[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 571788, member: 6546"] Don't want to get up on my soapbox here - but this is one of my biggest complaints about the MH system at the moment. Decisions are being made based upon what is most cost-effective and not on what is best for the child or the community. I can remember RTCs rejecting our application - explaining that they were not equipped to handle my child's many needs - and yet, the therapist assured us that WE, the parents, could handle everything just fine. So, too much for a 24/7/365 Residential Treatment Center (RTC) to handle - but just fine for two, untrained people with jobs and other obligations including another child in the house. That STILL makes no sense to me... [/QUOTE]
