Residential Treatment Centers (RTCs) are general residential operations that provide treatment services to children with emotional disorders. RTCs, by definition, must always comply with the rules of this chapter as if 100% of the children in their care require treatment services for emotional disorders. This includes, but is not limited to, services to individual children, personnel requirements, and child/caregiver ratio requirements.
