Description of Services:
The program has two components:

Partial Hospitalization Program
  • a physician-referred, voluntary, short-term, outpatient acute-care program that can follow inpatient care or be used as a diversion from inpatient hospitalization
  • provides day treatment, where patients are coached by an inter-professional team to effectively manage their symptoms while maintaining important ties to the community
  • utilizes recovery principles by empowering patients, instilling hope and improving skills to create a meaningful life
Intensive Outpatient Program
  • a three hour, “half-day” behavioural treatment program which runs for a maximum of 12 weeks
  • emphasizes finding solutions, enhancement and use of coping skills, increasing supports, and striving for a healthy balance in the areas of self-care, productivity and leisure
  • a skills-based program, emphasizing the use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavior Therapy
  • participants have the opportunity to utilize the therapeutic groups to better understand problematic patterns as they maintain or reintegrate back into valued life roles
