Following treatment, participants typically transition back to their established outpatient mental health providers and any additional resources they identified during their stay. This schedule often allows participants to continue with work or school schedules. Participants attend the program on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for three hours a day (9:00 a.m.–noon or 1:00–4:00 p.m.) for an average of 4–6 weeks*. Given the limited schedule, participants in IOP are better able to structure their time outside of the program and keep themselves safe. In addition to skills groups, participants receive less frequent medication management, brief individual therapy, and case management. Treatment emphasizes mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), as well as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). Participants learn skills to enhance day-to-day coping and better manage symptoms.
Like PHP, IOP provides comprehensive evaluation, treatment, and some post-treatment planning. The program is appropriate for people with moderate psychiatric symptoms. People may also be referred directly to IOP when symptom acuity does not meet the criteria for PHP. The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) may be an option as a step down from PHP. Participants attend the program for approximately 15 days* and must be completed consecutively. In addition to skills groups, participants receive medication management, brief individual therapy, and case management. Treatment emphasizes mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), as well as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). The program provides comprehensive evaluation, treatment, and post-treatment planning. Participants enroll in PHP when they need a higher level of care to help manage their symptoms, sometimes as an alternative to – or transition from – a psychiatric hospitalization, and when safety and structure are a concern. The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a voluntary outpatient mental health service for adults with a variety of severe psychiatric symptoms. PHP or IOP services are offered based on medical necessity admission criteria. You must be fully vaccinated including a booster (if eligible) in order to attend our programs. Upon completion of PHP, patients are typically referred to traditional outpatient therapy and medication management.All services are offered in-person at 401 Parnassus Ave., San Francisco, CA 94143. Bournewood accepts Medicare, MassHealth (Medicaid), and most other private insurance and managed care plans. Adolescent PHPs accept patients aged 12-18 years old, and Adult PHPs accept patients aged 18+. Lengths of stay are individualized to patients’ specific needs but average about 10 days. Our programs are open Monday through Friday and run from about 9am-3pm. Each program is comprised of a multidisciplinary treatment team of psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, social workers, mental health counselors, and rehabilitation specialists. Our PHPs are used as a step-down transition from inpatient level of care and can provide intensive treatment as an alternative to a psychiatric hospitalization. Bournewood Health Systems is a behavioral health organization offering a continuum of psychiatric and dual diagnosis care for adults and adolescents, including in-person and virtual Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs) in Brookline, Dedham, Lowell, and Woburn.
