Today we welcome your tour-guide Jill Sechi, RDN, CEDS-C to discuss her experience with starting up one of the first PHP/IOP programs in Houston, TX called Houston Eating Disorders Center (HEDC).  Houston was a desert when Jill started in the field and now its a thriving rainforest of many RTC and PHP/IOP programs.  PHP programming generally is 5-7 days a week and usually upwards of 12 hours a day. Most PHP programs have IOP programs as "step downs" in which the patient often gets to work with the same treatment team for consistency and support. Learn from Jill when to refer to this level, when not and the functions of PHP and IOP programming.  Most states have PHP and IOP programming. Some even have apartments connected to them so that they do not have to travel to and from home which can be difficult. We hope you find this informative and helpful as you navigate when and HOW  to refer patients! Join us on Apple Podcasts to listen to the full extended episode in our Subscriber Backend episodes!
