   The reason is, for this behavioral treatment program to be effective, we require the resident to be able to participate in their care planning and treatment.
2. A recent history of drug or alcohol abuse
   Many of our successful and stable residents who are benefitting from Heritage Lane have histories of drug and or alcohol abuse. Residents who are at high risk of relapse creates an unsafe peer structure
3. Inability to recognize danger or call for help
   This criterion has a broad objective and ensures the residents seeking to move into Heritage Lane have a basic cognition level that is foundational for the program to be successful for them.
