Partial Hospitalization Program
The Partial Hospitalization Program provides a structured and intensive level of care designed to help individuals transition from inpatient treatment to a more independent lifestyle. It is in this level of addiction treatment that patients begin to re-integrate back into everyday life after rehab, with the opportunity to go off-site for recovery meetings, religious services, and recreational outings. At our Lake Worth drug rehab in Florida, we offer PHP addiction treatment as a seamless step-down for patients who have completed medically assisted detox and residential treatment or as a direct admission for patients who meet medical and clinical criteria.
What is a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)?
A partial hospitalization program is a step-down addiction continuum of care that enables patients to continue receiving full-time therapeutic services while simultaneously developing independent living skills. Patients continue to meet with a psychiatrist/MD regularly for medication evaluation and management, they have individual therapy sessions with their primary clinician weekly, and they attend group therapy daily.
Partial hospitalization rehabs cater to people struggling with addiction who have already undergone medical detox or are deemed medically stable in their initial clinical assessment. Unlike our residential treatment program, patients in our partial hospitalization program receive medical monitoring and counseling during the day but don’t stay overnight.
For this reason, PHP is sometimes referred to as a day treatment program that offers outpatient addiction services like drug counseling, individual and group therapy, access to medical care, and medication (as needed). Individuals who require immediate medical attention work closely with hospital centers to ensure patients receive the care they need.
Benefits of the Partial Hospitalization Program
One of the key advantages is flexibility. Patients receive the intensive care they need while still being able to maintain some aspects of their daily lives, such as work or family responsibilities.
There are also therapies and services available, including individual counseling, group therapy, family therapy, and holistic treatments like yoga and meditation. These services address the multifaceted nature of addiction, helping patients develop the skills and strategies they need for long-term recovery.
Another significant benefit of PHP is its focus on relapse prevention. The structured environment and continuous support help individuals focus on their recovery goals. By spending substantial time in treatment each day, patients can address triggers and challenges in real-time, reducing the risk of relapse and promoting sustained sobriety.
Our PHP Services & Structure
Partial hospitalization addiction treatment runs for 3 to 5 days a week for about 4 to 6 hours a day, allowing patients to go home at the end of their sessions. PHP is a more intensive program than other outpatient programs, which may only meet a few times a week.
Individuals entering partial hospitalization may be using it as a step down from inpatient care, which is why PHP is best suited for individuals who do not require 24-hour supervision or medical support. Patients in our partial hospitalization program for addiction work closely with different treatment professionals, including doctors, nurses, social workers, therapists, and psychiatrists, to address various needs.
Typical services offered in our PHP addiction treatment include:
- Aftercare planning
- Family therapy
- Group counseling
- Holistic treatment
- Individual counseling
- Medical services
- Medication management
- Psychoeducational groups
- Relapse prevention planning
- Team building exercises
- Vocational workshops & more
During this phase of the addiction treatment process, patients begin to go off-site for activities like 12-step recovery meetings and recreational outings. This aids in the community reintegration process and helps patients realize that having fun in sobriety is possible. We consider this a crucial part of maintaining success post-discharge.
