What you can do for your loved one right now

Step 3
Prepare for a safe transition
We will advise you on what your loved one should bring and how to get them ready so your loved one arrives at The Bluffs ready to heal.
What your loved one can expect in rehab
Your loved one will typically begin with physician-led medical detox that lasts about 3 to 10 days, depending on substance use history and overall health, with round-the-clock monitoring and medication when appropriate. After stabilization, most people transition directly into residential inpatient treatment, where a structured daily schedule combines individual and group therapy, wellness routines, relapse-prevention skills, and dual-diagnosis support when needed. Stays are individualized, with longer-term options available, and the team begins aftercare planning early so there is a clear path forward after discharge.
Family involvement that strengthens recovery
Families are essential partners in care. The Bluffs offers family therapy and education that help you communicate clearly, set boundaries, and support recovery at home. You’ll learn how to stay involved in ways that truly help.
