Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the individual takes part in numerous rehabilitation activities in the daytime then returns home at nighttime, between 5 to 7 days a week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect selection for alcohol or drug addicted people who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab, or who may not be able to be apart from their loved ones while in inpatient or residential rehabilitation. During a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and even family therapy and counseling for drug abuse issues while also addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is important to address both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any kind of long-term sobriety and be able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This may take several months mainly because it's a part-time rehabilitation option, but it will be worth it to the rehab client along with their families ultimately when they can proceed with a brand new start.
