What Is Inpatient Treatment?
Inpatient treatment is a licensed classification of care where individuals stay onsite to receive consistent medical oversight and therapeutic support. Within this classification, residential treatment and detox programs represent distinct levels of care:
- Detox provides medically supervised withdrawal management. Visit our detox page to learn more about this program.
- Residential treatment is a live-in program that offers 24/7 support, supervision, and structure. At RCA Lighthouse, this level of care is ideal for individuals who:
- Have just completed detox and need continued stabilization
- Are dealing with severe addiction or dual diagnosis
- Have relapsed and require immersive care
- Need separation from triggers or high-risk environments
- Want to develop a strong recovery foundation before transitioning home
The goal of inpatient care is to help patients gain insight into their addiction, learn healthy coping skills, and prepare to re-engage with life in a new, sober way.
A Day in Inpatient Residential Treatment at RCA Lighthouse
Every day in our residential program, we follow a structured schedule that balances clinical treatment, peer support, wellness activities, and personal development. This helps patients rebuild daily routines and gain accountability—essential for sustained recovery.
Typical programming includes:
- Morning meditation or check-ins to start the day mindfully
- Daily group therapy sessions focused on processing, skill-building, and support
- One-on-one counseling to explore personal issues and treatment goals
- Educational lectures and psychoeducation on addiction, mental health, and relapse prevention
- Family involvement through therapy and educational programming
- Wellness opportunities like exercise, art therapy, recreational time, or journaling
Each patient is cared for by a dedicated team, including a primary therapist, case manager, and medical provider, who work collaboratively to tailor an individualized plan, track progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
