Outpatient treatment gives rehab clients the chance to sustain specific responsibilities and elements of their way of life while taking part in drug and alcohol rehab services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate level of rehabilitation, and should not be mistaken for the level of rehabilitation offered within an inpatient or residential treatment setting that is a lot more extensive. Outpatient treatment could be suited to somebody who has a short history of drug or alcohol use as an example, but will most definitely not be sufficient for a person whose treatment needs exceed that which outpatient treatment is able to provide. Individuals involved in drug abuse often require a considerable environmental change, because most of the things which trigger their substance abuse are purely environmental. For instance, if someone has been physically or emotionally abused and this is triggering their drug abuse, it's impossible for any rehabilitation endeavours to succeed should they return to such circumstances on a regular basis. In outpatient treatment, individuals can benefit from group and one-on-one counseling, as well as family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most programs will provide services six or seven days per week on either a part-time or full-time basis for thirty days or longer in some instances.
