[QUOTE="Sagegrad, post: 244371, member: 6481"] I can only answer some of your questions regarting Residential Treatment Facility (RTF)'s. We were lucky that after 2 emergency PHospital stays (a total of 30 days), our insurance company saw the value in paying for Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) ($300/day) vs Emergency psychiatric hospital stays (+/- $1000/day). As far as what we say to family and friends is that it is the best thing for our daughter and hopefully will result in her getting to a turning point. Our close friends know all about what we've gone through and they understand the situation. When other people ask, I just say "shes great". We did alot of reasearch before we found a place - and as a matter of fact the Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) we chose was out of network for our insurance but got insurance to cover it because the in-network places were full. Get input from the proffesionals in your area (psychiatrists,therapists, etc and make visits) Im wishing you the best of luck and you've found a great place for support. The people on this board are truly amazing parents and even if you dont contribute, it's worth reading and learning from the posts. Sage [/QUOTE]
