Intake / Admissions Process
Placement
in our program is the culmination of a screening process that includes
the following steps:
Inquiry
Phone call from family. An initial assessment is done to determine, in general, if the proposed resident meets the entrance criteria. We send out an information/ application packet in response to this call.
Application Review
Upon receiving a completed application, it is reviewed here to determine if the needs of the prospective resident match-up well with what we have to offer as a program. This review evaluates the presented needs from an educational, social, and emotional aspect.
Phone Interview
As a follow-up to reviewing the application, a telephone interview is conducted, where clarification and further discussion takes place in order to explore, in greater detail, the circumstances and events leading up to requesting placement.
Set-up of Interview
At the conclusion of the phone interview, a determination is made as to whether a face-to-face interview is warranted. If it is apparent that the needs and our program are not a good match-up, a referral will be made to help find a program that better addresses the needs of the family. If the needs seem to match well with what we have to offer as a program, a face-to-face interview is set-up.
Interview / Intake
This
interview is the follow-up to the phone interview, and is the final stage
of screening. It is at the conclusion of this interview that a decision
is made as to whether the family will be accepted into the program. Having
an interview does not mean the family has been accepted. It does serve,
however, as the last hurdle to clear in the admissions process. If placement
is appropriate, the boy can be admitted immediately to the program, and
he will stay on the same day as the interview. Normally a family emphasis
time will be planned ahead, and the whole family will spend up to 5 days
here at the beginning of the program. If this is not feasible, that time
will be scheduled at a later date and the boy will enter the program at
the first interview.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact Shannon Shipley and Janice Hobson - Admissions Coordinators. Because of the nature of our program, we will not arrange tours or visits until we have progressed through the above stated process to the point of the Interview/Intake stage.
