a woman speaks to a man about a partial hospitalization programPartial hospitalization programs (PHPs), also called day programs, provide intensive treatment for behavioral health issues without requiring an overnight stay. They offer more time in treatment than a standard outpatient program. PHPs have been found to be effective in treating substance use disorders and mental health disorders. Some inpatient drug and alcohol rehab centers offer partial hospitalization programs as part of a spectrum of treatment types. Other PHPs are provided through hospitals that may have an inpatient or outpatient program for addiction treatment as well. An individual in a partial hospitalization program is medically monitored during their time in treatment and participates in a variety of evidence-based therapies. PHPs aim to provide comprehensive care for substance use disorders while still allowing a person the freedom to live their life outside of treatment.

At Vertava Health, our partial hospitalization program can be the key for you or someone you care about to overcome a substance use disorder. Reach out to our team today for more information about our PHP at 844.470.0410 or fill out our online contact form.

Partial Hospitalization Addiction Treatment Methods

Many partial hospitalization programs are run by medical staff or certified addiction counselors. These programs use a variety of therapies for addiction treatment. Addiction is a multifaceted mental disorder that is not healed by one method alone.

Some treatment methods commonly used in partial hospitalization programs include:

  • Behavioral therapy – Behavior therapy is one of the core treatment methods for addiction. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) works with individuals to determine negative thought patterns that lead to unhealthy behavior, like abusing drugs or alcohol.
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), a form of CBT, helps people regulate their emotions and learn positive coping skills.
  • Individual counseling – Working closely with a therapist gives someone the chance to delve deeply into issues surrounding substance use. It also allows the individual to set goals and discuss progress with a professional who knows them personally.
  • Group therapy – This form of therapy gives individuals the opportunity to relate to others who are struggling with similar issues. Groups are run by at least one therapist and offer the chance for people to offer insight to each other and develop positive relationships while working toward common therapeutic goals.
  • Support groups – These sessions are less formal gatherings of people suffering from addiction. They provide a safe environment for discussing personal issues related to substance use and how addiction affects people’s lives. These groups may continue after treatment has ended, supporting an individual’s recovery as long as they need.
  • Art therapy – Art therapy encourages individuals to express emotions in different ways. Some people do not feel comfortable talking about their feelings or have difficulty putting them into words. Art can be a therapeutic method for releasing deep emotions and providing insight into their primary therapist.

Individuals with substance use disorders often suffer from a second mental health disorder, like depression or anxiety, that contributes to substance use. Co-occurring disorder treatment works to heal both disorders together so a person can recover completely.

Benefits of a Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program can be beneficial in many ways, such as:

  • Cost-effective – Often, a PHP is less expensive than other forms of addiction treatment.
  • Flexibility – Since partial hospitalization allows people to live at home, it is more flexible than inpatient treatment.
  • Transitional care – Day programs may be especially effective as a step down from a thirty-day program.
  • Professional supervision – Some people may be advised by a medical professional to advance to a partial hospitalization program that monitors them more closely.
