Residential drug treatment centers can treat both men and women together or separately. There are even some centers that provide group treatments for cultural groups.

There are some residential drug treatment centers that offer Christian drug treatment which are slightly different from the normal residential drug treatment as they also incorporate Jesus Christ into the recovery program. For some people, discovering Jesus Christ is very helpful in aiding in their recovery process.

During residential drug treatment you must stay in the center until treatment ends. This helps greatly in the recovery of a person as it provides a faster recovery under supervised conditions by keeping the patient away from the streets and temptation from returning to their old habit.

Residential drug treatment centers often provide private rooms, full meals, exercise gyms and at times smoking and non-smoking areas.

Group residential drug treatment is advantageous to drug addict patients as it permits them to support each other and can discuss their feelings with each other.

Drug addict patients are treated in two steps/ways:

There is the individual treatment where the patient is treated psychologically, emotionally and physically. Treatment is usually focused on anger management, relationship, relapse prevention, spirituality and mental health condition. A twelve-step program such as Cocaine Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous is also introduced into the recovery program.

The reality-based treatment helps patients to gradually return to the normal way of their life. Patients pursue a normal everyday life under supervision of professionals.

Whichever residential drug treatment program or center you choose, you can rest assured that you will be aided by doctors, nurses, highly trained professionals and supported by dieticians and nutritionists as well.

Every year, drug addicts are successful in their recovery. After they come out from residential drug treatment centers, they can enjoy their new life free from addiction.
