Case Aide
This position will assist in family visits to determine how the family is functioning together while in the home, and to improve
the family's ability to access resources in the community. The case aide can take direction from the primary therapist
assigned to the family or the Social Services case worker. Duties to be performed by the case aide include, but are not
limited to, providing transportation to therapy, doctors appointments and court, supervised visits, child care while family is in
treatment, run errands such as filling prescriptions, shopping, and assisting in living skill development, assist the family in
developing other service links and miscellaneous functions to facilitate the stabilization of the family. (Case Aide tasks will
be mutually agreed upon between counselor and case worker and identified in the "Services Plan".)
Fast Track Adolescent Program
The Fast Track Adolescent Program is an Intensive Outpatient Program with residential services if clinically necessary. The
targeted population ranges from 13 to 17 years of age who demonstrate substance abuse problems. The goal is to have
these adolescents discover positive alternatives to their current use behavior.
The program consists of a comprehensive differential assessment compiling personal and collateral information as well as
data obtained from the Addiction Severity Index (ASI), Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory (SASSI) and the
Adolescent Self-Assessment Profile (ASAP) instruments. This data is utilized to develop an individualized treatment plan.
Clients receive a minimum of three individual sessions with the focus on achieving their treatment goals and attend three
groups per week and three per day if in residential with the primary focus on education and motivational topics. Family
therapy is encouraged as a part of the client's treatment. A discharge planning session will be implemented focusing on
appropriate referrals addressing the needs and motivation of the adolescent and family.
Referral Process to Fast Track Program:
Contact Kristen Arnold at (970) 356-6664. If she is not on duty, inform the staff person that Social Services is
referring a Fast Track adolescent and give the youth's case worker's name so that the Fast Track staff can contact the
case worker when they return to duty.
On-Site Staff Services
The scope of the services offered to the local Social Service agency by ADAD approved staff placed on site by the licensed
ADAD program may include performing alcohol and drug assessments, brief therapy (under 8 hours), case consultation, case
management, and in-house training on pertinent alcohol/drug issues as requested and training evaluation of care givers. In
addition to this, on-site staff may accompany Social Service staff on follow-up visits to perform a behavioral health screening
for the purpose of identifying clients who could benefit from further assessments for alcohol/drug interventions or mental
health interventions.
Enhanced Services
Enhanced services are approved services that are requested by Social Services for specific cases which fall outside of the
definitions listed above in the description of the ADAD menu of services. Enhanced services may be services not described
on the menu, services not included in the definition or due to lack of economy of scale, or rural location, or result in
additional costs to Compass. In order for Compass to provide the enhanced service, the cost would be outside of the
approved rates. Any additional fees would be negotiated on a case by case basis.
An example of a service outside of the approved definitions would be a request for a system evaluation. This would include
collateral contacts as appropriate with schools, parents, primary care giver, probation, and other significant persons in the
identified client's life. The information gathered from the collateral contacts would be included in the assessment findings
and treatment recommendations. If additional service is needed in order to meet a request by a local department such as
parenting skills assessment, additional fees may be added to the basic assessment fee. Psychological exams and
psychiatric testing are not included in the definition of the alcohol and drug evaluation. Normally this type of assessment
would be done with mental health dollars and not alcohol and drug (ADAD) funding. Other services such as home based
services which have a designated core service funding source should be paid for out of those funds. Compass could
supplement the home based services with in-home family alcohol and drug services as appropriate.
Compass providers can arrange for services outside of the approved definitions but the Social Service Department
requesting the specialized service will be charged an additional fee that would be negotiated on a case by case basis by the
designated representative listed in the contract. If the additional cost is recommended to be reimbursed with the ADAD
funds, the cost must be approved by Compass/Signal.
Another example of enhanced services which may be provided with higher fees may be intensive outpatient services, or the
use of a floater* or approved subcontractor for a specific task. The additional cost would be negotiated with the
respective Social Services Department.
* Floater - a temporarily assigned staff or subcontractor to perform a time specified alcohol or drug
related approved task.

Weld County Guidelines
On -Site Staff Services:
Child Welfare Section: Minimum of 20 hours per week, maximum of 28 - Weld County
will pay for 20 hours per week from Core service dollars regardless of utilization of on site
staff person by Social Services. Compass will bill the additional on-site staff time to the
ADAD contract on an "as used" basis. Weld County will not be billed for hours that the
staff person is not on site (due to illness, vacation, educational leave etc.) during the 20
hour minimum.
Case Aide/Case Management:
Youth in Conflict Section: Minimum of 16 hours per week, a maximum of 24. Compass
will bill the minimum weekly amount to the ADAD contract regardless of utilization of the
on site case aide/case management by Social Services. Any hours above the 16 per
week would also be billed to the ADAD contract on an "as used" basis. Compass will not
bill ADAD for hours that the staff person is not on site (due to illness, vacation,
educational leave etc.) during the 16 hour minimum.
Residential
Residential services for eligible persons will be paid from Compass funds, specifically the
ADAD Additional Family Services (AFS) allocations up to the 20% cap for the total AFS
allocation for Region 1. Thereafter, residential services will be billed to Social Services'
Core Services allocations not to exceed the 20% cap for the alcohol and drug core service
allocation to Region 1.
Ongoing Treatment
On going treatment services will be assigned to funding streams according to usage.
Youth Services
If Weld County does not approve Youth in Conflict (YIC) cases eligible for services
through Core Service dollars then all on-going YIC adolescent services will be paid for
from the ADAD funding stream.
Adolescent Residential Services
It has been determined that more regional adolescent beds are needed. Weld County and
Compass are interested in pursuing the development of residential adolescent alcohol and
drug services in Sub-State Planning Area 1. Other Area 1 Social Service Departments
have also expressed an interest in this type of project. This would be a blended funded
project involving dollars from several different funding stream sources including core
service and ADAD family service dollars. At the time, additional leg work is needed
before launching such a project. If the initial findings continue to support the need for
additional alcohol and drug adolescent residential treatment in Area 1, a project will be
initiated in the second half of this FY 98-99 utilizing these funds, with Signal's approval.
Funds from core service dollars ADAD dollars earmarked for use in this project will be
billed monthly in equal allocations based on the project budget and months the project is
operational in this contract year.
