Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient Care for Adults

Centennial Peaks Hospital offers two intensive outpatient programs (IOP) for adults that need mental health and substance abuse treatment but do not require 24-hour care. Many patients seeking outpatient care may not meet criteria for inpatient hospitalization, but have mental health issues that make it difficult to work, relax, and participate in healthy relationships with family and friends. Our outpatient programs allow the patients to work and live at home while learning life skills that can empower them to take control of their lives. We determine the needs of each patient through a complimentary, confidential assessment, but typical treatment plans consist of up to 20 sessions. Most patients will attend group therapy nine hours each week. Both day and evening tracks are available for patients that need the flexibility.
