If someone is struggling with substance misuse or abuse issues, they may decide to seek help from an addiction treatment center. For many, partial hospitalization programs (PHP) can be the first step toward hope. Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) in Orange County gives a highly structured treatment protocol designed for each client’s success. Our program provides the focused treatment needed while also letting people live in their own homes or a sober living environment.

What is a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)?

Inpatient programs require a person to move into a facility and receive round-the-clock care. Outpatient programs allow a person to receive treatment during the day and still return to their homes at night. Some people choose to live in a sober living home while attending PHP.

Partial hospitalization programs require the most time spent in treatment compared to other types of outpatient programs. Participants typically go five or more days a week for several hours a day. Our Ocean Hills Recovery partial hospitalization program in Orange County provides highly structured day treatment programs. We offer services like group therapy, individual counseling, and other proven types of addiction treatment. Individuals who need concentrated, time-intensive treatment but still have a supportive, non-triggering home environment in which to live often do well in a PHP program.

What Makes PHP for Substance Abuse Right for You?

Partial hospitalization programs are often a step down after someone has completed detox or residential treatment. Also, if someone needs a high level of support to help them battle their addiction, but doesn’t necessarily need 24-hour monitoring and supervision. PHPs provide an excellent treatment option for those who have strong and reliable support systems in their families or their homes. It’s also beneficial if they have stable housing and transportation.

If a person has completed a residential program but still needs elevated supervision and guidance, PHPs provide this. Too often, people leave a residential program and return home, only to find themselves struggling and in danger of relapsing. PHPs make sense for them as the next step in their treatment because it allows them more independence than residential programs, while still being accountable for working on their recovery under close guidance. PHP treatment often takes place in a medical facility. This allows the person quick access to any needed medications or medical interventions.

A PHP also makes financial sense for those who qualify for this type of treatment. Many residential programs cost more than outpatient programs. Generally speaking, many insurance plans like Aetna cover all or a large part of stays in PHP programs. Also, the cost that must be covered by the client is sizably less than that of a residential program.

Services Offered in Our Partial Hospitalization Program in Orange County

Our adult and adolescent partial hospitalization program services recognize that everyone has individual treatment needs. We customize a treatment plan with the help of several different experienced professionals—counselors, therapists, doctors, nurses, and more. Treatment will include regular individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention training, life skills, and even targeted counseling for gender-specific groups.

Our experienced and compassionate counselors will customize a program in which each client receives no fewer than six hours of treatment per day for at least five days a week. Also, a PHP keeps clients at our facility for much of the week while providing the flexibility to maintain their day-to-day lives. This interaction outside of our facility allows them to road-test what they’ve learned in recovery and process any stressors and situations they encounter with our help.

We know that the path back to sobriety should be holistic in nature, focusing on the body, mind, and spirit. We offer access to our premier fitness center, yoga classes, massage therapy, art and music therapy, and more. Ocean Hills Recovery’s doctors and psychiatrists also help with medication management if needed. Our clinical staff is available to treat complications that arise from substance abuse.

Additionally, we work with clients to be sure they have the proper tools for aftercare. Aftercare will allow them to live a healthy life that’s full of positive and reinforcing self-care options. Studies show that the longer a person remains in recovery programs, the more successful they are at staying sober long-term.

Partial Hospitalization Programs and Mental Health

Too often, someone who struggles with addiction also battles mental health problems. Approximately half of all people who have a substance use disorder also have at least one diagnosable mental health disorder. PHPs address both issues, by providing treatment for two challenging disorders at the same time.

If someone deals with a mental health disorder like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder, our partial hospitalization program in Orange County knows how to help. Because substance use and mental health disorders feed off each other, it makes it imperative to seek treatment for them simultaneously.

The symptoms of mental health disorders can cause a person to begin abusing alcohol or drugs in order to assuage them. In addition, sometimes the effects of substance abuse cause or exacerbate mental health symptoms. Therefore, our PHP clinicians know how to address both addiction and mental health. This sets our clients up for success in dealing with both once they leave our program.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does drug and alcohol rehab last?

The length of your stay at drug and alcohol rehab will vary for each person attending rehab and from treatment center to treatment center. Most inpatient programs are at least 30 days long; however, some programs may incorporate a shorter inpatient stay with a more extended outpatient stay. The best rehab centers will provide a more custom treatment plan for each person that takes into account the individual’s needs before determining the length of treatment. Ocean Hills Recovery offers a variety of options for addiction treatment. A typical stay at our inpatient drug and alcohol rehab programs last between 30 to 45 days.

Do I need inpatient or outpatient treatment?

Outpatient is an excellent option for people who are unable to take time away from work or their families while receiving addiction treatment. Inpatient treatment is an excellent option for people who can be away from their work or families for at least several weeks for treatment. We recommend that you contact a reliable treatment center, like Ocean Hills Recovery, for a complete assessment before you decide whether inpatient or outpatient treatment for addiction is best for you.

Should I get addiction treatment locally or away?

The answer to whether you should go away or stay local for addiction treatment is very individual. Many people need to get away from their everyday life for them to fully submerge themselves in their addiction recovery process. For these individuals, going to an out of state treatment center is the best option to be able to commit fully and concentrate on their recovery. For others, this is not an option because of work or family obligations.

What do I do if I don’t have insurance for drug rehab?

There are options for drug rehab, even if you don’t have insurance. When you decide to get help, the best thing to do is to find a treatment philosophy that you believe may help and contact them for assistance. Rehab professionals can help you determine if you have insurance coverage for addiction treatment, and what options are best for you. Many drug rehabs accept insurance but also have private pay, or financing options available. Contact our rehab admissions specialist today, and we can help you navigate insurance questions, payment options, and treatment plans.

How to find a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center?

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration website is a great place to start when you are looking for a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center. We recommend that you make a list of a few different centers to contact and speak with them to get a feel for their programs, therapies, and staff and find the center that you feel most comfortable with. Have a list of questions that you can ask each center to help you through the process. One of the most important questions to ask is if the rehab holds accreditation by CARF. Having a state license is no longer enough to ensure that a rehab center is reputable. If the rehab holds CARF accreditation, they have had to meet a more strict set of guidelines and procedures.

Do I need detox before addiction treatment?

Many people require detox to help manage withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs. There are several factors that we take into consideration to determine if you will need detox before addiction treatment. Our admissions professionals work with each person to obtain a thorough history of substance use and other medical conditions to help make the appropriate recommendations for care. You must give accurate information so that we can keep you as comfortable as possible if you are experiencing withdrawal symptoms. However, detox is only the first step in addiction recovery. For long-lasting addiction recovery, a person must deal with the underlying issues that lead to substance use in the first place. Contact us today for a confidential assessment.
