Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the individual participates in numerous treatment services throughout the day and then returns home later in the day, anywhere from five to seven days per week. Partial day rehab centers are a great choice for alcohol or drug addicted people who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential drug treatment, or who may not have the ability to be away from their families during inpatient or residential rehab. During a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and in many cases family therapy and counseling for substance abuse issues while also addressing whatever mental health issue is ailing them. You will need to handle both issues concurrently when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term abstinence and be able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This could take several months due to the fact that it is a part-time rehab option, but it'll be worth it for the treatment client and their families ultimately when they can move forward with a new beginning.
