Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) in Great Falls, MT

Intensive, structured treatment during the day — while you return home or to sober housing each night. Because life doesn’t stop for recovery.

Elk Ridge Recovery’s PHP offers a high level of clinical support for clients who need more than traditional outpatient care, without a residential stay.

ACCREDITED & TRUSTED

What Is PHP?

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a structured, evidence-based level of outpatient care for clients who need intensive clinical support while beginning to rebuild daily life.

It offers many of the same therapeutic services as residential treatment — but without an overnight stay — making it a strong next step after residential care, or a starting point for those who don’t require 24/7 supervision.

You Have Questions. We Have Answers.

What is PHP, and how is it different from residential treatment?

PHP provides structured, intensive treatment during the day without an overnight stay, allowing clients to return home or to sober housing each evening while continuing a high level of clinical support.

How is PHP different from IOP?

PHP typically involves more hours of treatment per week than IOP, making it a strong option for clients who need a higher level of structure — often as a step down from residential care or a step up from standard outpatient support.

How many days a week is PHP?

Our PHP program runs several days a week with multiple hours of programming each day. Call our admissions team for the current schedule.

Do I need to complete residential treatment first?

Not necessarily. While many clients step down into PHP after residential care, others begin treatment directly in PHP depending on their clinical needs. Our team will help determine the right level of care for you.
