A qualified professional may consider substance use, withdrawal risk, physical and mental health, home environment, previous treatment and the support available after discharge. The appropriate starting point can differ from person to person and may change during recovery.
Detox focuses on helping someone stop using alcohol or drugs as safely as possible. Withdrawal from alcohol, benzodiazepines and some other substances can be medically serious, so professional assessment is important. Detox addresses stabilization; continuing treatment usually addresses the behavioral and practical work of recovery.
Learn about detoxResidential programs provide a structured living environment with support available throughout the day. They may be considered when withdrawal risk, repeated relapse, an unstable home environment or co-occurring concerns make a higher level of structure appropriate.
Explore residential careOutpatient care allows a person to live at home while attending scheduled services. Programs range from regular outpatient counseling to intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization. Suitability depends on clinical needs, safety, transportation and the stability of the recovery environment.
Compare inpatient and outpatient careRecovery often continues well beyond an initial program. Discharge planning may include therapy, medical follow-up, peer support, sober living, medication when clinically appropriate and a plan for responding to cravings or recurrence of use.
Review continuing supportChoosing responsibly
A polished website does not establish quality of care. Confirm licensing and accreditation where applicable, ask who provides clinical and medical services, understand how emergencies are handled, and request a clear explanation of costs and insurance.
Find Addiction Rehabs provides educational information and may help visitors identify options. We are not a substitute for an independent clinical assessment, and inclusion in a directory is not a guarantee that a facility is appropriate for a particular person.
Resources by location
Location can affect licensing, available services, insurance networks and travel considerations. Start with a state resource, then confirm current program details directly with the provider and your insurer.
Common questions
A qualified professional may assess current substance use, withdrawal and overdose risk, physical and mental health, previous treatment, living environment and ability to participate safely. That assessment can help determine whether detox, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient or another level of support may be appropriate.
Inpatient or residential treatment includes living at the program while receiving structured services. Outpatient treatment allows a person to live elsewhere and attend scheduled care. Outpatient programs vary considerably in intensity, and neither setting is automatically right for everyone.
Many plans include behavioral-health and substance-use benefits, but coverage depends on the specific policy, provider network, medical-necessity criteria, authorization requirements and selected program. A benefits check is not a guarantee of payment, so written confirmation from the insurer and provider is important.
Some people consider out-of-state treatment for privacy, program availability or distance from triggers. Before traveling, confirm that the program can meet the person's clinical needs, that insurance or payment arrangements are clear, and that transportation and discharge planning have been addressed.
You can ask general questions and discuss what kind of help you are seeking. If you choose to share information, it may be used to help identify potential options. A call does not create a treatment relationship or obligate you to enter a program. For a medical emergency call 911; for crisis support call or text 988.
