Triumph Youth Services operates a small residential program allowing quality time for the students’ individual needs. All of the facilities are self-sufficient with separate staff, kitchens, and living areas but are all close in proximity providing an intimate campus setting. A minimum ratio of one direct care staff to every four students is upheld. This direct care staff ratio does not include administration, clinicians, office staff and teachers who are also present to supervise and assist where needed.
We maintain a ratio of one direct care staff to every four students in addition to our administrators, therapists, teachers, and other support staff. Staff ratio and continual support creates a personalized treatment approach for the students in our program.
Each student chooses an advocate, “staff mentor,” who will work closely with the student’s therapist and coordinator. The mentor provides support and encouragement to the youth. Quality time can be spent with students during approved off campus outings and activities as the student progresses through the program.
Triumph Youth Services ensures that all employees receive a thorough federal background check through the state of Utah. Each employee receives pre-training and continual updated training, intensive program training as well as professional safety training such as CPR/First Aid, Positive Control Systems, and Food Handler Safety. Prospective staff are screened through the interviewing process to avoid those that are more prone to engage in power struggles with the students, or demean them. We seek out staff who have the characteristics and abilities to be great role models, are caring, and have clear professional boundaries.
