The adult remains central to treatment decisions

A family member may call for general guidance or help the adult prepare. However, the adult seeking care remains central to assessment and treatment decisions. An initial inquiry does not guarantee admission, determine placement, or promise a particular result. It begins an exchange of information about possible outpatient care.
