Hospital inpatient programs are rehabilitation facilities for substance abuse, which offer an exclusive and medical setting for those in recovery. A hospital inpatient program might be a beneficial selection for somebody who has a co-occurring mental health disorder, and for someone with other medical needs which should be overseen by medical professionals. People who partake in that program can be helped by mental health services while addressing issues who have prompted their drug use.

For example, even slight environmental changes in one's life can alleviate stress and place a whole new perspective on things so that the individual doesn't feel compelled to abuse alcohol or drugs. Therapy within a hospital inpatient program can help expose such problems so they can be resolved.
