Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which may be co-occurring. Within a partial day rehab center the individual participates in various rehab services during the day and then returns home in the evening, any where from five to seven days a week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect choice for alcohol or drug addicted people who may be unable to afford inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation, or who may well not be able to be away from their families during inpatient or residential rehab. During a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, individual and in many cases family counseling and therapy for drug or alcohol use issues while handling whatever mental health issue is ailing them. You will need to address both issues simultaneously if there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term abstinence or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This will take several weeks or months simply because that it is a part-time treatment option, but it will likely be worthwhile to the rehabilitation client and their families ultimately when they can proceed with a new beginning.
