Quick answer: Residential rehab in Las Vegas is 24/7 inpatient addiction treatment, typically 30 to 90 days, with daily therapy, psychiatric care, structured living, and a substance-free environment. It is the strongest level of care for moderate-to-severe substance use disorder. BetterChoice provides residential rehab at a private estate in southeast Las Vegas. Call (725) 550-5655.

When the substance use is severe and home is not a safe place to recover, residential rehab is the level of care that gives recovery a real chance. The 24/7 structure, the removal of triggers, and the intensity of clinical work compress months of work into weeks.

Quick Answers

What is residential rehab? Residential rehab — also called inpatient rehab — is round-the-clock addiction treatment provided in a licensed facility. Patients live on-site, receive daily individual and group therapy, psychiatric services, medical monitoring, and structured programming. Programs typically run 30 to 90 days.

How much does residential rehab cost? With insurance, most patients pay only their deductible and coinsurance. Self-pay rates: $15,000 to $30,000 for standard programs and $25,000 to $80,000 for luxury, per 30 days. Verify benefits.

Does insurance cover residential rehab? Yes. Residential treatment is covered by all major commercial insurers as medically necessary care. Authorizations are reviewed every 7 to 14 days based on clinical progress.

How long is residential rehab? 30 to 90 days, with longer stays consistently producing better outcomes. Most patients then step down to PHP, IOP, and standard outpatient.

Structure of Residential Rehab

The clinical day at BetterChoice is full and intentional. Patients wake at consistent times, eat together, and follow a predictable schedule of therapy, wellness activities, recreation, and community. The structure itself is therapeutic — addiction often develops in the absence of structure, and rebuilding consistent rhythm is foundational to recovery.

Clinical components include:

  • Daily individual therapy with a primary therapist
  • Group therapy multiple times per day (process group, CBT skills, psychoeducation, dual diagnosis)
  • Weekly psychiatric appointments
  • 24/7 medical and nursing availability
  • Family programming and weekly family therapy
  • Wellness activities (yoga, meditation, exercise, art therapy)
  • Mutual aid meetings (12-step or SMART Recovery) on-site
  • Recreation and community building
  • Quiet time for reflection and reading

Daily Life in Treatment

A typical day looks like:

  • Morning: wake, vitals, medications, breakfast, morning community meeting, wellness activity
  • Late morning: individual therapy, then group therapy
  • Afternoon: specialty groups (trauma, dual diagnosis, family systems), recreational therapy
  • Evening: dinner, mutual aid meeting, evening community, wind-down

The pace is steady but not frantic. Patients consistently report that the rhythm of the day — predictable, paced, oriented toward healing — is one of the most stabilizing things about residential treatment.

Who Is Residential Rehab For?

Residential is the right level of care for patients who:

  • Have moderate-to-severe substance use disorder
  • Have a history of relapse after outpatient attempts
  • Have an unstable, unsafe, or high-trigger home environment
  • Have co-occurring mental health diagnoses requiring stabilization
  • Are coming off medical detox and need continued structured support
  • Need the privacy and discretion of an inpatient setting

FAQs

Can I leave if I want to? Residential is voluntary. Patients can leave against medical advice (AMA), though our clinical team works hard to address concerns and keep patients engaged.

What can I bring? Modest clothing, hygiene items, prescriptions in original bottles, approved electronics. We provide a complete packing list.

Can my family visit? Yes, with structured visitation typically beginning after the first week.

What happens after residential? Discharge planning begins on day one. Standard step-down is to PHP or IOP.
