You should not have to live this way. I know you feel stuck. But this may be money very well spent.[/quote]

We are on Medicaid and there aren't any RTFs that will take him without a psychiatrist saying he must go.[/quote]

Sheppard Pratt may have a program. They have a walk in assessment centers in Timonium and Glen Burnie, if he will go with you. Document the aggression.[/quote]
