DSM-5 Level Care

QCP offers care to people that have been diagnosed with depression, bipolar, and or other emotional concerns. 

These impairments are often caused by a neurodevelopmental disorder, such as cerebral palsy or an autism spectrum disorder, that appears early in life and limits a person’s ability to learn, communicate, or perform one or more activities of daily life.

Characteristics of Emotional Disturbance:

• Hyperactivity (short attention span, impulsiveness).
• Aggression or self-injurious behavior (acting out, fighting).
• Withdrawal (not interacting socially with others, excessive fear or anxiety).
• Immaturity (inappropriate crying, temper tantrums, poor coping skills).

We are trained to provide quality services for DSM5 Level Care

Safety is always the top priority. Our team members are trained to approach every situation with a calm and level head. This allows us to maintain control of the situation and respond in the best way possible. We also respond to how our patients react to make sure they feel safe..

We actively listen, not just react, because we are aware of the importance related to feeling safe and heard, especially in their own homes. We acknowledge how they’re feeling and find out how they prefer to be supported emotionally. Some people prefer a more upbeat approach, while others may want you to just be there and listen.
