Regular Outpatient Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Altona, NY.

Regular outpatient rehab is mostly a less expensive choice to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol treatment around in Altona. Some people are attending rehab for their first time and have picked regular outpatient because of the cost and time commitment and logistically because of work, school or other obligations. In some cases, regular outpatient is a "step-down" to service following treatment in a more intensive outpatient facility such as a partial hospitalization or in-patient facility.

Regular out-patient treatment options usually involve some kind of individual and group counseling services delivered once maybe twice per week. Programs which offer a wider spectrum of services may include psychotherapies (behavioral therapy) to help with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. The length of time a client stays in treatment can change from client to client, and a client's improvement can be evaluated from time to time and an extension of treatment can be recommended contingent upon these conclusions.

In many cases, a regular outpatient recovery program may be insufficient in intensity for someone who is attempting to address a bad substance abuse issue and has never experienced rehab previously or has relapsed after prior outpatient recovery.
