PATIENT RIGHTS
This page outlines specific rights and standards of staff behavior afforded to each CCC patient. The policies below are listed because the federal government has specifically mandated that we must "post this [information] prominently in waiting areas, as well as any other locations accessible to clients or potential clients." By posting these policies, we do not imply that these are any patient's only rights in regard to interactions with the CCC.
