Regular outpatient recovery is mostly a less costly choice to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol treatment available in Sharpes. Some people are in treatment for the first time and have chosen regular outpatient because of the cost and time commitment and scheduling because of school, work or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a "step-down" from treatment in a more intensive outpatient center such as a partial hospitalization or in-patient program.
Regular out-patient treatment services usually offer group and individual counseling services delivered once or twice a week. Programs which offer a wider range of services may include counseling (behavioral therapy) to assist with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring addiction and mental health issues. How long a client remains in recovery can change from client to client, and a client's progress can be assessed from time to time and an extension of rehab can be suggested based on these evaluations.
In many cases, a regular outpatient rehabilitation facility is going to be lacking in intensity for an individual who is dealing with a chronic alcohol and drug problem and has not experienced recovery previously or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient recovery.
