Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which may be co-occurring. Within a partial day rehab center the individual participates in various treatment services during the day and then returns home at nighttime, any where from five to seven days every week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent alternative for alcohol or drug addicted individuals who may not be able to pay for inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation, or who may well not be able to be away from their own families during inpatient or residential rehab. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one as well as family therapy and counseling for drug abuse issues whilst handling whatever mental health issue is plaguing them. You will need to address both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any kind long-term abstinence or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This can take several weeks or months simply because that it is a part-time treatment option, but it will be worth it to the rehabilitation client as well as their families in the long run when they can proceed with a new beginning.
