Assisted admissions is commonly used to transport your teen into residential treatment. Professional assistance can be a safe way to begin the process of recovery and healing of your troubled teenager. Choosing the right teen intervention crisis team is imperative to start your journey.
Assisted admissions are sometimes referred to as teen transport services. It’s important to understand that most parents rely on these professionals to help them begin their very difficult decision of residential treatment.
Some teens are willing to get help; yet the majority of young people don’t believe they have any problems; this is when there is need for assisted admissions into a therapeutic boarding school or residential treatment program.
Parents need to be careful with some teenagers that agree to get help, only to appease (manipulate) their parents — yet when it comes to actually attending a program, they will run away. We have heard from parents that expected to enroll their teenager at a program, however their child ran away the night before. This can be extremely frightening and frustrating. Only you can know if your teen is being genuine in their desire to get help.
Assisted Transport for Teens

Since transporting your teen can be a difficult decision, it is very important to choose qualified and credentialed professionals. The assisted admissions should be licensed and insured to transport teens and also have various degrees and/or background in education, psychology, behavioral science, mental health, or other related fields.
We encourage parents to talk to other parents that have used these services to better understand how they work. Don’t rely on the internet and some stories that are geared towards fearmongering – many are from decades ago before this service was regulated. Be smart, hire licensed and insured teams, talk to parent references and get your child the help they need. The service you are considering should be able to give you references to speak with. If they don’t, you may want to consider another service.
Are you concerned about getting your teen to their program safely? Assisted admissions can be a very good experience with the right professional.
