Outpatient treatment gives treatment clients the chance to maintain specific responsibilities and aspects of their way of life while taking part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Outpatient treatment is a moderate level of rehabilitation, and shouldn't be mistaken for the degree of rehabilitation offered in an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program which is a lot more intensive. Outpatient treatment may be well suited for a person who has a brief history of drug or alcohol use as an example, but will most surely not be sufficient for someone whose rehabilitation needs go beyond that which outpatient treatment is prepared to offer. Individuals dealing with substance abuse often require an extreme environmental change, because many of the things that prompt their substance abuse are strictly environmental. For instance, if someone is being physically or psychologically abused and this is triggering their drug abuse, it's impossible for any rehabilitation endeavours to have success whenever they return to such situations on a regular basis. In outpatient treatment, individuals can take advantage of group and one-on-one counseling, along with family therapy services. In outpatient treatment, most facilities offer services six or seven days a week on either a part time or full time schedule for thirty days or longer in some instances.
