Intensive Outpatient Program

IOP Expectations Program

Typically, patients receive 21 treatment days, in a group setting, although family and individual sessions can be provided.

Services begin with a comprehensive assessment by the team members. A treatment plan is developed to coordinate medical and psychiatric needs. The focus is restoring quality of life and improvement of day to day management of symptoms. Medication management and education plays a significant role in psychiatric stabilization and treatment of our patients.

IOP can usually provide transportation to and from groups.

Discharge planning begins soon after admission to the program. The goal is to provide a seamless transition to the best environment for the patient’s continued success.

While a physician can and often does make a referral to the program, anyone can make a confidential referral to the Senior Care IOP Program.
