Inpatient rehab, explained
Medically reviewed by Mitchell Naficy, MD, Medical Director · Updated October 2026
Residential rehab, often called inpatient rehab, means you live at the treatment center full time while you recover from drug or alcohol addiction. Instead of fitting therapy around daily life, your days are built around treatment, rest, nutrition and movement, away from the people and places tied to using.
It’s the most intensive level of care outside a hospital. For many people it follows medical detox and comes before step-down care such as a partial hospitalization program (PHP) or intensive outpatient program (IOP).
At Oceans, residential treatment happens in a private, six-bed home in San Clemente, Orange County, the same home where detox takes place. There’s no transfer and no second intake.
| Residential rehab at Oceans | |
|---|---|
| Length | Typically 30 days |
| Before | On-site medical detox, usually about 7 days, when needed |
| Medical care | 24/7 nursing and physician oversight |
| Therapy | A primary therapist, CBT and DBT, family involvement where it helps |
| Mental health | Care for co-occurring anxiety, depression or trauma |
| Size | No more than 6 clients at a time |
| After | PHP, IOP, outpatient care or sober living |
What treatment includes
Every plan is individual. These are the core parts of residential care, and your team adjusts the mix as you progress.
One clinician who knows your story and leads your plan, with evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT.
Nursing staff on site around the clock, under physician oversight, including medication-assisted treatment when appropriate.
Family therapy where it helps recovery, and couples rehab for partners who want to go through treatment together.
Anxiety, depression and trauma treated alongside addiction through our dual diagnosis program.
Luxury rehab in Orange County should mean privacy, space and attention, in a setting that lets you focus on getting well. At Oceans, with only six beds, your days are built around you, not a schedule made for a crowd.
No more than 6 clients are in treatment at a time.
Two private rooms and two double rooms. See our private rooms

Is inpatient right for you?
Not everyone needs residential care. A clinician will help you decide, but inpatient rehab is often recommended when:

| Inpatient (residential) | Outpatient | |
|---|---|---|
| Where you live | At the treatment center | At home or in sober living |
| Intensity | Treatment and support all day | Scheduled sessions, from a few hours a week to full days |
| Medical care | Around the clock | During sessions |
| Best for | Starting recovery, higher needs | Stepping down, or milder needs |
Oceans offers both, so your care team stays the same as you step down to PHP or IOP.
Your care is led by licensed clinicians you’ll know by name.
