Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which might be co-occurring. Within a partial day rehab center the individual participates in various treatment services in daytime after which returns home later in the day, from 5 to 7 days a week. Partial day rehab centers are an excellent choice for alcohol or drug addicted people who may be unable to pay for inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation, or who may not have the ability to be away from their families when in inpatient or residential rehab. While in a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one and even family counseling and therapy for drug abuse issues while addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is very important to address both issues simultaneously when there is any any expectation for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This may take several months mainly because it's a part-time treatment option, but it'll be worth it to the rehabilitation client in addition to their families in the end when they can move forward with a whole new start.
