Adult Partial Hospitalization Program in Michigan

What Is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

A PHP is a structured daytime program that offers therapy and mental health support without an overnight hospital stay. It’s often a helpful option if you’re transitioning out of inpatient care or if your symptoms need more attention than weekly therapy alone.

What to Expect in the Partial Hospitalization Program

The PHP at Branches Lansing runs Monday through Friday from 8:45 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. Daily attendance is recommended, because consistency often supports steadier symptom management over time.

This doesn’t mean progress has to appear flawless. Certain days may feel more challenging than others, and that’s a natural part of the journey, not a step backward.

Who Will Be on Your Treatment Team?

When you enroll in the PHP at Branches Lansing you will work with an interdisciplinary team focused on your needs. Treatment staff includes a psychiatrist, registered nurse, social worker/counselor and other professionals providing innovative and supportive services.

Your social worker or counselor also stays in contact with your outpatient providers and helps arrange follow-up care, so support doesn’t end when the program does.

What’s the difference between a PHP and an intensive outpatient program (IOP)?
A PHP is a full-day program, typically running from 8:45 a.m. to 3:15 p.m., Monday through Friday, which makes it a good fit if you need higher daytime support. An IOP offers part-time options, including midday and evening schedules. It usually runs four to six weeks, making it a good fit if you’re stable at home but still building coping skills. Cedar Creek Hospital also offers an IOP for adults at Branches Lansing.
