Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Boulder City Hospital provides structured, therapeutic care for individuals who need more support than outpatient treatment but do not require inpatient hospitalization.
We offer a wide range of services, including individual therapy, group therapy, medication management, family support, and wellness education. Each service is designed to help participants build coping skills, improve emotional stability, and foster long-term recovery.
The PHP runs during the day, allowing patients to return home in the evenings. This balance provides intensive treatment while maintaining important connections to family, work, and community life.
The program includes evidence-based therapies, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), skill-building sessions, and relapse-prevention planning. Patients benefit from a supportive environment where they can share experiences, practice new strategies, and build confidence in their recovery journey.
Admission to the Partial Hospitalization Program begins with a confidential assessment by our clinical team. We review each individual’s medical history, current challenges, and treatment needs to ensure PHP is the right level of care.
Referrals may come from physicians, mental health providers, or self-referrals. Our staff will guide you through every step of the admission process and provide clear information about what to expect before your first day in the program.

Why Choose Boulder City Hospital’s PHP?
At Boulder City Hospital, we believe healing takes place in a safe, structured, and compassionate setting. Our PHP is tailored to support individuals experiencing mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, or mood disorders. Patients gain valuable tools that help them better manage symptoms and move toward long-term stability.
Our program utilizes a Biophysical model of treatment that is interdisciplinary and considers the interconnectedness of biological, psychological, and socio-environmental factors to mental and emotional health.
This means patients are supported not just during their time in PHP but also in creating a clear plan for ongoing treatment once they step down to a lower level of care. We collaborate closely with families and outpatient providers to ensure a seamless transition.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the benefits of attending a Partial Hospitalization Program?
PHP provides intensive treatment without requiring an overnight hospital stay. Patients receive structured therapy, medical oversight, and peer support while still being able to return home each day. This approach allows for effective treatment while preserving daily routines and family connections.
What happens in a Partial Hospitalization Program?
During PHP, patients attend daily sessions that include group and individual therapy, skills training, and wellness education. Medication management is available when needed, and patients work closely with a care team to address their treatment goals. The program fosters a safe environment for building healthy coping strategies and improving overall well-being.
What is the difference between PHP and IOP?
PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) is more intensive than IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program). In PHP, patients typically spend more hours per day in treatment and attend more frequently during the week. IOP requires fewer hours and sessions, making it suitable for individuals who need structured support but with greater scheduling flexibility. PHP is often a step down from inpatient care, while IOP is a step down from PHP.
