Focus Healthcare of Tennessee´s Intensive Outpatient Program is designed to allow for increased flexibility while continuing therapy, education, and early recovery activities needed for steady progress. This program, like all other programs at Focus Healthcare, is individualized. You will start to engage in recovery activities in the community and continue attending 12-Step support groups, as well as obtaining a sponsor if you have not already done so. Issues of importance include: relapse prevention, building a personal support system, strengthening relationships and continued education about recovery.

IOP Schedule

Focus Healthcare offers day or evening IOP programs to our patients. This flexibility in scheduling is designed to assist you by accommodating your work schedule. IOP clients are required to attend at least 3 sessions per week. Each session is 3 and a half hours. Lunch is not a part of your IOP program.

• Morning IOP: 8:30 am – Noon
• Evening IOP: 5:30pm – 9:00pm

In addition to your PHP/IOP sessions, you and your primary counselor will agree on a specific number of 12–Step support group meetings that you will be attending each week. A verification form is provided to document the support groups you attend.
