Why More Iowans Are Choosing Residential Rehab Over Outpatient Care

Finding the Right Fit for Long-Term Recovery

Whether it’s the need for structure, medical support, or a break from everyday stressors, residential rehab offers a level of care that’s often essential for true healing.

Here’s why residential addiction treatment may be the right choice for you or your loved one.

A Structured, 24/7 Environment Leads to Better Focus

Residential treatment gives you space to focus fully on your recovery without distractions or triggers. With 24/7 support from staff, you’re never alone as you navigate early sobriety.

• No outside stressors from work, relationships, or social media
• Daily schedules filled with therapy, group support, and wellness activities
• A safe and sober environment where healing comes first

At ThriveNow Recovery Centers, we create a structured routine that supports both emotional and physical recovery.

Medically Supervised Detox Is Essential for Many

Detoxing from substances like alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines can be dangerous without medical support. That’s why detox is often the first step in residential care.

• Monitored by medical professionals
• Medications available to ease symptoms
• Emotional support through the toughest days

ThriveNow offers on-site medical detox to ensure a safe and comfortable start to your recovery journey.

MAT Is Most Effective in a Residential Setting

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is proven to improve recovery outcomes for opioid and alcohol use disorders. But it works best when paired with daily structure, therapy, and support.

In residential rehab, we can:

• Monitor medication and adjust dosages as needed
• Integrate MAT with therapy and wellness care
• Support you through cravings and emotional challenges

ThriveNow offers MAT as part of our comprehensive treatment plans.

Faster Stabilization, Deeper Healing

With constant care and a healing-focused environment, residential rehab helps individuals stabilize faster and begin working on the underlying causes of addiction.

• Individual and group therapy
• Relapse prevention planning

This deeper healing sets the stage for sustainable, long-term recovery.
