**2. Developing Discharge Plans**:Based on the assessment, the psych RN will work with ESU MDs, the child and their family to develop a plan that addresses the child's mental health needs while the LVN continues to meet the needs of the youth and support the youth with the discharge plan. This discharge plan may also be coordinating a transfer to an inpatient bed for higher level treatment
