[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 581647, member: 11001"] The amount of violence would concern me as well. This was not something we experienced at either Residential Treatment Center (RTC) over the years. My difficult child is not violent either and that would concern me. I agree that the way it is handled is key. My other question is how are the staff trained? Do they have deescalation training? MANDT Traing to safely restrain? Our kids spend most of their time with nonprofessional staff at these places (this actually was a huge issue for us as abuse happened with Several of these people who were under trained), are they paying attention to the boiling pot and heading off these fights? While you like the professional staff, the honest truth is the nonprofessional staff can undo some of the therapeutic effect......this was my experience and the state run place was actually cited for this and then shut down Last year. Just be on your toes and i like the idea of double checking that this is the best placement. [/QUOTE]
