Admissions

Text Box: I am so pleased that you are interested in Miller Home and I hope that we are able to assist you in some way. If you are pursuing placement at Miller Home, please contact me so we can discuss your child and determine if Miller Home is the right choice.

In order to consider a child for placement, I must receive a complete admission application, medical history form, prenatal and developmental history form which you can download or request. Records from any current or past services providers that have been involved with your child are also required. This includes schools, doctors, counselors, hospitals, social workers, psychologist, psychiatrists, other group/residential homes. You may request the records on our own or use the admission release form which you can download or request.

Once all information is received you will be contacted and if at that time it seems Miller Home can meet your child’s needs an interview will be scheduled. All information will be considered when determining if placement at Miller Home is in your child’s best interest.

Other admission requirements will need to be fulfilled once your child has been accepted. These include a physical within the last 90 days, immunization record signed by a physician, birth certificate, social security card, insurance card(s) if applicable, and any court orders regarding your child.

I look forward to working with you and encourage you to contact me at (434) 845-0241 if you have any questions or if I can be of any assistance.

Thank you,

Stormy Wooldridge
Program Director
