Intensive Inpatient

The Washington Intensive Inpatient Program provides 24-hour, residential treatment for individuals with severe or chronic substance use disorders. This highly structured and supportive environment is designed to help individuals stabilize, address the root causes of addiction, and build a foundation for long-term recovery.

This level of care is ideal for those who have not succeeded in outpatient treatment, are experiencing serious withdrawal symptoms, or are at high risk of relapse.

Key features of the Intensive Inpatient Program include:

  • 24/7 medical supervision and support
  • Structured daily schedules with therapy, education, and wellness activities
  • Individual and group counseling sessions led by licensed professionals
  • Behavioral therapies to address underlying mental health or trauma-related issues
  • Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) when appropriate
  • Life skills training and relapse prevention planning
  • Discharge planning and aftercare referrals for continued support

Length of stay typically ranges from 28 to 90 days, depending on individual needs and clinical assessments. Treatment is provided in a safe, substance-free environment with access to medical professionals, counselors, and peer support.

This program is commonly recommended for:

  • High-risk or chronic substance users
  • Court-ordered treatment cases
  • Clients needing detox followed by intensive care
  • Individuals with co-occurring psychiatric conditions

Graduates of the program leave with a personalized recovery plan and connections to ongoing support services, such as outpatient treatment, sober housing, and peer support groups.
