MHF-F13-6356

Youth came into our ER on 12/2 after an episode of aggression at the Crisis Home. The crisis home will be willing to take them back in the future, but not until the other individual in the home has moved out, which won’t be taking place until end of January, They also want to have increased staffing and put rights restrictions into place. It will be almost 2 months before that can happen. Looking for an interim plan for them. Pt is open to waiver, has mild intellectual disability. Also has CMH, but treatment placements are not being explored as pt has been to those in the past (Northwood, Chelida, and Grafton) and more recently treatment placements have all denied them, so primarily looking at waiver paid placements.
