Information for Schools / Residential Treatment Centers
The SMART Online Achievement System is a Web-based program designed to help Residential Treatment Centers track:
- Behaviors
- Goals
- Levels
- Privileges
The program equips children and adolescents with the tools necessary to develop into responsible and independent young adults. The paper version of the SMART program has been used with success on thousands of clients in the last ten years at the Tarnow Center for Self-Management.
The automated SMART Online Achievement System makes it even easier to create a customized positive reinforcement framework that’s not only simple to use, but also provides a fun and rewarding way for children and adolescents to exhibit positive behavior. With the SMART System, you can:
- Choose weekly behavioral goals using our extensive sample list – or add your own
- Track daily points earned in a user-friendly interface
- Select rewards and privileges that your children would like to earn
- Provide a dashboard for therapists, counselors, and teachers, enabling a truly collaborative treatment process
- And much, much more…
Since the program is Web-based, parents can easily access their child’s account online, allowing them to track progress and view feedback at any time through their own computer connection. The SMART Online Achievement System is also designed for simple, efficient integration and coordination with physicians, therapists, consultants, and teachers.
Why is the SMART System a good solution for Residential Treatment Centers?
- Customizable. The SMART Online Achievement System can be fully customized for residential treatment centers. We will work closely with you and your staff to ensure that the program is a perfect fit for your center.
- Transferable. Students learn how to use the system while enrolled in the residential treatment center; when they return home, they will still be able to use the program. Parents can be trained using our online tutorial, so the system can be seamlessly transferred for home use.
- Effective for a variety of conditions. The SMART Online Achievement System has been proven effective in children and adolescents who are affected by:
- Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder
- Learning disorders
- Oppositional defiant disorder
- Eating disorders
- Self-management issues
- Medication management difficulties
- Anger management problems
- Strained familial relationships
- Behavioral problems
- Classroom difficulties
- Low self-esteem
The SMART Online Achievement System is also a great way to track tasks assigned to students enrolled in residential treatment centers. Staff members can use the online interface to easily indicate whether a student has completed a chore or not, and students will be able to view their progress and assigned tasks with just a few clicks. The SMART System operates on a level system, so it’s an ideal complement to the stage systems that many residential treatment centers operate under today.
