A partial hospitalization program, or PHP, is an outpatient level of care that matches the intensity and duration of residential treatment while allowing clients to reside in their home or a sober living program. PHP treatment typically involves daily group counseling and psycho-education combined with weekly individual sessions with a licensed therapist.

What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

A partial hospitalization program, or a PHP, is a level of care that falls right below residential treatment. In most cases, people who have completed residential treatment or detox step-down into a partial hospitalization program to continue their recovery process. Those attending a partial hospitalization program tend to live at their own home or a sober house. They do, however, go to the facility daily and spend the majority of the day there. During that time, clients of the program will participate in therapy sessions such as individual therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and group counseling.

Who is a Candidate for a Partial Hospitalization Program?

Longleaf Recovery & Wellness will always tailor treatment services to a client’s individual needs. Prior to enrolling in a partial hospitalization program, our admissions staff will work with you to determine if this level of treatment is appropriate for your current needs. Those who can benefit most from a partial hospitalization program include individuals who:

  • Are engaging in treatment for the first time
  • Have already completed a residential treatment program and are stepping down to a less structured level of care
  • Have completed a medical detox and do not require the structure of a residential program
  • Have experienced difficulties maintaining their recovery
  • Require continued, supervised medication management

Benefits of Partial Hospitalization Program

Below are just a few of the benefits of the partial hospitalization program at Longleaf Recovery & Wellness. Of course, the most important benefit is experiencing life without alcohol and drugs. Attending a partial hospitalization program can be significantly beneficial in several different ways:

AFFORDIBILITY

Because clients typically reside at home, PHP eliminates the additional costs of residential programs. Clients are still able to access all aspects of higher-level treatment services while engaging in a more affordable outpatient setting.

Bridging the gap

For individuals completing care in a detox or residential program, continuing their recovery after returning home is often difficult. Receiving services at the PHP level of care can provide important structure and support while transitioning back to challenges of everyday life.

Family Involvement

Addiction often has a tremendous impact on the families and loved-ones. At Longleaf, we strongly support the involvement of family members throughout the treatment process. This includes family therapy sessions as a routine part of treatment and a weekly family support group facilitated by program staff.
