Opengate
offers a tri-modal approach to the care of people with
developmental disabilities. This consists of pharmacological,
behavioral, and psychotherapeutic analyses. The program
for each person served is created and reviewed by an interdisciplinary
team composed of our medical director, behavioral analyst,
psychologist, social worker, qualified mental health professional,
speech therapist, nurse and dietitian. Each program is
periodically reviewed to assess effectiveness. Opengate
is widely known for accepting persons with dual-diagnoses
requiring special interventions.
Opengate
incorporates positive approaches to behavioral change.
Staff members focus and instruct persons served on specific
pro-social behaviors, such as self-control, stress management,
social skills, language and communication, academic
studies, self-protection, relationship training, pre-vocational
training and recreation.
