Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which can be co-occurring. Within a partial day rehab center the individual takes part in various rehab activities during the day and after that returns home in the evening, any where from 5 to 7 days per week. Partial day rehab centers are a great choice for alcohol or drug addicted people who may not be able to afford inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment, or who might not be able to be apart from their own families during inpatient or residential rehabilitation. Whilst in a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one and even family counseling and therapy for substance abuse issues while also handling whatever mental health issue is ailing them. You will need to handle both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety and be able to regain a quality lifestyle. This will take several months due to the fact it's a part-time rehab option, but it's going to be worth it for the rehabilitation client along with their families in the long run when they can move forward with a fresh start.
