Paramus NJ, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center cut the ribbon for its new Teen T.H.R.I.V.E. Acute Partial Hospitalization Program.
The Teen T.H.R.I.V.E. Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is for teens ages 13-17 who need more acute care. The PHP program serves adolescents with a primary diagnosis of substance use disorder and a secondary co-occurring mental health diagnosis. The program offers more structure for teens without requiring them to participate in inpatient or other residential treatment settings. It allows adolescents to remain at home while receiving the treatment and support they need.
“In recent years, teens have faced increasingly complex challenges and as a result many have turned to substance use which has led to an alarming rise in teen overdoses,” said Deborah Visconi, President & CEO, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center. “Today, we are cutting the ribbon on a transformative model of care for one of the most vulnerable populations in our community. We are committed to meeting critical unmet needs while eliminating barriers to care.”
The PHP program includes support groups, individual therapy, family therapy, medication management, academic support, and aftercare planning. The team addresses every adolescent’s well-being through a holistic approach.
The PHP program is the only one in Bergen County that accepts Medicaid and Charity Care patients, removing financial barriers to care. Transportation is provided to and from the program. Teens in the PHP program attend Monday through Friday for 20 hours of treatment weekly. PHP includes an educational program that teens participate in during the school day.
