Partial hospitalization/Day Treatment is a kind of outpatient alcohol and drug treatment program which is less than intensive out-patient and more intensive than normal outpatient rehab. Partial Hospitalization Day Treatment is also tailored to people who may need intense rehabilitation for a co-occurring mental health disorder, but don't need around the clock intervention and treatment. For someone who has completed inpatient rehab, a partial hospitalization day treatment program in Ubly could help them make the transition more easily into a drug-free lifestyle as a "step-down" option. Following partial hospitalization day treatment, the person could then transition over to regular out-patient care.
When a client is in a partial hospitalization day treatment program, they typically participate in services anywhere from 3-5 days a week. It is very much like an in-patient treatment program in many important ways, including the fact that individuals will have access tonurses, physicians, and mental health professionals who can address the psychological, emotional, and physical issues they are trying to conquer.
