Regular out-patient recovery is usually a less costly alternative to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the lowest intensity of formal substance abuse rehabilitation around in Swatara. Some clients are in treatment for their first time and have picked regular outpatient because of the cost and commitment to time wise and scheduling because of school, work or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a downgrade from treatment in a more intense outpatient center such as a partial hospitalization or inpatient program.
Regular out-patient treatment services usually involve group and individual counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Programs which include a more diverse range of services may include counseling (CBT) to assist with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. The length of time a person remains in rehab can vary, and a client's improvement can be evaluated from time to time and an extension of rehab can be suggested based on these evaluations.
In many situations, a regular outpatient treatment program may be lacking in intensity for a client who is addressing a severe alcohol and drug issue and has not gone to treatment before or has relapsed after prior outpatient rehab.
