Residential Treatment Program
The residential treatment program at the College Hill Campus of Cincinnati Children’s Hospital
Medical Center is a place where youth who need psychiatric care over extended periods of time
can receive therapeutic treatment. The program helps children and adolescents make healthy
decisions and express their emotions through appropriate communication. The residential
treatment program is for both males and females, ages 9to 18. Length of stay is between one to
12 months with the average length of stay around 120 days. The psychiatry treatment staff
utilizes an interactive collaborative approach and continually focuses on Family-Centered Care.
The trained / certified staff partners with youth and families in order to:
• Teach new thinking and behavioral skills to improve overall functioning abilities
• Improve parent / guardian abilities to manage difficult behaviors and improve
family satisfaction

Youth are under constant supervision in a secure, safe environment. Cincinnati Children’s College
Hill Campus is located on 25 acres of peaceful, wooded land in a Cincinnati suburb called College
Hill. The residential treatment program offers a living area with a home-like atmosphere that
includes a kitchen on each unit, bedrooms and private baths. An educational wing and indoor
and outdoor recreation areas are also provided. The College Hill Campus is under constant CCTV
monitoring. It is important to understand that all persons, entering and exiting are videotaped.
Program Focus
The College Hill Campus residential treatment program helps children and adolescents express
their emotions through appropriate communication and behaviors to enable them to make
healthy, positive decisions. Treatment is geared toward helping the youth develop self awareness
and self-esteem and ultimately increasing their ability to be an active, productive member in their
community. The focus of the program is essential behavioral treatment, intense family
involvement, educational and vocational rehabilitation, milieu and experiential therapy and
community re-entry services.
