Why you’ll love this position:

The RSM program is one of four long-term treatment programs at Fulton State Hospital and has a 75-bed capacity. RSM is intended to help clients often diagnosed with a primary psychotic disorder (such as schizophrenia or delusional disorders) or major mood disorders. Primary or secondary personality disorders, particularly antisocial personality disorder, are also common to RSM clients. Therapy on RSM focuses on improving insight and management of symptoms of mental illness by rewarding prosocial practices, collaborating on shared goals, and instituting justice opportunities. RSM strives to help clients develop an adaptive, independent, and prosocial approach to functioning. Treatment is rooted in the belief that each person is capable of achieving a life of personal value that also allows for meaningful connections.
