OUTPATIENT SERVICES:  Consumers are seen on a scheduled or emergency basis. Services are provided to an individual with a mental illness or emotional problem or to a person whose daily life is disrupted by personal or interpersonal problems. Individual, family, and group therapy are provided to meet the specific needs of each consumer. Medication management is provided by agency psychiatrists. 

CASE MANAGEMENT (ADULTS):  These services are available for individuals who have both a long-term mental illness and difficulty adjusting to community living. Case Management services include development of individualized service plans, making referrals to appropriate service providers and assuring our consumer receive the services he or she needs. Our goal in Case Management is to assist an individual with mental illness to remain in the community, rather than experience long-term hospitalizations. 

THERAPEUTIC REHABILITION:  This goal oriented program is designed to benefit individuals with severe mental illness, who require less than 24 hour a day care, but more than outpatient counseling. Participants of Therapeutic Rehabilitation are involved in the treatment planning process and are involved in activities which will foster the development and enhancement of social and daily living skills. Ultimately, the purpose of the program is to enable individuals to live, learn, and work in the community. 

SOCIAL CLUB DROP-IN:  Personal growth, peer support and self-help are the focus for participants of the Social Drop-In Group. Social Drop-In Group members plan activities such as an afternoon of bowling, a trip to the mall or a picnic in the park. Program staff is available to assist in carrying out these plans. Membership in the program is voluntary; however participants are usually involved in other agency programs such as Therapeutic Rehabilitation or Outpatient Counseling. 

PARTIAL HOSPITALIZATION:   This daytime program is for adolescent and preadolescents with severe emotional disorders. This program includes an intense educational component within the school year, daily psychiatric monitoring, and intensive therapy throughout the year. 

SEVERELY EMOTIONALLY DISABLED CHILDREN’S CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM:  The SED Children’s Case Management Program serves children who are having difficulty in more than one area of their lives, such as in school, at home and in the community. This program coordinates communication between the children, their family, and any involved professional, such as the Department for Social Services, mental health therapists, doctors, and school representatives. The goal of this program is to keep the child in his or her community and to improve his or her functioning. 

HOSPITAL SERVICES:  Agency staff will work with the hospitals to facilitate voluntary patient admission to, and discharge from, these programs. Persons who require more intensive care or longer treatment may be hospitalized at Western State Hospital in Hopkinsville. 

PREADMISSION SCREENING AND RESIDENT REVIEW (PASRR):  Four Rivers Behavioral Health will conduct a comprehensive assessment, referred to as a PASRR Level II evaluation for individuals with severe mental illness, mental retardation, or other related conditions in Medicaid certified nursing facilities, who are awaiting nursing home admission, to determine the person’s need for specialized services. The PASRR evaluation was designed to eliminate the inappropriate placement of people with mental illness, mental retardation and other related conditions in Medicaid certified nursing facilities.
