What Is Inpatient Addiction Treatment Like?

During inpatient addiction treatment for New York City residents at Legacy Healing Center, you will move into our facility full-time for a set number of days. Your alcohol or drug rehab program will begin with a detox. Then you will transition into rehab, which includes therapy, medical care, holistic treatments like art therapy, meditation and mindfulness, and spiritual guidance as we believe in a whole-patient approach to healing, rather than only treating the addiction.

Benefits of Inpatient Addiction Treatment

During inpatient addiction treatment for New York City residents at Legacy Healing, you will:

• Stay in a welcoming and supportive environment, with comfortable beds and a home-like feel
• Be surrounded by like-minded peers who get where you are coming from
• Be away from the usual stresses, triggers, and temptations of your everyday life so you can entirely focus on your recovery
• Gain the tools you will need to remain sober and avoid temptation when you leave rehab
• Have nutritious meals, including cold-pressed juices, to help your body regain its health

Medical Detox: The First Step in Addiction Treatment

The first step in alcohol rehab or drug rehab at Legacy Healing is typically medical detox. Because withdrawal symptoms can become severe, it is essential not to detox alone or at home. We can provide a detox plan to help you manage your symptoms with our medical and psychiatric team, ensuring the process is not painful or traumatizing so that you can move forward in your treatment safely and effectively.

How Long Is Inpatient Rehab?

Inpatient addiction treatment for New York City residents at our behavioral health center generally lasts for a minimum of 30 days. If you are fully committed to yourself and your healing, we will help you get sober. A more extended treatment plan will provide you with a better chance of remaining in addiction recovery for the long term. Still, even one month away from the usual triggers and distractions of your everyday life can give you a new perspective on things and allow you to focus on your healing.

Inpatient vs. Outpatient Addiction Treatment

While all inpatient treatment occurs within the walls of our safe, sober facility, outpatient treatment is provided to you with the option to live outside the treatment center. It is usually recommended for each patient to complete at least 30 days in inpatient care before transitioning to outpatient treatment, but we do recognize that this is not possible for all patients.

We offer an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), in which you will come to our facility for nine hours per week of programming like appointments, therapy, and groups while also taking part in 12-step meetings. There is also the traditional Outpatient Program (OP), which is recommended for those who have completed a rehab program. In the OP, you will still attend one hour of therapy per week and participate in recovery activities like 12-step meetings.
