This service provides a short-term, ambulatory, active treatment program to help Adult chemically dependent patients regain balance in body, mind and spirit through therapeutically intensive and structured clinical services. This treatment is for patients who are in acute distress or who have just completed an episode of acute inpatient care, may participate if they are able to function independently and participate actively in the program.

The Partial Hospitalization Program provides crisis stabilization through daily, intensive programming. Each patient referred is screened to determine the appropriateness of intensive outpatient care. Upon admission, patients and staff members together develop an individual treatment plan. Patients are treated with an interdisciplinary approach

When the patient has met treatment goals and no longer needs the partial intensive level of care, follow-up outpatient care will be arranged.

Professionals on the treatment team may include a chemical dependency counselor, physician, nurse, chaplain and client.
