Adequate Treatment Sample Clauses

Adequate Treatment. The State shall provide adequate mental health and substance abuse care and treatment services (including timely emergency services) and an adequate number of qualified mental health professionals. Psychiatric care shall be appropriate to the adolescent population of the facility and shall be integrated with other mental health services. Compliance Rating Substantial Compliance (as of June 30, 2008) Discussion Hope Health continues to employ a well trained and highly motivated team of skilled child mental health and chemical dependency clinicians. Psychiatric care is provided 35 hours per week with on call availability on evenings and weekends. The psychiatrist continues to be an active member of the treatment team and plays an increasingly important role in the development of treatment strategies for individual youth and support and guidance for other staff mental health professionals. Significant improvements were noted in the adequacy of treatment plans and the specificity that clinicians developed treatment goals and ways to measure achievement of these goals. Although treatment strategies are improved and are in substantial compliance continued emphasis on the utilization of evidence based treatment for depression, anxiety, conduct, and post traumatic stress disorder could improve treatment outcomes. Although parent/guardian involvement continues to be minimal the mental health staff is highly motivated to engage families and see it as priority for improved treatment outcomes. In the previous report the issue of lack of private space for clinicians was noted—the issue has been resolved and clinicians now have adequate space to conduct confidential sessions with youth. Recommendations The State is in substantial compliance with this provision as of June 30, 2008. It is further recommended that the State: 1. Continue to implement evidence based treatments 2. Implement group programs such as Anger Replacement Training to improve youth skills in managing anger. Evidentiary Basis Staff and youth interviews, Document and Chart Reviews

Psychiatric care shall be appropriate to the adolescent population of the facilities and shall be integrated with other mental health services. Status Xxxxxx School Substantial Compliance (as of June 30, 2007) Cheltenham Youth Facility Substantial Compliance (as of October 1, 2007) Discussion Glass and Associates have maintained a skillful staff who evidence a clear commitment to providing “state of the art” behavioral health services to the youth housed at both facilities. Individual and group treatment strategies continue to improve. The leadership and supervisory skills of Drs. Xxxxx, Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx are exemplary. Increased emphasis on family involvement and transition planning was noted although this is an area that continues to require improvement. Mental health staff continues to report inappropriate verbal threats and cursing by staff which undermines treatment strategies for youth being encouraged to use self regulation strategies in response to frustration and anger. Recommendations Both facilities are in substantial compliance with this provision. Xxxxxx has been in substantial compliance for 12 months, beginning June 30, 2007 and CYF has been in compliance for 9 months, beginning October 1, 2007. Evidentiary Basis Chart reviews, staff and youth interviews, observation of individual and group mental health services
Adequate Treatment. The State shall develop and implement policies, procedures, protocols, and practices to ensure that adequate mental health and substance abuse care and treatment services (including timely emergency services) are provided by qualified mental health professionals utilizing evidence-based, generally accepted treatment approaches.
