Partial Hospitalization, sometimes called "PHP" or Day Treatment, is a type of drug treatment program which works to handle substance abuse problems and psychological problems which may possibly be co-occurring. In a PHP program, the treatment client in treatment partakes in various rehabilitation activities and approaches in the daytime and then returns home in the night time. This is done anywhere from five to seven days per week, all dependent on the severity of the drug problem. Partial Hospitalization can be most effective for addicted people in Amherst who are unable to cover the costs of long-term inpatient rehab, or for treatment clients who are not able to be apart from their households for extensive durations of time. While in Day Treatment, individuals participate in typical treatment services for addiction issues while simultaneously dealing with psychological issues which may deter them from remaining abstinent after treatment is complete.
