Partial day rehab centers treat drug or alcohol use disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the person takes part in various rehab activities in daytime after which returns home later in the day, between 5 to 7 days every week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent alternative for drug or alcohol addicted individuals who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential drug rehab, or who might not exactly be able to be apart from their families 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 substance abuse issues while also handling whatever mental health disorder is ailing them. It is important to address both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety and be able to regain a quality lifestyle. This could take several months because of the fact that it is a part-time rehabilitation option, but it'll be worth it to the rehab client in addition to their families in the long run whenever they can proceed with a whole new beginning.
