Outpatient treatment gives rehabilitation clients the opportunity to sustain certain obligations and aspects of their way of life while getting involved in drug and alcohol treatment services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate level of rehab, and should not be mistaken for the amount of treatment offered within an inpatient or residential rehab setting which is much more intensive. Outpatient treatment could be suitable for somebody who has a brief history of drug or alcohol use as an example, but will almost certainly not be adequate for someone whose rehabilitation needs exceed what outpatient treatment is prepared to offer. Individuals involved in drug abuse often require an extreme environmental change, because many of the things that trigger their drug and alcohol use are strictly environmental. By way of example, when someone is being physically or emotionally mistreated and this is prompting their drug or alcohol use, there is no way for any rehabilitation endeavours to succeed should they go back to such circumstances every day. In outpatient treatment, individuals can benefit from group and one-on-one therapy, in addition to family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most facilities offer services 6 or 7 days a week on either a part-time or full time basis for 1 month or longer in some cases.
