Regular Outpatient Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Agency, IA.

Regular outpatient rehabilitation is usually a less expensive alternative to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient rehab, and is the lowest intensity of formal alcohol or drug rehab around in Agency. Some people are in rehab for their first time and have chosen regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and time commitment and logistically because of school, work or other obligations. For many, regular outpatient is a "step-down" to service following treatment in a more intensive outpatient center like a partial hospitalization or in-patient center.

Regular out-patient recovery options usually offer individual and group counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Centers that include a wider range of services may include counseling (behavioral therapy) to help with relapse prevention and dual-diagnosis services to help address co-occurring substance abuse and mental health issues. The length of time someone stays in treatment can change from client to client, and a person's progress can be judged occasionally and more treatment can be recommended based on these evaluations.

In many situations, a regular outpatient rehabilitation program is going to be lacking in intensity for a person who is facing a chronic alcohol and drug problem and has not experienced treatment previously or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient recovery.
