Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), also known as an Aftercare Program, is a short-term intensive treatment program usually consisting of five (5) days a week. A PHP can be an effective alternative for those who cannot commit to living in a rehab facility 24/7 but require daily medical supervision. A PHP provides comprehensive addiction services seven (7) days a week and is usually attended by the addict every day.
This allows addicts to continue working, stay close to their family and friends, and minimize disruptions to their daily routines. Upon entering a PHP, patients are assessed by Addiction Psychiatrists, Medical Doctors (MD), Nurses, Psychologists, and Therapists. This assessment will determine the appropriate level of care.
Although PHP’s are similar to residential programs, they lack 24-hour supervision. This is because aftercare patients are still expected to follow the rules of their recovery and meet specific goals. This will allow them to assimilate back into society without relapse.
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient’s individual requirements.
Aftercare support is a service many addicts need to ensure their success at recovery. This service usually includes one-on-one or group therapies, assistance from a sponsor and other types of help designed to make sure the patient continues living a life free from drugs.
Patients also may require medication to help them battle addiction. Some people have been able to successfully recover without additional medications, but others have found that they need help during their transition. Long-term, the patient must take the initiative to attend meetings and receive help from other addicts in recovery.
