Partial day rehab centers treat substance abuse disorders and mental health disorders which might be co-occurring. In a partial day rehab center the individual participates in numerous treatment services throughout the day and after that returns home later in the day, any where from 5 to 7 days every week. Partial day rehab centers are a great option for drug or alcohol addicted individuals who may not be able to afford inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment, or who may not be able to be away from their own families whilst in 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 plaguing them. It is very important to handle both issues concurrently when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any type of long-term sobriety or being able to regain a quality lifestyle. This can take several months because of the fact it's a part-time rehab option, but it will be worth it to the rehabilitation client as well as their families in the long run when they can move forward with a brand new start.
