Outpatient treatment gives rehabilitation clients the opportunity to sustain specific responsibilities and aspects of their lifestyle while taking part in drug rehabilitation services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate degree of rehab, and should not be mistaken for the amount of rehabilitation offered in an inpatient or residential treatment setting which can be significantly more extensive. Outpatient treatment may be well suited for a person who has a brief history of substance abuse as an example, but will almost certainly not be adequate for somebody whose treatment needs go beyond what outpatient treatment is prepared to provide. Individuals dealing with drug and alcohol use often require an extreme environmental change, because most of the things which trigger their drug and alcohol use are purely environmental. For example, if a person is being physically or psychologically mistreated and this is triggering their drug abuse, it's impossible for any rehab endeavours to have success whenever they go back to such conditions each day. In outpatient treatment, clients can take advantage of group and one-on-one counseling, along with family counseling services. In outpatient treatment, most facilities will provide services 6 or 7 days each week on either a part time or full-time schedule for 30 days or longer in some cases.
