The Partial Hospitalization Program, or PHP, at Casa Palmera in San Diego is a step-down from our inpatient program. A major difference from inpatient treatment is that partial hospitalization program offers a structured, but less restricted plan, and is designed for those who do not meet medical necessity for a higher level of care.
