Say
What Happens After Inpatient Treatment?
After completing an inpatient treatment program, many patients continue their treatment in an outpatient setting. For patients seeking Ohio addiction treatment, we offer a partial hospitalization program, which can be a suitable step-down option after completing an inpatient program.
Regardless of what program you choose after inpatient treatment, it’s important to participate in aftercare programming. Aftercare services provide continued support through counseling, referrals and recovery resources after you complete rehab. At our Ohio drug rehab center, we believe in the importance of aftercare and offer this treatment option.
