Partial day rehab centers treat drug or alcohol use disorders and mental health disorders that could be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the person takes part in numerous treatment activities during the day then returns home later in the day, from 5 to 7 days every week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent option for alcohol or drug addicted people who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential drug treatment, or who may well not have the ability to be apart from their own families whilst in inpatient or residential rehabilitation. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, individual and in many cases family therapy and counseling for substance abuse issues while handling whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is important to address both issues simultaneously if there is any hope for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This may take several weeks or months because of the fact it's a part-time rehab option, but it'll be worthwhile to the treatment client and their families ultimately when they can move forward with a fresh start.
