RTF (Residential Treatment Facility) Group
The RTF Group coordinates identified behavioral health treatment for
Allegheny County's children and adolescents up to age twenty-one. It is the
single point of contact for referrals in Allegheny County. RTF Treatment is a
short term, out of home placement in a Residential Treatment Facility that
provides intensive behavioral health services in a 24-hour staff secure setting.
The RTF Group offers individualized case management by processing RTF
referrals, assisting the family in identifying a treatment program for their
child and continuous monitoring while the child is in an RTF. Our case managers
work closely with families and providers to ensure the delivery of quality
services. We participate as part of a team to plan for ongoing mental health
treatment, discharge planning and re-integration back into the community.
