Adult Partial Hospitalization Eating Disorder Program
Reconnecting with Daily Living
The Adult Partial Hospitalization Program combines the independence of living in the day-to-day world with a highly structured and supportive environment of a daily hospital program. This program is ideal for adults who need more structure and intensive treatment than outpatient care alone can provide. We believe with encouragement, self-determination and family support, patients can progress to outpatient treatment and a full recovery.
