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.
