The Salvation Army’s Anti-Human Trafficking emergency response workers will transport eligible survivors directly from the situation to the residential home. In contrast, referral sources will provide transportation to The Salvation Army East Main office or The Well Drop In Center. Once at the office, the victim/s will meet with an assigned case/intake worker who will transport persons to residential facility.

Willingness to change (preparation stage) – Prochaska and DiClemente (See Appendix A
Prior to transport to the Hanbury House, the assigned case manager will access the participant’s willingness to change. In order to be eligible for residential treatment, participants must be in the preparation stage, which states that the individual has some experience with change and are trying to change and are planning to act within one month.
Mental Health or Substance Abuse Issue as evidenced by SOQIC or Diagnostic Assessment (See Appendix B)
If the individual has not had a mental health assessment completed in the last year, Salvation Army staff will complete the SOQIC. The SOQIC is a standardized integrated medical records forms toolset that covers the entire treatment process from demographic information to transfer/discharge, including assessment, treatment planning and progress notes. The forms accommodate the various certification, national accreditation & Medicare/Medicaid compliance requirements, as well as all ODMH and ODADAS rules and standards.
A Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) score of at least 40 or scores between 31-39 with recommendation from second opinion.
The GAF is a numeric scale (0 through 100) used by mental health clinicians and physicians to rate subjectively the social, occupational, and psychological functioning of adults, e.g., how well or adaptively one is meeting various problems-in-living. This is to protect the individual, the other residents and the staff at Hanbury House. Persons with a GAF score below 40 experience impairment in several areas (social, occupational, and psychological).
Intake
Intake workers will complete SOQIC with all incoming residents. If the score on SOQIC reveals risk of lethality, the worker will complete a suicide assessment and a no suicide contract. If necessary, the worker will make a referral to NetCare or another mental health crisis service provider. If the person has a GAF score 30 or below, the individual will be referred to an in-patient mental health institution. If the GAF score is between 40-31, the individual will be referred to another MH service provider for a second opinion prior to admittance into the program.
If necessary, individuals will be referred to detoxification services for evaluation, stabilization and fostering readiness and entry into treatment.
Through motivational interviewing, potential residents will be assessed to determine willingness to change using the Prochaska and DiClemente model.
If needed, persons will be provided a foreign language interpreter.
Future residents must complete mandatory resident orientation.

The Case Manager will partner with law enforcement throughout the investigation to enhance the victim’s capacity to cooperate with law enforcement and serve as a credible witness.
