Each year more than 50,000 children and adolescents receive mental
health treatment in residential and inpatient settings such as
hospitals, group homes, and residential treatment centers. How is a
decision made to disrupt a child's or teen's environment and place
him or her in a program? What factors should be considered? What
kinds of treatment are offered in these settings? How
cost-effective and productive are these programs? Suggesting
guidelines for how and when to use these special services, Treating
Children and Adolescents in Residential and Inpatient Settings
provides a useful assessment of current therapeutic models and
inpatient/residential treatment options. The authors review the
findings of published program evaluations and discuss effective
alternatives to residential placement, such as part-time day and
community-based treatment. The book also includes a list of
relevant resources that both professionals and parents will find
helpful, including information on locating professional and
advocacy organizations, publications, and assessment materials.
Referring a child or teen to an intensive residential or inpatient
treatment program is a major decision that affects the whole
family. Treating Children and Adolescents in Residential and
Inpatient Settings will help both professionals and parents make
better informed decisions about institutionalizing children and
adolescents. Likewise, students, researchers, and scholars in
clinical/counseling psychology, developmental psychology, nursing,
behavioral psychology, and social work will find interesting and
pertinent information in this volume.
