Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) in New Jersey | Blue Star Recovery

PHP Treatment in New Jersey

Blue Star Recovery is an addiction treatment center in Hazlet, New Jersey. We offer outpatient treatment for those who may struggle with substance use disorders. This includes a dual diagnosis Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP).

PHP is the highest level of outpatient drug and alcohol treatment with full-day treatment. Our PHP treatment in New Jersey is a great fit for people who do not need 24-hour medical supervision or who’ve completed a medical detox.

What is PHP Addiction Treatment?

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) treatment is full-time outpatient care for drug or alcohol addiction. PHP treatment in New Jersey is similar to residential drug rehab in that you have a full day of treatment. People in partial hospitalization attend treatment and therapy 6 hours a day, 5 days a week.

One of the primary differences is that, at the end of the day, people in a New Jersey PHP return home to their own beds, or a sober living house. In a residential rehab, patients stay at the medical facility during most of their treatment. This means also sleeping overnight and having their meals at the facility.

Blue Star Recovery’s New Jersey PHP is a popular choice for people who need more intensive addiction treatment than IOP offers, but do not need 24-hour care. Our dual diagnosis treatment includes one-on-one individual therapy, group counseling and care for co-occurring disorders, like depression or anxiety.

Who Can Benefit From PHP Treatment?

Partial Hospitalization Programs are designed for people who require intensive treatment for alcohol or drug dependence, but don’t need 24-hour clinical supervision.

PHP treatment in New Jersey at Blue Star Recovery is for:

• Anyone seeking outpatient treatment for substance use disorder
• Those transitioning from higher levels of care, like detox or residential.
• People who have co-occurring mental health disorders,
• Individuals who require medication-assisted treatment

PHP is considered the most intensive form of outpatient care because it offers structure and a lot of support. If an individual is at a high risk of relapse due to their environment or social factors, PHP treatment can keep them on track for recovery.

What to Expect in a Partial Hospitalization Program

Individuals can expect to receive a variety of treatments while in a partial hospitalization program. On a day-to-day basis, you can expect group therapy, individual therapy, psychoeducation, skills training, and regular assessments of your progress and condition. If medication is recommended for your recovery, Blue Star Recovery offers medication-assisted treatment and can provide this to you within our PHP.

In a partial hospitalization program, treatments typically last for five hours a day and take place five days a week. Treatments and therapy available in PHP include:

How Long Does PHP Treatment for Addiction Last?

The length of a person’s stay in a partial hospitalization program is dependent on several factors. During your treatments, a clinician will assess you weekly to make adjustments to the treatment plan if necessary. After completing this program, patients often continue their addiction treatment in an intensive outpatient program or standard outpatient program.

Factors such as insurance coverage, history of substance use, and the physical and mental health of an individual can influence the length of time they are in a partial hospitalization program.

Most people who go through our addiction treatment program spend 30-90 days in treatment overall. However, we adapt our treatment plans to your needs. How much time you spend in the PHP portion of addiction care will depend on those needs and your progress.
