Effective Day Programs for Mental Health

If you or a family member has moderate or severe mental health issues, a partial hospitalization program might be the right solution. Through Sutter’s partial hospitalization programs, people typically spend five to six hours each week day in the hospital, but go home to sleep each evening. Our programs help many people get symptoms under control and return to fully functioning and productive lives.

While at the hospital, our patients receive the same evaluation and diagnostic services that are available to outpatients, including psychiatric evaluation, psychological testing, medication management and assessment for substance use and eating disorders.

Once we make a diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan, you might participate in a variety of therapeutic services including:

  • Individual therapy
  • Group therapy and educational sessions
  • Family and relationship therapy and education
  • Recreational therapy programs, including pet therapy, art therapy and drama therapy

In the partial hospitalization programs, we offer many services in a group setting, allowing you to develop peer relationships and draw strength and hope from the experiences of others. Some people also receive physical healthcare and case management services.

A partial hospitalization program can be an excellent alternative to full hospitalization for people who do not need 24-hour care. They also serve as a transitional program for those who have been hospitalized but are not ready to return to daily life.

Need More Intensive Treatment?

For some people with severe mental health issues, an inpatient hospital stay is the best option for treatment. In a safe and secure facility, our staff can help you get started with effective treatment and eventually step down to a less-intensive outpatient program.

Mental Health Research

Sutter Health Mental Health Research
About 26 percent of Americans each year suffer from a mental health disorder like depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and anorexia. Our mental health affects our family, our job, how well we live and how soon we die. It’s important to find effective treatments and ways to prevent the damage from mental illness.
