Although many individuals can benefit from partial hospitalization treatment at Principles Recovery Center, there are certain situations or circumstances that are particularly conducive to this form of treatment.

One of the most common scenarios for partial hospitalization treatment is the need for flexibility in scheduling. Despite the fact that inpatient care is the most intensive form of addiction treatment, not everyone is able to complete an inpatient program. With inpatient treatment, a patient must reside on-site at the treatment facility, which means it’s necessary to take an extended leave of absence from his or her life. This can be extremely difficult for individuals who have jobs or careers, familial obligations, or other responsibilities that prohibit inpatient care. Rather than having to remain in active addiction, partial hospitalization treatment gives these individuals the opportunity to receive a high level of treatment and care while continuing to fulfill their obligations and responsibilities at home and/or at work.

Alternatively, it’s common for individuals to utilize partial hospitalization treatment as a follow-up to completing inpatient treatment. In fact, this is how to renowned continuum of care works. In short, the continuum of care is a trajectory for recovery in which a patient begins with detoxification before proceeding to inpatient treatment, which is followed by a form of outpatient care such as partial hospitalization treatment. When this kind of treatment plan is followed, individuals typically have greater chances of remaining sober long-term because the subsequent forms of treatment reinforce the skills and strategies that patients acquire in the preceding program. So when a partial hospitalization program follows inpatient care, the partial hospitalization program essentially reinforces what the patient learned while in the inpatient program.

Partial hospitalization is also great for recovery first-timers. If you or someone you love has only been suffering from addiction for a relatively brief amount of time, and if the addiction is particularly severe or to a substance like alcohol or benzodiazepines, partial hospitalization can be quite effective when utilized on its own. Since it’s much more intensive and affords more time in treatment than most other types of outpatient care, individuals receiving partial hospitalization treatment are better able to absorb the skills that are often crucial to sustaining one’s sobriety indefinitely. Compared to an outpatient program, partial hospitalization treatment affords much more time for patients to not only learn sobriety but to prepare themselves for when they return to their homes and must assume full responsibility for maintaining that sobriety into the future.
