With so many different rehab options in Post to decide on it can be difficult deciding which program would be best for yourself or a family member. If you cannot afford or commit to inpatient or residential treatment there are outpatient options that are more intense than regular outpatient care, such as outpatient day treatment that is also at times referred to as partial hospitalization. The most apparent difference is that individuals do not remain at the center like in inpatient, and return home after treatment each day. Outpatient day treatment or partial hospitalization typically consists of treatment services being offered at least 5 days per week, for up to eight hrs each day. Aside from this service being used as a main treatment option, outpatient day treatment or partial hospitalization can also be of help to people who have completed inpatient treatment reintegrate back into a drug-free lifestyle.
Rehabilitation services include traditional rehab services such as individual counseling and group therapy, but there are also relapse prevention services put into place in most cases like support groups that are known to help prevent bad habits and inspire clients to remain sober and get treatment. For individuals having trouble with a co-occurring mental health disorder, many outpatient day treatment or partial hospitalization centers also offer rehab for dual diagnosis.
