Benchmark Transitions also offers outpatient programs, including our partial hospitalization program (PHP) and intensive outpatient program (IOP), which provide flexible treatment options for individuals who need structured support but prefer to live at home or in a transitional living environment.

This program offers full-day treatment while allowing clients to return home in the evenings and is ideal for those transitioning from residential or inpatient care. PHP is typically highly structured and provides the highest level of care for outpatient services.

2. Intensive outpatient program (IOP)

Our IOP provides flexible treatment schedules, allowing clients to receive care while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities. It is designed for individuals needing ongoing support in their recovery.

Reviews for Benchmark Transitions Treatment Center

It's truly a blessing to see the effects the program has on the clients...

I’ve seen some amazing things occur with the clients that have come through the program at Benchmark. I’ve seen wonderful turn-around with clients that will not even speak to staff and hold their head down always, to walking with their head held high, showing confidence, smiling, interacting and being talkative with staff and coming alive right before my eyes!

The transformation is so great to see – it’s truly a blessing to see the effects the program has on the clients!!!

I was introduced to everyone who will be involved in my son's treatment...

My 25 year old son checked in this past Thursday. My first impression is extremely positive. I was introduced to everyone who will be involved in my son’s treatment. I was given a tour of the facility and his schedule of treatment was discussed. The next day I received a phone call from my son and one of his mentors. I also received an email with information pertaining to the Family Bridge, a portal where parents and family members can write to their loved one at Benchmark. I see photos of my son enjoying hiking and positive activities with his peer group. It is so important to me that I am “in the loop” and know what is happening with my son (even if he is an adult at 25).

He had gone to another rehab last year and that experience was very different. Though we had an appointment, we were kept waiting for hours. I was never introduced to the staff, the program was never discussed. I was told that I could not see the rooms. They seemed disorganized and overwhelmed.

Benchmark does feel warm, caring and like a family. The 18-28 age group is perfect for us. Aside from addiction recovery, my son is learning vocational, educational and life skills (such as money management & career counseling). I will post again after 6 months. So far, I feel optimistic and relieved.
