Parent Testimony

"A Week at Youth Home"

Accreditation

Youth Home is accredited by The Joint Commission, which means our health care organization continuously complies with rigorous standards and successfully corrects deficiencies identified at our most recent survey and/or review.

Emergency Care

We have working relationships with the local hospitals and/or urgent care facilities. Whether a patient has an accident, engages in self-harm, or is in crisis (and therefore in need of additional support), we have protocols in place to get appropriate care for them immediately.

Aftercare Planning

Planning for a patient’s discharge is an important step in the overall treatment at Youth Home. Discharge planning begins on day one of treatment. Our goal is to provide patients with the therapeutic and life skills necessary to function in a home setting.

Credentialed Staff

In addition to meeting and exceeding credential regulations for our staff members, every staff member is fully and intensively trained in the Trauma Informed Care approach. Every person who is scheduled to work on our campus receives this training.
