This paper reviews partial hospitalization in the context of the continuum of care of mental health services. This is accomplished through the analysis of four case examples that illustrate different modalities offered by these programs. Myths about this treatment modality are discussed in light of available evidence. The principal functions, in addition to the fundamental and unique features characteristic of partial hospitalization are identified and discussed
