Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the individual takes part in various rehabilitation activities in daytime after which returns home at nighttime, anywhere from five to seven days every week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent choice for drug or alcohol addicted individuals who may be unable to pay for inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation, or who may well not be able to be away from their loved ones during inpatient or residential rehabilitation. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and even family counseling and therapy for drug or alcohol use issues whilst addressing whatever mental health issue is plaguing them. It is very important to handle both issues simultaneously if there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This may take several weeks or months mainly because that it is a part-time rehabilitation option, but it will likely be worth it to the rehabilitation client and their families in the long run when they can move forward with a whole new start.
