Partial day rehab centers treat drug or alcohol use disorders and mental health disorders which may be co-occurring. Within a partial day rehab center the person takes part in numerous treatment activities in the daytime and then returns home at nighttime, anywhere from 5 to 7 days every week. Partial day rehab centers are a great option for drug or alcohol addicted people who may not be able to afford inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab, or who might not be able to be apart from their own families while in inpatient or residential rehabilitation. Whilst in a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and in many cases family therapy and counseling for substance abuse issues while addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. You will need to handle both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any kind long-term sobriety or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This will take several weeks or months mainly because it's a part-time rehab option, but it's going to be worthwhile to the rehabilitation client in addition to their families ultimately when they can move forward with a new beginning.
