outpatient therapy
Non-residential medical care
Outpatient therapy is treatment—typically mental health counseling or physical rehabilitation—that doesn't require staying overnight at a hospital or facility.
The patient arrives for scheduled sessions and goes home afterward: She attends outpatient therapy twice a week for her anxiety.
It contrasts with inpatient treatment, where patients remain under continuous care.
