How does the admissions/intake process work?
The initial information and intake process begins with Yellowbrick’s Clinical Services Coordinator. Conversations over the phone with both the emerging adult and the family serve as an initial evaluation concerning whether Yellowbrick programs and services are an appropriate fit. The intake process can also include a tour and information session — for which there is no charge — which allows the family and emerging adult to receive detailed information about life at Yellowbrick. The next step is scheduling the assessment. When that is in place, the Clinical Services Coordinator will interview the young adult to complete a detailed individual and family history. Emerging adults and families are active participants in the assessment process which includes completing a battery of research validated self report diagnostic instruments. Admission can occur at any point at the conclusion of the assessment.
