Outpatient treatment gives rehab clients the chance to sustain certain obligations and aspects of their life-style while getting involved in drug rehab services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate level of rehabilitation, and shouldn't be mistaken for the degree of rehabilitation provided within an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program that's much more intensive. Outpatient treatment could be suited to someone who has a brief history of drug abuse for example, but will most definitely not be sufficient for an individual whose treatment needs exceed that which outpatient treatment is able to provide. Individuals dealing with substance abuse often need a considerable environmental change, because most of the things which trigger their drug abuse are strictly environmental. As an example, when someone has been physically or psychologically mistreated and this is prompting their drug or alcohol use, it's impossible for any rehab efforts to have success whenever they return to such circumstances every day. In outpatient treatment, clients can take advantage of group and one-on-one therapy, as well as family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most centers offer services six or seven days each week on either a part-time or full-time schedule for 1 month or longer in some cases.
