Partial Hospitalization Chemical Dependency Program


Parkwood's Partial Hospitalization Program for the chemically dependent person is designed for the person who needs more structure than occasional counseling or a typical outpatient program but less structure than residential. This could be a person who is stepping down from being detoxed. It could be a person who has tried just going to some counseling or has tried handling the problem on their own, but their solution isn't working.

It could also be the person that has been working with a counselor, therapist or health care provider and one of these professionals thinks the person needs more structure. They then provide a referral to the Parkwood Chemical Dependency Partial Program.

The hours of the Chemical Dependency Program are from 8:00AM-9:00PM Monday through Friday and from 1:00PM - 9:00PM on Saturday and Sunday. This schedule can also flex to let someone be able to come into the program at 8:00AM and leave by 2:30PM on Monday through Friday if they are going to a job.

Treatment includes group therapy, family therapy, individual therapy, and linkage to the AA or NA 12 step support groups.

The program has campus apartments if the patient needs somewhere to live while attending treatment due to distance issues from Parkwood. Anyone who lives in the campus apartment will also have food, transportation to and from treatment, and AA or NA, and utilities provided.

Program Mission and Philosophy

The mission of The Chemical Partial Program at Parkwood is to provide an excellent treatment that is evidence based, individualized, based on the 12-step recovery process, and the philosophy that addiction is a disease. The Chemical Dependency Partial Program will help assist each patient in constructing a life that is physically, emotionally, spiritually, and vocationally healthy. This is addressed directly and through the referral process.

Program Description

In The Chemical Dependency Partial Program each patient is evaluated and has an initial assessment. Then an individualized treatment plan is developed which identifies the patient's areas of needs, goals, strengths and problems to be addressed.

Each patient will receive professional care from a psychiatrist who will staff their case and see the patient when the psychiatrist makes rounds at the hospital. Each patient will also have an individual licensed therapist that is responsible for his or her therapy.

The Needs Assessment and Referral Center is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to respond promptly to calls or walk-in inquiries. For more information call 1-800-477-3422.
