Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders that could be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the person participates in various rehabilitation services in daytime and then returns home at night, from five to seven days a week. Partial day rehab centers are an ideal choice for alcohol or drug addicted people who may struggle to afford inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab, or who may not be able to be apart from their loved ones during inpatient or residential treatment. During a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, one-on-one and even family counseling and therapy for drug or alcohol use issues while also handling whatever mental health issue is ailing them. It is important to handle both issues concurrently if there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This may take several weeks or months because of the fact that it is a part-time treatment option, but it will be worthwhile to the treatment client in addition to their families in the long run whenever they can proceed with a fresh start.
