PHP is one level within River City Recovery’s adult outpatient continuum. Other available levels include Intensive Outpatient Program, Evening IOP, and outpatient therapy. The right starting point cannot be determined from a web page alone. Clinical and medical assessments can help identify current concerns and the amount of structure that may be suitable.

Assessments help clarify the appropriate outpatient starting point
Possible withdrawal needs call for appropriate medical evaluation before outpatient planning. River City Recovery provides detox referrals when needed. Overnight treatment is a different setting from the published outpatient programs.

Admissions can explain differences among the programs without promising placement. People who may need a different setting should seek an appropriate evaluation. Care coordination and referrals may support the transition to other resources.

Services available within outpatient care

Depending on individual needs and the applicable program, services may include individual therapy, medication management, drug testing and monitoring, case management, family support, medical oversight, and care coordination. Assessments provide information that can guide planning. Treatment can address substance use and mental health concerns in an adult outpatient environment.
