Understanding Partial Hospitalization

Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) provide the most intensive outpatient level of care available. Near Everett, WA, PHP providers offer comprehensive day treatment while you return home each evening.

What a PHP Day Looks Like

PHP programs typically include:

  • 20-30 hours of treatment weekly, over 5-6 days
  • Medical monitoring and medication management
  • Intensive group and individual therapy
  • Psychiatric evaluation and care for co-occurring conditions
  • Structured programming from morning through afternoon

PHP as a Step Between Levels

PHP fills the space between residential treatment and intensive outpatient. It's often used when someone needs more support than IOP provides but doesn't require 24-hour residential supervision, and it's a common step-down after completing inpatient or residential care.

Who PHP Tends to Fit

PHP tends to fit people with moderate to severe substance use symptoms who have stable housing, those with co-occurring mental health needs requiring integrated care, and anyone transitioning from a higher level of care who still needs substantial daily support.
