Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders that could be co-occurring. Inside a partial day rehab center the individual participates in numerous treatment activities in daytime and then returns home later in the day, any where from five to seven days every week. Partial day rehab centers are a great alternative for alcohol or drug addicted individuals who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation, or who might not exactly be able to be away from their families when in inpatient or residential rehab. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one and in many cases family therapy and counseling for drug or alcohol use issues while also handling whatever mental health disorder is ailing them. You should address both issues simultaneously if there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term sobriety and be able to regain a quality lifestyle. This will take several months due to the fact that it is a part-time rehabilitation option, but it will likely be worth it for the treatment client as well as their families eventually whenever they can move forward with a new beginning.
