The PRTFs are part of our inpatient residential programs, meaning residents live onsite full-time. Our two PRTF homes are in Little Rock (Pulaski County) and Bono (Craighead County).
Each PRTF serves adolescents ages 12 to 17 in gender-specific units with a length of stay generally four to six months, or longer. Patients who excel in the PRTF may be eligible to return home or step down to a less-intensive treatment setting within Methodist Family Health’s full continuum of care.

Treatments may include one or more of the following, as appropriate:
