Outpatient treatment gives rehab clients the opportunity to maintain certain obligations and aspects of their way of life while taking part in drug rehabilitation services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate level of rehabilitation, and shouldn't be mistaken for the amount of rehabilitation provided within an inpatient or residential rehabilitation setting which can be significantly more intensive. Outpatient treatment could possibly be well suited for someone who has a brief history of drug or alcohol use as an example, but will certainly not be adequate for an individual whose rehab needs go beyond that which outpatient treatment is able to provide. Individuals involved in substance abuse often need an extreme environmental change, because many of the things which prompt their drug and alcohol use are strictly environmental. By way of example, if someone has been physically or psychologically mistreated and this is prompting their substance abuse, it's impossible for any treatment endeavours to have success whenever they return to such conditions on a regular basis. In outpatient treatment, clients can benefit from group and one-on-one therapy, along with family counseling services. In outpatient treatment, most facilities will provide services 6 or 7 days per week on either a part time or full-time schedule for four weeks or longer in some instances.
