Children's Crisis Stabilization Unit

Children's Crisis Stabilization Unit

Children's Crisis Stabilization Unit

The purpose of the unit is to intervene in crisis situations in which children are at risk for placement outside of the home or placement into a psychiatric hospital. This is achieved through an intensive, short-term residential treatment program aimed at restoring the child to a pre-crisis level of functioning. In addition to intervening in crisis situations, the program focuses upon teaching children and their families the skills necessary to deal with future crises. This is achieved through the use of intensive individual, group, and family therapy. Psychiatric and medication consultations are also available through the facility. Staff members include a psychiatrist, a psychologist, social workers, counselors, and residential staff specially trained to work with children in crisis situations. The unit has also been designed to be as home-like as possible in an effort to foster the transfer of learning on the unit to the child’s home environment. The unit operates continuously and staff are present at all times to assist children and their families who are experiencing crisis.
