The treatment team is comprised of a child psychiatrist (if utilized), a clinician, the classroom teacher and paraprofessional and a nurse. Nursing staff, dietary staff, and/or the behavior analyst participate in treatment planning when needed or requested. This team meets every 30 days to document progress on treatment objectives, and to update or formulate new treatment objectives that steer clients closer to discharge. Families are encouraged to participate in the treatment planning process, and when possible, clients actively participate in self -monitoring of their progress in treatment. Specialized assessments are used to systematically gather information specifically related to each individual clients' presenting problems. These can include assessment of adaptive behavior, life skills, trauma history and reactions (TSCC, TSI, UCLA PTSD Index), screening for risk of sexual offending (J -SOAP), Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA), Stages of Change Readiness (URICA), academic performance (TAP, WI -III), and other behavior rating assessments such as the BASC II.
