Residential Treatment Facilities

When a child is identified has having a significant mental health challenge with multiple

hospitalizations and the child cannot be maintained in a community or home based setting Residential

treatment may be more appropriate. Referrals should be sent to the regional field office for review by

the (PACC) Pre- Admission Certification Committee. The PACC determines whether RTF level of care is

appropriate for the child. The coordinator notifies the referral source about the PACC decision and, if

accepted, the child and care giver should tour the residential program

PACC coordinator: Barbara Profitt NYS OMH 330 Fifth Ave. NYNY 10001 212-330-6371

The RTF level of care is considered a short term residential intervention, not a placement. The expected

length of stay is 3-9 months.
