SERVICE GOALS

​

​

​

​

The primary goals of River City Residential Services LLC are to: (1) decrease rates of substance use and other clinical problems that often lead to hospitalization, incarceration, etc., (2) improve the patient’s psychosocial functioning (i.e., family relations, daily life skill application, community involvement, employment), and (3) achieve these outcomes in a manner that is consistent with the health, welfare, and overall well-being of our patients and the community.

​

River City Residential Services LLC aims to achieve these goals through an Individualized Services Plan that addresses risk factors in an individualized, comprehensive, and integrated fashion; and that empowers patients as well as their families and/or authorized representatives to enhance their coping, adapting, and independent living skills. We deliver our services to our patients at our Department approved facilities with a person-centered focus and purpose to:  

​

1. Diffuse and stabilize the presenting SUD crisis through a timely evaluation and intervention that is focused around residential treatment services. The goal is to reduce trauma of SUD to the patients and their family system, as well as prevent the likelihood of ongoing long-term substance use and continued trauma.
2. ​Provide a comprehensive assessment and develop, implement, and regularly evaluate a multi-systemic Individualized Service Plan (ISP) that provides corrective interventions for the presenting substance use disorder(s), cognitive, emotional, and behavioral issues, as well as any environmental conditions that threaten current or future ability to maintain overall functioning and independence.
3. ​Provide education, support, training, and feedback to patients and their families and/or authorized representatives to foster the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities for managing the patient’s substance use disorder(s), psychiatric health, and psychosocial conditions. This may include, but not be limited to medical, educational, therapy, activities of daily living (ADLs), independent living skills (ILS), educational services and specific methodology for self-help. 
4. ​Ensure linkage to needed community services and resources to promote long-term independence and sustainability of treatment gains.
