Intensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Program

IOP is more intensive than traditional outpatient and is designed to achieve short-term stabilization and resolution of immediate problem areas. The patient and family are offered services by a team of professionals. The patient is enrolled in a time-limited program with other patients working on similar issues. The treatment team may include licensed therapists, nurses, program specialists and a doctor.

Montevista Hospital offers an intensive outpatient rehabilitation program for adults. It's a four-hour on-campus program that is recommended as a step down from partial hospitalization or as a direct admission.

Advantages of IOP:

• Individual lives at home
• Sessions may be conducted while the individual continues to go to work or school.
• Individual therapy is augmented by group therapies specific to the patient's needs.
• Multiple professional disciplines work with the patient and family.
• Frequency of attendance is determined by the individual's specific needs.
• Specialty programs available
