Our staff develops a treatment plan for each child that targets specific behaviors related to the child's psychiatric and behavioral problems. Our nurses, counselors and therapeutic recreation staff monitor behaviors and incorporate related skill-building activities into each child's treatment. We teach each youth to take responsibility for their own behavior. Through skill-building activities and educational groups, each youth can earn positive rewards for improved behavior. Immediate reinforcement by staff for all behaviors is key to this program.
All young people participate in daily structured school programming based on their individual needs.
Our teachers evaluate each youth and then works closely with the school to provide the needed course work. Classes are scheduled five days per week, and are taught by Certified Special Education teachers. Our visiting hours for children and adolescents are extremely flexible to accommodate families and their busy schedule s. For young children with disruptive behavior disorders and severe impulse control problems, a consistent treatment approach, a safe environment, and constant monitoring of behaviors is critical. Our IBP staff develop a treatment plan for each child that targets specific behaviors related to the child's psychiatric and behavioral problems.
