No. PHP is an intensive outpatient level of care. Patients attend structured clinical programming during the day but do not live in the clinical facility. Eligible Brooks PHP patients may use supportive housing in Tullahoma.
We provide a safe, comfortable detox environment where you can regain your baseline health while a team of medically trained professionals takes care of you.
With residential recovery, you can submerge yourself in a structured, supervised, and supportive environment to heal your mind and body.
For someone leaving Smithville or the surrounding DeKalb County communities, medically supported detox can create a safer starting point than attempting withdrawal alone. The Normandy clinical team reviews substance use, health history, withdrawal risk, and current symptoms before developing an appropriate protocol.
Once symptoms are more stable, planning turns toward what comes next. When indicated, the patient can continue into residential treatment at the same campus rather than losing momentum between providers.
Residential care gives Smithville-area patients a structured environment away from the familiar pressures of home, work, and social routines. Daily programming is designed to help patients understand patterns of use, strengthen coping skills, and practice recovery within a supportive community.
The plan is shaped by the individual’s clinical needs, not simply by where they live. Co-occurring symptoms, trauma history, family relationships, physical health, and previous treatment all help determine priorities.
A Smithville patient may use PHP as a deliberate bridge between residential care and a less structured schedule. The program maintains intensive daytime treatment while allowing more responsibility for managing evenings and other time outside programming.
Supportive housing in Tullahoma may be available to eligible Brooks PHP patients. This can give someone from DeKalb County a stable place to practice new routines before deciding when to return home.
Recovery plans for Smithville residents need to work beyond the campus. Before discharge, the team considers family responsibilities, transportation, local provider access, exposure to past triggers, and the amount of accountability available in DeKalb County.
Recommendations may include PHP, intensive outpatient or outpatient services, recovery housing, mutual-support meetings, medication follow-up, and clear steps for responding to cravings or a lapse. Each recommendation is tied to the patient’s current level of need.
