The concept for this book was initiated prior to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide a resource for clinicians, trainees, administrators, educators, research ers, and patients looking to better understand current models of intermediate mental health care, which includes partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) and intensive outpatient programs (IOPs). The impact of the COVID-19 pan demic as this book was written further emphasizes the importance of these treatment programs for youth with mental health concerns. Day treatment pro grams for youth including PHPs and IOPs provide an intermediate level of treatment between outpatient and acute inpatient psychiatric hospitalization (IPH).
These programs have traditionally utilized a multidisciplinary approach using process and skill-based groups and individual therapy. However, over the past decade, some IOPs and PHPs have begun to integrate evidence-based treatment (EBT) and caregivers into their treatment model. Additionally, the admission criteria have become more focused on a particular illness or disor der (e.g., anxiety, depression, and suicide). Further, caregivers and referral sources may not be aware of the range of programs available. Additionally, mental health organizations may beneft from information to develop their own intermediate treatment models. A review of literature found a dearth of resources focused on PHPs and IOPs for youth.
