are crucial steps toward recovery"

and aftercare services offered by the hospitals.

The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) helps prevent decompensation
and the need for rehospitalization. The program is designed for those
who require an intensive, structured, daily therapeutic environment,
but do not require 24-hour care. PHP is not only a cost effective
alternative to inpatient treatment, but also helps patients transition
from inpatient to outpatient care.
Individual treatment is designed to provide the opportunity to gain
insight, increased expression, problem solving and improved coping
skills.
