Residential Treatment Referral
Process
Young people referred for Residential Treatment are
officially considered upon receipt of a referral packet
from an approved funding source. Although referrals
may be initiated by telephone inquiry to the intake
coordinator, the referral packet must be received in
order for the referral to be officially processed.
After the intake coordinator reviews and logs all referrals,
an initial screening is made to determine if Cunningham
is the appropriate place for the youth and if space
is available in the residential program. The intake
coordinator then arranges an assessment interview when
the referring agent can bring the youth to Cunningham.
During the assessment, the intake coordinator meets
with the referral agent to gather more detailed information
regarding social history, presenting problems and request
for services. The youth will also have an individual
interview with the Associate Director of Residential/Clinical
Services and other cottage representatives.
Following the assessment interviews the intake coordinator
reviews the referral with the director of residential
programs. A decision is then made with regard to placement
at Cunningham.
