Compassion Behavioral Health offers a wide range of treatment programs to help those who are dealing with substance abuse and mental health problems. Our partial hospitalization program, or PHP, is one of them. This type of outpatient treatment caters to clients who need a higher level of care than standard outpatient treatment can provide, though not as rigorous as an inpatient/residential program.
Compassion Behavioral Health offers numerous levels of care for both mental health and substance use disorders. A PHP is the next level of care following residential treatment and preceding intensive outpatient treatment. If you are partaking in our inpatient program, we will recommend PHP next.
All treatment programs at Compassion Behavioral Health are tailored to your individual needs. A PHP is flexible and accommodating, providing treatment most days of the week, up to 6 hours a day. Once you have completed your sessions for the day, you can return home or to your sober living environment.
People are sometimes surprised to learn that they need more care after an inpatient program. However, we are finding that the more treatment people in recovery receive, the easier time they have maintaining their sobriety.
Fortunately, you don’t have to stay at a residential facility the entire time. You can start transitioning into your everyday life and taking on more responsibility while receiving medical support and therapeutic services.
A partial hospitalization program can also work for people who need immediate treatment for an addiction or mental health problem but have familial commitments. If you cannot commit to inpatient rehab, a PHP is worth considering. This program is very structured, and if you aren’t seeing the improvements that we expect, you may be asked to seek inpatient care until your condition improves.
As long as you are making strides in your recovery and maintaining your sobriety, you can eventually step down from a PHP and into a lower level of care, such an intensive outpatient program or a standard outpatient program. This may sound like a big commitment, but it also means that you will have ongoing support.
Even though a PHP has many benefits to offer, we do believe that some people do better in this program than others. When you contact our admissions department, our team can help determine if you or a loved one is the right fit for this level of care.
In general, we recommend a PHP for recovering addictions who:
The PHP program at Compassion Behavioral Health provides access to all of our therapeutic services. The majority of your time will be spent in individual and group therapy as you learn more about your addiction, the motivations that led you to start abusing substances and how to deal with stressful situations.
