Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which might be co-occurring. Inside a partial day rehab center the individual participates in various rehabilitation services in the daytime then returns home later in the day, anywhere from 5 to 7 days a week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent alternative for drug or alcohol addicted people who may be unable to pay for inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment, or who might not exactly have the ability to be away from their loved ones while in inpatient or residential rehab. During a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and in many cases family counseling and therapy for drug abuse issues whilst addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is important to address both issues simultaneously if there is any hope for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term sobriety and be able to regain a quality lifestyle. This will take several weeks or months because of the fact it's a part-time rehab option, but it will be worthwhile to the treatment client and their families ultimately when they can move forward with a fresh beginning.
