What’s Different About Residential and Outpatient Services?

Outpatient rehabilitation services can give you the opportunity to quit using drugs or alcohol without having to leave your job or school for weeks or months. Outpatient treatment is not for everybody; you’ll need a lot of support from your loved ones and friends, as well as a strong sense of motivation toward your own recovery. If you have a physical dependency, you can enter a partial hospitalization program to get the medical treatment you’ll need and still do outpatient treatment; however, in most instances, inpatient treatment is recommended for those with physical dependencies and severe addictions.
