Northridge Hospital Medical Center

• Inpatient Hospitalization Program: Our Inpatient Behavioral Health Program is for patients who are unable to function due to psychiatric difficulties. Our program provides intensive therapy, support, structure, and stability in a safe and therapeutic environment.
• Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): Clients attend groups with a variety of platforms to meet their therapeutic needs such as cognitive behavioral therapy education groups, recreational therapy, art therapy and process groups. Our program members will also meet with the program psychiatrist weekly to address any concerns that may require the support of a physician.
• Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): This program provides all the same therapeutic benefits/groups as PHP while allowing clients more free time during the week. Clients can be admitted directly into the IOP program or IOP may be utilized as a “step down” from more intensive programs such as PHP, inpatient or Residential Treatment. The slow “step down” process helps to provide support while clients prepare to return to the traditional outpatient therapy or psychiatrist appointments.
