The center offers acute care service for up to 24 children and adolescents, 4 to 21 years old, who present with serious behavioral disorders in addition to a developmental condition, such as mental retardation or autism. Children admitted to the inpatient service have been identified as a danger to themselves (exhibit self-injurious behavior) and/or others (outwardly aggressive). The inpatient service has a national reputation for outstanding clinical care and has evaluated and treated children and adolescents from 27 states. Inpatient services for developmentally disabled patients make up only a small portion of our overall program.
