PARTIAL HOSPITALIZATION PROGRAM (PHP)

A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides intensive, structured treatment for individuals with severe mental health or substance use disorders who do not require 24-hour inpatient care but need more support than typical outpatient services offer. PHP typically involves full-day treatment sessions several days a week, encompassing individual and group therapy, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and skill-building activities. The program aims to stabilize clients' conditions, promote recovery, and equip them with coping strategies while allowing them to return home each evening. PHP serves as a critical step in the continuum of care, offering a high level of support to help clients transition to less intensive treatment settings.
