School-based Psychosocial Rehabilitation Services
CenterPointe provides Psychosocial Rehabilitation services to students within our community’s school districts at the request of the school district. In order to receive school-based psychosocial rehabilitation services from CenterPointe, a student must have:
- A referral to CenterPointe from the school district.
- An Individualized Education Plan (IEP) indicating the student needs Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR) Services.
Once we receive such a request from the school district, a CenterPointe director attends the student’s IEP meeting to gain a better understanding of that child’s needs. From there, a treatment plan is designed to meet those specific needs and is presented to the school district. A start date is then determined by the school district and given to CenterPointe. At this time, a Psychosocial Rehabilitation Specialist is assigned to work with the student throughout the school year.
Continuity of care is especially important for children and adolescents. At CenterPointe, our exceptionally high employee retention rate of 95% enables us to offer each student a PSR Specialist who, typically, will remain with the student throughout the entire year. In fact, it is not uncommon for students to continue with the same PSR specialist the following year.
