rehab program

Structured addiction treatment

A rehab program is a structured course of treatment for addiction, injury, or illness.

Most commonly it refers to substance abuse rehabilitation—inpatient or outpatient programs combining therapy, medical supervision, and support groups: The judge ordered him into a rehab program.

Physical rehab programs help patients recover movement and function after surgery or injury.
