Fairview Range offers new outpatient mental health program

Hometown Focus - 6/30/2017

HIBBING- Fairview Range is pleased to announce the opening of an Adult Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Fairview Range Medical Center. Fairview Range staff have responded to the community's need for PHP and developed the program designed to meet patients' specific needs.

The Partial Hospitalization Program is an intensive short-term outpatient group based program for adults age 18 and over and it runs Monday ? Friday from 9 a.m. ? 3 p.m. It is an option for those in the community who are experiencing an acute episode of anxiety, depression, and several other mental health issues.

"The ultimate goal is that our clients develop skills that enable them to better manage their symptoms and their lives," says Lauren Siebert, PHP intake coordinator at Fairview Range. "This three-week program helps individuals navigate what can sometimes be a rough transition back to work and/or home."

PHP offers peer support and access to medication managers, social workers and other mental health practitioners without the intensity of inpatient care.

The Partial Hospitalization Program is part of Fairview Range's efforts to expand its outpatient mental health services and offer programs that meet various levels of treatment needs. Additional programs include outpatient mental health counseling, Behavioral Health Home, and integrated Behavioral Health.
