Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) are the two step-down levels between residential treatment and standard outpatient care. Both are available at The Recovery Village Columbus. Understanding the difference helps patients and families plan the transition from residential care.
Partial Hospitalization (PHP)
Five to six hours of clinical programming, five days a week — individual therapy, group therapy, psychiatric care, medication management. Patients sleep at home or in sober living. PHP is the closest thing to residential treatment without overnight stay and is the typical first step down. It suits patients who have stabilized medically but need daily structure and support. See partial hospitalization program.
Intensive Outpatient (IOP)
Three hours of programming, three to five days a week, typically in evening or daytime blocks that accommodate work or school. Group therapy is the core, with individual sessions and psychiatric follow-up. IOP suits patients who have completed PHP or whose presentation never required higher intensity. It can continue for months. See intensive outpatient program.
Virtual IOP
The Recovery Village Columbus delivers IOP through the Nobu teletherapy app, allowing patients across Ohio to continue care after returning home from residential treatment.

The Sequence
Residential → PHP → IOP → outpatient → aftercare is the typical path. Each transition is a clinical decision based on stability and progress, not a fixed calendar. Aftercare planning maps this out before residential discharge.
