Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which might be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the person participates in various rehabilitation services during the day after which returns home later in the day, any where from 5 to 7 days every week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent option for alcohol or drug addicted individuals who may struggle to pay for inpatient or residential drug rehab, or who might not exactly be able to be apart from their loved ones when in inpatient or residential rehab. Whilst in a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one and in many cases family therapy and counseling for drug abuse issues whilst addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is very important to handle both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term abstinence or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This can take several months because of the fact that it is a part-time treatment option, but it will be worth it for the rehab client and their families in the end whenever they can proceed with a fresh beginning.
