Inpatient Program for Adults

Many adults suffer from a behavioral health disorder or co-occurring disorders that damages their relationships and duties at home and work. For people with these challenges, their condition may become so severe that they may benefit from intensive, 24-hour care at a behavioral health facility.

Clive Behavioral Health in Des Moines, Iowa, offers a compassionate inpatient program to help adults with a behavioral health disorder or co-occurring disorders. The program is designed to help them achieve mental stability or long-term stability. Additionally, we offer dual diagnosis treatment for individuals who suffer from co-occurring behavioral health and substance use disorder issues.

Patients receive a clinical evaluation at admission. This allows our care providers to help the patient create a personal treatment plan that targets their needs and goals.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) for Adults (18+)

Partial hospitalization is a highly structured, short-term day program for adults who would benefit from an intensive outpatient program. The program is designed to help prevent hospitalization or to facilitate the transition from the hospital back into the community.

The program is Monday through Friday, for four hours each day. There is a morning session (8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.) and an afternoon session (12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.). A typical participant will attend for approximately four weeks. Our program helps individuals identify negative core beliefs and maladaptive behaviors. Patients are introduced to a mindfulness-based, non-judgmental mindset designed to relieve acute symptoms and increase resiliency. Licensed clinicians and a psychiatric nurse practitioner coordinate care and meet with each patient both in groups and individually.

Evening Adult Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Clive Behavioral Health’s evening Adult Intensive Outpatient Program is held Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., lasting approximately four weeks. This group program provides similar programming and curriculum as our PHP program but is only three-days per week for three-hours each day. It is geared as a step-down program as a transition away from PHP or as an alternative evening offering for those who have work commitments during the day.
