Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs), sometimes known as day treatment programs, are addiction recovery programs that deliver a high level of care but allow patients to return home each night after treatment. PHPs offer a similar treatment intensity and daily structure to that of inpatient/residential programs. These programs usually meet between 4-6 hours a day and at least 5 days a week.
People may either transfer or “step down” into a PHP program from an inpatient program or “step up” from a relatively less intensive, standard outpatient program. In other cases, people may enroll in a PHP as their initial entry into treatment.
A partial hospitalization program is a hospital-based form of outpatient drug rehabilitation. These programs offer services comparable to a residential inpatient program, including access to mental health care services, if needed; however, they do not require the person to stay at the program full-time.
The length of a program varies based on individual needs, but the typical amount of time someone will spend in a program is 14 to 21 days.
