Inpatient Services Questionnaire for Direct Care Staff
The Pennsylvania Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (OMHSAS) has begun the process of reviewing and updating the regulations (state requirements) for the inpatient level of care. This includes services provided in private psychiatric hospitals, psychiatric units in a general hospital, residential treatment facilities for adults (RTF-As), psychiatric residential treatment facilities for youth under 22 (PRTFs) and extended acute care facilities (EACs).
In our initial stakeholder groups there was a desire to hear the thoughts and opinions of individuals directly involved in these services who do not regularly have the opportunity to participate in statewide planning meetings. As a result of those conversations we have created a number of surveys to ask different groups of people to provide information to the statewide workgroups. There are surveys for the following groups: Nursing staff, clinical staff, direct care staff and individuals who have received, or are receiving inpatient services.
The following survey is for direct care staff currently working in a private psychiatric hospitals, psychiatric units in a general hospital, RTF-As, PRTFs and EACs.
