Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

What is a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)?

Partial hospitalization (PHP) is a highly structured form of outpatient treatment. This level of care typically involves programming five days per week and is best suited for individuals who have completed detoxification and residential treatment but are not yet ready to be on their own or attend a less structured level of care, such as an intensive outpatient program (IOP).

5 days / week

Clients attending our PHP program may commute from home or participate in supportive sober living. For clients attending our Pennsylvania program, Peace Valley Recovery works with Candor House, a structured sober living provider in central Bucks County. Please request additional information here if you are interested in sober living options.

Sober living can provide a structured, substance-free environment that supports accountability, community, and the transition from PHP to more independent living. Our admissions team can help you understand how sober living may complement your recovery plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

The FAQs below will help you understand some of the factors that are important when considering PHP, but remember that you don’t have to make this plan alone. Our compassionate admissions team will listen and help you understand your options and which treatment program is most appropriate.

Partial hospitalization works as the next step in recovery after detox and residential treatment. Or, as the first step in recovery for individuals who don’t require detox or residential treatment for any reason.

In cases where someone has completed detox and residential treatment, a partial program allow them to slowly begin integrating back into family or social life without giving up the structured support that might be necessary at this stage. Clients attending PHP are required to participate in 6 hours of programming per day and return home at night, which offers them the chance to reintegrate into family units and begin to work on living their new, sober lifestyle.

In some cases, PHP may be the first step in recovery. It is highly structured and allows you attend treatment daily without being away from your family or home for an extended period, which may be helpful for some individuals. If the stress of being away from home — or the need to restructure an entire family to do so — would put your recovery at risk, PHP could be an appropriate option.

While partial hospitalization is highly structured and includes a full programming schedule, residential treatment offers a few things that aren’t possible in outpatient levels of care. First, residential treatment lets you take a break, which can be important if your environment plays a role in your addiction. Second, depending on your situation, you may require 24 hour medical and clinical supervision. At Peace Valley, our admissions process involves a thorough screening to determine whether or not you are appropriate for our facility. In cases where a potential client requires a higher level of care prior to admitting, we will provide a list of qualified providers as options and help coordinate this referral.
While attending our partial program, you will take part in structured programming 5 days per week, 6 hours each day. This programming will include individual, group, and holistic therapies such as yoga and music. We will work with you to understand your addiction and help you develop coping mechanisms. If you are experiencing mental health issues related to your drug or alcohol addiction, such as anxiety or depression, those will be addressed by your primary therapist. When appropriate, family therapy is encouraged, and as you approach completion, we will work with you to create an aftercare plan that supports continued sobriety.
