**Outside agencies providing referrals can call to check our bed availability at any time but should speak to an admissions clinician for the most up to date, accurate data.**
Once the preliminary information is gathered and cross-referenced an admissions clinician will be in touch with the client as soon as the department reviews the client data. An assessment date will be provided as well as the option for transportation arrangements.
If a client does not plan to use Focus, please call an admissions clinician and inform us of the decision.
