Admission Process

REFERRAL AND ADMISSION PROCESS

The BBR residential treatment program is designed for adolescent males, ages 13 to 18, who have a history of sexual problems and abuse.   The BBR accepts young men of all religions, racial, and ethnic backgrounds.  Please review the list to the below as a general guideline for admission criteria.


AN APPROPRIATE REFERRAL

An appropriate referral meets the following criteria:

  • Male, 13 to 18 years old on admission

  • History of sexual issues and/or a history of highly sexualized behavior

  • IQ of 80 or above

  • Functional ability to participate in the treatment program

  • Display of potential to benefit form therapeutic residential placement


EVALUATION & ASSESSMENT

The BBR staff will ask for the following referral information:

  • Psychological evaluation

  • Psychosexual evaluation

  • Social history

  • Educational Information

  • Medical, physical, and medication history

  • Selection and Placement


EXCLUSIONARY CRITERIA

  • Severe and unmanageable mental illness

  • Actively homicidal

  • Actively suicidal

  • Chronic use of extreme violence

  • Medical or physical condition that require intensive maintenance

  • Severe intellectual handicaps


Each youth referred to our program is evaluated individually as the level of care needed and the severity of the presenting problem. We want to be of service in any way that we can.  If you are not sure of your child's status relative to the criteria or would like to discuss a particular situation, we would be happy to assist in reviewing possible options.

After receiving the information listed to the left, a BBR clinician will carefully assess the referred youth in order to determine his appropriateness for placement in the program.  Arrangements for an interview are scheduled at the earliest convenience of the youth and his family and in the location of choice.  If admitted into the BBR program, transportation for the youth can be provided when necessary.  The BBR staff welcomes the referred youth, his family, consultant, and case manager to tour the Birdseye Boys Ranch prior to placement.
