Highlight on Partial Hospitalization
The St. Alexius Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) was established in 1995 as one of the first off-site partial outpatient programs. PHP is a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary active treatment program for people with mental, emotional, behavioral and addictive disorders. The active treatment program offers an intensive, coordinated, structured and interdisciplinary approach not provided in an outpatient clinic setting. The treatment team consists of nurses, occupational therapists, social workers, psychiatrists, and addiction counselors. The goal of this program is for the participants to gain a better understanding of themselves and learn new skills and coping mechanisms thereby enabling them to reach their full potential.
The Partial Hospitalization Program provides interdisciplinary mental health care to patients diagnosed with a variety of disorders. Commonly treated conditions are depressive disorders, anxiety disorders and substance abuse/dependence.
