Atmosphere Assessment in Residential Treatment

Abstract

The provision of quality services is the primary goal in Residential Treatment facilities. The need to maintain quality requires the recruitment and retention of highly skilled staff. Variables affecting recruitment and retention include salary level, experience and work atmosphere. This project demonstrates one method to increase retention by positively influencing work atmosphere through increased communication, proactive problem solving, "participatory" interaction in management, and consistent effective measurement of program variables.
