Care Management: Adolescents
 

A Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) is a 90-day authorization where children and teenagers live on a temporary basis to get treatment for severe emotional and/or behavioral disorders that cannot be managed in the community. CRR and TFC are for adolescents who can’t remain in the community with only natural resources, but don’t need the structure of an RTF program. With these services, the individual resides with a family extensively trained in working with children experiencing behavioral and emotional difficulty.

Psychological testing assesses specific aspects of an individual’s psychological makeup (such as IQ and personality), while neuropsychological testing determines how brain issues affect one’s ability to reason, concentrate, remember information, and solve problems.
