The 10 types of people who need residential drug rehab
January 3, 2009
Residential drug rehab isn’t right for everyone. There are certainly those with a drug addiction who can benefit from the day-in/night-at-home structure of an outpatient program and still achieve recovery. However, if one of the following people sounds like you, or someone you know, it might be time to consider a residential drug rehab program.

- Those who have tried outpatient drug rehab and relapsed
- Those who find that combination of 12-step programs such as AA and outpatient treatment just isn’t doing the trick
- Those who have co-occurring medical problems that require constant medical care
- Those who experience too much temptation or too many distractions in their home environment
- Those who need solitude in order to focus solely on their recovery
- Those who are addicted to more than one drug, or drugs and alcohol at the same time
- Those with a dual diagnosis of a mental illness and an addiction
- Those who are concerned that they may be a direct danger to themselves or others
- Those who want to take a more comprehensive approach to drug addiction treatment
- Those who require the additional structure that residential drug rehab can offer
