Prairie St. John’s Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is appropriate for patients who have mild to moderate mental, emotional, and/or substance use disorders who require coordinated, intensive, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary treatment. PHP is appropriate for patients who are able to maintain themselves in the community at a minimum to moderate level of functioning and those who present no immediate threat to themselves or others.

PHP also is beneficial for patients who are making a transition from inpatient care back into the community or can be a supplement to the recovery process for patients who have failed to respond adequately to standard weekly outpatient therapy.

The average length of stay in Fargo varies between 3-4 weeks. Treatment includes group therapy and individual sessions with a nurse practitioner or a psychiatrist. PHP is held Monday through Friday from 8:30 am – 2 pm. Lunch is provided.
