Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the person participates in various treatment services throughout the day and after that returns home in the evening, any where from five to seven days per week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect option for alcohol or drug addicted folks who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment, or who may not be able to be away from their loved ones while in inpatient or residential treatment. During a partial day rehab center, individuals take part in group, one-on-one as well as family counseling and therapy for substance abuse issues while addressing whatever mental health issue is ailing them. You will need to address both issues concurrently if there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term abstinence or being able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This may take several weeks because of the fact that it is a part-time rehab option, but it will be worthwhile to the rehab client as well as their families eventually when they can move forward with a new start.
