The man visiting pub returned here to dry out (5)

I believe the answer is:

rehab

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'here to dry out' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'the man visiting pub returned' is the wordplay.
'the man' becomes 'he' (pronoun for a man).
'visiting' is an insertion indicator.
'pub' becomes 'bar' (both are drinking establishments).
'returned' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'he' placed within 'bar' is 'baher'.
'baher' back-to-front is 'REHAB'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rehab that I've seen before include "Health-restoring process" , "Treatment for addicts (abbrev.)" , "Treatment for alcohol abuse" , "convalescent home?" , "Treatment for, eg, addiction" .)
