Partial day rehab centers treat drug or alcohol use disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the individual participates in various rehabilitation activities throughout the day and then returns home later in the day, from 5 to 7 days a week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect choice for alcohol or drug addicted folks who may are not prepared to pay for inpatient or residential drug rehab, or who may not be able to be away from their own families during inpatient or residential treatment. During a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, individual and in many cases family therapy and counseling for drug abuse issues while also handling whatever mental health issue is plaguing them. You should handle both issues concurrently when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term abstinence or being able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This can take several weeks or months because of the fact it's a part-time treatment option, but it's going to be worthwhile to the treatment client and their families in the end whenever they can move forward with a fresh start.
