Length of treatment is determined individually with each patient according to their diagnosis and needs.

Some patients with less severe symptoms may require a shorter period of time in treatment to interrupt their eating disorder behaviors. As patients meet individualized goals, they transition to less intensive treatment, attending fewer days per week or fewer hours per day. The length of stay in the partial hospitalization program ranges from four to eight weeks.
