30-Day Assessment Program
Comprehensive Assessment
Alexander’s 30-Day Assessment program serves up to six children in our Charlotte PRTF facility who are in need of comprehensive diagnostic assessment while determining admission to the PRTF program.
The 30-Day Assessment unit provides an intensely supervised treatment setting providing stabilization, diagnostic evaluation, psychiatric treatment, 24-hour nursing, and post-discharge/aftercare treatment planning.
Treatment Recommendations & Planning
Children in the program receive a psychological evaluation within two weeks of admission, allowing the team to offer comprehensive recommendations for ongoing behavioral health treatment.
In many cases, recommendations made by the 30-Day Assessment team allow children to return to their home community and avoid a longer course of residential treatment.
