  1. Residential Treatment Center Residential treatment, also called residential rehabilitation or inpatient rehab, describes either a mental health facility or a drug and/or alcohol or process addiction treatment program that is provided to patients in a residential setting. Some residential treatment centers specialize in only one illness, such as eating disorders or substance abuse. The term does not usually refer to treatments in hospitals or centers specializing in physical or occupational therapy, but rather to centers for long-term treatment for substance abuse disorders and other mental problems in which patients live in facilities together with other patients and therapists, receiving therapy and medication on a 24-hour basis

Model residential programs encourage and provide opportunities for family therapy and contact through on-site visits, home passes, telephone calls and other modes of communication. • Nonviolent and predictable ways to help youth with emotional and behavioral issues. The use of physical punishment, manipulation or intimidation should not occur in any residential treatment program.

Residential Treatment Center Matching of Facility Resources and Patient Needs: Once the decision is made that residential treatment is a useful treatment modality to consider, patients and their clinicians face the formidable task of selecting among the myriad facilities that advertise nationwide. Like therapists, residential facilities vary widely in their goals, their theoretical orientation and treatment paradigms, and the specific features of their treatment settings. Residential treatment centers also vary widely in their geographic distribution, cost, emphasis on amenities, emphasis on group cohesiveness within the milieu, and length of stay.

Social workers and clients seeking markers of quality are urged to ask many questions before committing to a particular program. High-quality residential facilities tend to subject themselves to scrutiny and oversight by state licensing authorities or other entities providing accreditation for healthcare organizations.
