A partial hospitalization program (PHP), also known as Partial Care, is the highest level of outpatient care available at Excel’s NJ treatment center.
During PHP treatment, clients continue to live at home and attend our care facility for substance use and mental health treatment during the day.
PHP Treatment Schedules
Partial Care (PHP) is full-time outpatient treatment. Most clients attend PHP treatment for about six hours a day, five days a week.
Where to Begin with PHP
We understand that seeking treatment for substance use and mental health disorders can be overwhelming for both the person needing help and their loved ones.
This is why enrolling in our PHP program is fast and easy by design. You don’t need to be certain of what level of care or type of treatment you or your loved one needs.
All you need to do is contact us through our Admissions Page or give us a call anytime 24/7. We’ll walk you through one step at a time with kindness and compassion.
Who is a good fit for a Partial Care (PHP) Program?
At the Excel Treatment Center PHP, licensed clinicians lead group and individual therapy, skill-building, and regular progress check-ins throughout the day. At the close of each day, clients return home. Regular check-ins let your care team see how you’re doing and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
Along with therapy, your day may also include:
We personalize each treatment plan to fit your needs and goals. Many plans combine proven approaches, like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), with holistic options such as meditation and yoga therapy, giving you more than one path toward recovery.
PHP also works well for young adults 18 and older, including college students. Schooling support helps them stay on track with coursework, and age-appropriate outings keep them engaged in their recovery.
PHP gives you the structure of a full treatment day without an overnight stay. You’ll sleep in your own bed every night, then return the next day ready to keep building on your progress.
We provide continuing care for people who are already on Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) with medicines like buprenorphine.

The Partial Care/PHP level of care is designed to provide a bridge from inpatient levels of care like detox or residential to IOP and outpatient. Partial care provides a full day of treatment, similar to a residential rehab, but without the need to sleep overnight in a clinical facility.
Program lengths typically range from several weeks to several months, depending on a client’s progress. Stays can be as short as a single week or as long as six months, but the goal of partial hospitalization programs is to make significant progress. Only when that progress is achieved will other suitable treatment options appear.
The components of a partial hospitalization program typically include individual therapy, group counseling and process groups, psychiatric medication management, family education sessions, and specialty treatment services. Clients can also access social activities designed to foster better mental health.

Clients recovering from mental health disorders and requiring a higher level of care than what inpatient or outpatient facilities can provide find significant benefits in participating in partial hospitalization programs. These programs offer a structured and supportive environment where individuals receive intensive therapy, medication management, and other essential services to aid their recovery journey. It is important to note that individuals who are at risk for self-harm or suicide may not be suitable for partial hospitalization programs, as these programs do not provide the necessary live-in facilities and constant supervision required for their safety.
When recovering from a substance use disorder, the process of transitioning back into everyday life after inpatient treatment can be incredibly challenging. It requires individuals to navigate various obstacles and maintain their sobriety while reintegrating into society. Partial hospitalization programs provide a crucial level of care specifically designed for clients who can maintain autonomy and responsibility in their personal lives. These programs offer ongoing therapeutic treatment, ensuring that individuals receive the necessary support, accountability, and structure to continue their recovery journey successfully. By participating in these programs, individuals can access comprehensive services and resources tailored to their specific needs, empowering them to achieve long-term sobriety and a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Dual diagnosis refers to the simultaneous presence of a mental health issue and drug addiction, creating complex challenges for individuals. Those grappling with co-occurring disorders can significantly benefit from this personalized care tailored to their specific needs. Partial hospitalization offers regular and comprehensive treatment, providing support for a wide range of disorders. This approach focuses on targeting each disorder individually or addressing them in conjunction with others, ensuring holistic and effective care.
