Are you or is someone you know struggling with addiction to drugs or alcohol? You’re not alone. Millions of United States citizens are just like you, looking for help. The best time for substance abuse treatment is always now, and our admissions specialists are ready for your call.

Detox and Inpatient rehab at a residential addiction treatment center is largely regarded as the best way to recover from substance abuse. Once the drug and alcohol detox process is complete, it’s always recommended that the person recovering enter a residential inpatient rehab. At Riverwalk’s Dallas Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center, patients can escape to 27 acres of beautiful Dallas ranchland full of enjoyable activities to get their minds right.

Our sanctuary away from the temptation of drugs and alcohol alongside premier therapy for each individual supports the rehabilitation of all our patients.

What Is Inpatient Rehab?

The term inpatient rehab refers to addiction treatment in a closed-environment where a patient stays overnight for a minimum of 4 weeks. Often, inpatient treatment is done in a residential setting rather than a traditional hospital, coining the term “residential rehab.” This is why you may hear the terms “inpatient rehab” and “residential rehab” used interchangeably. They are essentially the same thing.

Riverwalk’s addiction treatment center in Dallas is a residential inpatient rehab. And though it’s not a hospital, our facility comes equipped with addiction-specific medical doctors, psychologists, licensed therapists, and medications.

Why Choose an Inpatient Rehab?

Inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is the highest level of care that an alcoholic or drug addict can receive, resulting in the highest success rate of long-term recovery when compared to other options. The highly structured residential setting allows patients to reassess their past behavioral patterns free from outside influences. Inpatient rehab centers offer quality support and will lay down the foundation for relapse prevention.

It’s important to know that addiction affects people differently, and the treatment of substance use disorders will vary for each person. That’s why patients attending our residential inpatient rehab will be given an individualized treatment plan developed by the finest addiction specialists in Dallas. With close monitoring and a personalized approach, patients have all the support they will need for successful rehabilitation.

Addiction Treatment Options: Outpatient vs. Inpatient

• Inpatient Programs: Inpatient programs require the patient to remain on the facility fulltime and have minimal contact with the rest of the world. This is often the right choice for patients who are unable to resist the temptation of using drugs and alcohol. While less convenient than an outpatient program, inpatient treatment provides more security. It also gives those who struggle with substance abuse boundaries that they would not otherwise have. This is especially true for people who have gone through medical detox. Once the damaging substance has left the body, the mind must be re-taught how to reward the body for natural healthy behavior. It is for this reason that it is best to go through an inpatient rehab after detox.
• Outpatient Programs: Outpatient programs do not require the client to stay on the property overnight. Patients live at home and attend their program at the facility during the day or evening. Outpatient treatment is an excellent option for those who are unable to leave or suspend their other commitments. It allows them the opportunity to stay in school or remain at their workplaces, as well as fulfill personal obligations. Although outpatient programs could be considered more convenient, that does not mean it is the best option for everyone.

The Benefits of Inpatient Addiction Treatment

Along with individualized treatment, staying at an inpatient rehab will provide support groups through therapeutic communities. This community that consists of other residents and staff offers another aspect to inpatient treatment. By providing a support system and creating a healthy social environment through an inpatient program, patients can begin to rebuild their lives.

According to an article published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, "Addiction is viewed in the context of an individual's social and psychological deficits, and treatment focuses on developing personal accountability and responsibility as well as socially productive lives."

At the start of the admission process, the patient is thoroughly evaluated, and an individualized treatment plan is created. Patients are typically recommended treatment that is individually designed to meet their specific needs, therefore, may vary in length. The patient will step down to a lower level of care after the initial inpatient level of care (detox & inpatient residential).

While every patient is different, each treatment plan shares specific methods. And note that individualized treatment is provided for patients whether or not they choose an inpatient program.

During the inpatient period, our Riverwalk Ranch drug & alcohol treatment center provides:

• 24 hour/day monitoring by addiction treatment specialist
• Medication management
• Education on addiction
• Individual therapy
• Group therapy
• A set of treatment goals
• Equine therapy

Additional Benefits of an Inpatient Rehab Program

To provide the most effective and thorough inpatient treatment for long-term recovery, Riverwalk divides clients into smaller, comprehensive groups. It is allowing for focused attention and tailored treatment based on the individual needs of each client. Placement is based on age, substance abuse history, and other factors that may affect the recovery process, such as co-occurring mental health issues.

Inpatient rehab programs allow patients a chance to take a step away from the people, places, and things that contribute to their addictive behavior. Within the residential environment, patients are provided three healthy meals a day, eight hours of sleep, and are free from everyday stresses.

We create an environment that encourages clients not to give in to temptations. Relapse prevention is one of our main goals and is at the center of all our recovery programs. With the types of treatment Riverwalk provides, we can successfully create a healthy lifestyle for our clients.

Once our patients acclimate to this setting, they will not only enjoy the support of our staff but their fellow patients as well. There is a direct correlation between therapeutic communities and an addict's ability to stay sober. The kinship shared by patients living together in a residential facility gives them the accountability and community necessary to remain sober after they leave treatment.
