Available levels of care include a Partial Hospitalization Program, Intensive Outpatient Program, an evening IOP schedule, and outpatient therapy.

Services available through outpatient care

Care may include individual therapy, medication management, drug testing and monitoring, case management, family support, and medical oversight. River City Recovery also provides clinical and medical assessments. The exact combination of services depends on the person’s needs and the outpatient program being considered.

Services reflect your assessed needs and outpatient program
Referrals may connect you with care outside program scope

Care coordination and referrals can help connect different parts of a treatment plan. This may be useful when a person has substance use concerns, mental health needs, or practical barriers that affect participation. Case management can address relevant needs within the scope of the program, while family support can help appropriate loved ones understand the care process.

Someone who needs one of those services should seek an appropriate provider or emergency resource. Admissions can explain the outpatient scope and discuss referrals when a requested service is outside that scope.

Comparing PHP, IOP, and outpatient therapy

PHP is the most structured outpatient level offered by River City Recovery. It may be considered when an adult needs substantial daytime treatment while remaining outside a residential setting. Participation still requires reliable travel to the Columbus facility and the ability to engage safely in outpatient care.

Each outpatient level has a different structure
Evening IOP times should be reconfirmed before travel

IOP provides structured treatment with a different time commitment from PHP. River City Recovery also offers an evening IOP on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6:15 PM to 9:15 PM. Because schedules can change, prospective participants should reconfirm the current days and hours directly before making travel or work arrangements.

Outpatient therapy generally offers a less intensive structure than PHP or IOP. It may be considered as an ongoing level of support or when a higher level of structure is not indicated. An assessment and admissions conversation provide more useful guidance than trying to select a level from a website alone.
