Partial day rehab centers treat drug or alcohol use disorders and mental health disorders which may be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the person participates in numerous treatment activities in daytime then returns home at night, anywhere from five to seven days per week. Partial day rehab centers are an ideal choice for drug or alcohol addicted people who may not be able to afford inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab, or who might not have the ability to be away from their loved ones when in inpatient or residential rehab. Whilst in a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, one-on-one and even family counseling and therapy for substance abuse issues whilst addressing whatever mental health disorder is ailing them. You will need to handle both issues simultaneously when there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any kind long-term abstinence or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This may take several weeks simply because it's a part-time rehabilitation option, but it will be worth it for the treatment client in addition to their families ultimately whenever they can proceed with a new start.
