Regular Outpatient Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Alberta, VA.

Regular out-patient rehabilitation is mostly a less expensive alternative to more comprehensive outpatient options or inpatient treatment, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol rehab available in Alberta. Some people are attending treatment for the first time and have chosen regular outpatient because of the cost and time commitment and scheduling because of work, school or other obligations. In some cases, regular outpatient is a downgrade from rehab in a more intensive outpatient facility like a partial hospitalization or inpatient program.

Regular out-patient recovery options usually involve some kind of individual and group counseling services delivered once or twice a week. Programs that include 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 person remains involved in recovery can vary, and a person's improvement can be assessed every now and then and an extension of rehab can be suggested based on these evaluations.

In some cases, a regular outpatient rehab facility may be insufficient in intensity for someone who is dealing with a bad substance abuse issue and has not gone to recovery before or has relapsed after prior outpatient rehabilitation.
