Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the individual participates in numerous rehabilitation services during the day after which returns home later in the day, anywhere from 5 to 7 days per week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent choice for drug or alcohol addicted people who may not be able to afford inpatient or residential drug treatment, or who might not have the ability to be apart from their own families while in inpatient or residential rehabilitation. During a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, individual and in many cases family counseling and therapy for substance abuse issues while also addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is very important to handle both issues concurrently when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any kind of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This could take several weeks or months because of the fact that it is a part-time treatment option, but it'll be worth it to the rehabilitation client as well as their families ultimately whenever they can proceed with a whole new start.
