Understanding Levels of Care

The recovery process often requires different levels of care depending on an individual’s needs and circumstances. At Heartland Wellness Center, we offer three primary programs, each designed to provide the appropriate level of support:

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is the most intensive level of outpatient care available. It’s designed for individuals who require significant support but do not need round-the-clock supervision. Participants attend daily treatment sessions, typically for several hours a day, while returning home in the evenings. This allows them to maintain some independence while focusing intensely on their recovery.

Key Features of PHP:

  • Comprehensive therapy sessions, including individual, group, and family counseling.
  • Workshops focused on skill-building, stress management, and relapse prevention.
  • A structured schedule to create a sense of stability and routine.

PHP is an excellent option for individuals transitioning from inpatient treatment or those who need more support than traditional outpatient care can provide.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a flexible yet structured program that allows participants to maintain their daily responsibilities while receiving intensive support. This level of care is ideal for individuals balancing work, school, or family obligations who still require significant therapy and guidance.

Key Features of IOP:

  • Therapy sessions held multiple times a week, including individual and group counseling.
  • Education on coping strategies, relapse prevention, and addiction science.
  • Family involvement to strengthen relationships and support systems.

IOP bridges the gap between PHP and traditional outpatient therapy, providing a middle ground for those needing more than weekly counseling sessions but less than full-day care.

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient Rehab offers the most flexibility, making it an excellent choice for those with strong support systems at home or transitioning from higher levels of care. Participants attend weekly therapy sessions and educational workshops while living independently.

Key Features of Outpatient Rehab:

  • Scheduled individual therapy sessions to address personal challenges.
  • Group therapy to foster peer support and shared experiences.
  • Access to resources and local support networks for continued growth.

This level of care is designed to support long-term recovery while accommodating your lifestyle and commitments.
