Question

How do residential and outpatient rehab programs compare?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Sometimes, residential rehabilitation programs allow individuals to leave for activities or even to run errands or attend appointments, especially once the person has gone through several weeks of treatment.Outpatient rehab does not require you to stay at the center 24 hours a day. The time you spend in drug treatment depends on what type of program it is and the plan you created with your treatment providers. You might attend for 5 to 6 hours every day, a few hours each evening or several hours total each week, for example. One benefit of these programs is that you can return home each evening and may be able to more effectively balance treatment with other obligations, such as work, school or family needs.
