The goal of this study was to assess if the severity of mental health symptoms decreased and functioning increased in clients who attended a combined partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient program (IOP) in a Midwestern rural hospital over a three-year period. It was hypothesized that there would be a decrease in the severity of symptoms and an increase in functioning between admission and discharge. Symptom and function improvement were defined by lower total scores on the Behavior and Symptom Identification Scale (BASIS-32), comparing data collected at admission to data collected just prior to discharge. Analyses of a pre and post-test using the BASIS-32 total scores with a paired t-test indicated a statistically significant reduction in overall scores from admission to discharge. Patient satisfaction was comparable to the national average in the United States. The results of this study are beneficial to various stakeholders, including counselors, counselor supervisors, counselor educators, the medical community, current and potential persons in PHP or IOP and their supports, payer sources, and the Association for Ambulatory Behavioral Healthcare (AABH). Implications of the study, limitations, and suggestions for future research, are presented. 2021-06-03 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1610563382276869 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1610563382276869 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
