Questions people ask about Mentally Ill Kids in Distress
Which levels of care does Mentally Ill Kids in Distress have?

Is there anywhere else close by?
There are 4 more within a short drive of Kingman, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
What separates a good program from a bad one?
The useful comparisons are concrete: the level of care, whether there is a prescriber, what the aftercare is, and the cost. The daily schedule is the most revealing document a program holds, and most will send it on request. Write down four questions and ask every place the same four.
What happens to the medication I already take?
Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. Pill organizers are often refused at the door, because medication has to arrive labeled. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.
How long is the wait?
A bed is not something anyone can hold for you on a maybe, which is most of why lists exist. A wait for residential care is not a wait for all care, and the lower levels often start sooner. Ask who to call if things get worse while you are waiting, and write that number down.
