Hospital Inpatient - Lake Buena VistaAn individual who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are geared towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict needs this level of care, it is beneficial to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to even up to a month. Once the hospital inpatient portion of their recovery is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
