Outpatient treatment gives rehabilitation clients the opportunity to sustain certain obligations and elements of their lifestyle while taking part in drug rehab services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate amount of treatment, and should not be mistaken for the level of treatment provided in an inpatient or residential treatment setting which can be a lot more extensive. Outpatient treatment may be suitable for a person who has a short history of drug abuse for instance, but will certainly not be adequate for an individual whose rehabilitation needs go beyond that which outpatient treatment is able to offer. Individuals dealing with drug and alcohol use often require a considerable environmental change, because most of the things which trigger their drug and alcohol use are purely environmental. As an example, if someone else has been physically or psychologically abused and this is prompting their drug or alcohol use, it's impossible for any treatment endeavours to succeed if they return to such conditions each day. In outpatient treatment, clients can engage in group and individual therapy, along with family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most programs will provide services six or seven days a week on either a part time or full-time basis for 30 days or longer in some cases.
