El Monte, CA Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers

In a residential treatment program, the patient will stay in the facility 24 hours a day, and he or she will have access to healthcare professionals during that time. A residential treatment program typically lasts somewhere between 30 and 90 days, though there are some programs that are shorter or longer.

In a partial hospitalization program (PHP), the patient will be in the facility for 6 to 8 hours during the day, and he or she will be permitted to go home in the evenings, assuming he or she has access to a safe and stable environment.

In an outpatient treatment program, the patient will be at the facility for 10 to 20 hours during the week. This may be every day in the mornings or 2 to 3 days for a longer period, but patients in this program are still able to work.

Alcoholics Anonymous is an internationally recognized fellowship group founded in 1935. Its main purpose is to help alcoholics achieve and maintain sobriety. The group is open to anyone, and there are no age requirements. The only thing necessary for membership is a desire to stop drinking. AA members learn to analyze those aspects of their life that contribute to alcohol dependency and find new tools and techniques to help them live a sober life.
