Outpatient treatment gives rehabilitation clients the chance to maintain certain obligations and aspects of their lifestyle while getting involved in drug rehabilitation services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate degree of rehab, and shouldn't be mistaken for the level of treatment offered in an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program that is significantly more extensive. Outpatient treatment could be suitable for anyone who has a brief history of drug abuse for example, but will almost certainly not be sufficient for someone whose rehabilitation needs go beyond what outpatient treatment is able to offer. Individuals dealing with drug and alcohol use often need a considerable change of environment, because many of the things that trigger their substance abuse are strictly environmental. As an example, if a person is being physically or psychologically mistreated and this is triggering their drug or alcohol use, there is no way for any treatment endeavours to achieve success whenever they go back to such situations on a regular basis. In outpatient treatment, individuals can take advantage of group and one-on-one therapy, in addition to family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most facilities offer services five to seven days a week on either a part time or full-time basis for thirty days or longer in some cases.
