Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities

Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICF/IID) specialize in providing services to developmentally disabled individuals. Arkansas has two types of ICF/IID’s: “large” facilities are those with more than 15 beds, and “small” facilities are those with fewer than 16 beds.

Among the large ICF/IID’s are the Human Development Centers, which are operated by the State of Arkansas through the Division of Developmental Disabilities Services of the Arkansas Department of Human Services.

Four private ICF/IID’s provide placement only for children: Millcreek of Arkansas, Arkansas Pediatric Facility, Brownwood Life Care Center, and Easter Seals Children’s Rehabilitation Center.

To obtain a list of small ICF/IID’s, call 501-320-6194.

Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF)

A PRTF is a separate, standalone entity providing a range of comprehensive services to treat the psychiatric condition of residents under the age of 21, on an inpatient basis under the direction of a physician. The purpose of such comprehensive services is to improve the resident’s condition or prevent further regression so that the services will no longer be needed.

A PRTF is to provide a less medically intensive program of treatment than a psychiatric hospital or a psychiatric unit of a general hospital.
