Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders that could be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the individual takes part in various treatment activities in the daytime after which returns home at nighttime, any where from five to seven days per week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect option for alcohol or drug addicted folks who may be unable to pay for inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation, or who might not have the ability to be away from their families when in inpatient or residential treatment. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, one-on-one and in many cases family counseling and therapy for substance abuse issues while handling whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is important to address both issues simultaneously if there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any kind 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 rehabilitation option, but it will likely be worthwhile to the treatment client and their families eventually when they can proceed with a new start.
