12 Steps for Clitheroe Directors


1) Use consistent and ethical standards for admission. A whole website could be made on that. 

2) When someone is banned, tell them they are banned. It's crooked to tell a person to keep calling, if they are banned. Shouldn't they be told that they are banned? And why? And don't ban people because you "don't like them". 


3) When you expel a client from treatment, let there be a credible reason.If the client doesn't understand why they are being expelled, explain it until they do. If a reasonable person questions your decision, don't use your authority to negate their reasoning. Have a third party look at the situation. 


4) Don't make up charges against clients and staff you dislike. But if you do... don't put it on paper. If you put it on paper... make sure the person can't prove you made it up. If they can prove you made it up, you're fucked. Taco Bell is hiring. 


5) Take an Ethics class at U.A.A.                                                                                                                                          BOSS?


6) If your success rates are abysmal, try to improve them. Banning any mention of alternative therapies, like addiction meds, in a treatment center is unethical. 


7) Don't mess with medical paper.If you feel it is necessary to falsify or "lose" a med sheet or chart page, consult an attorney first. Maybe the 'crime' you are hiding is not really that serious.If it is, you can have a filing cabinet fire every six months or so. 


8) Be willing to learn from your employees.If you were made a supervisor because you like paper, and you smile a lot. Don't aggravate people who like to work.  


9) Provide training that is relevant. Stop giving phony diplomas for phony training. If you need to nurture someone, adopt an orphan. 


10) Don't use your authority to cover your mistakes.It didn't work too well here. 


11) Don't be so fucking lazy.


12) Don't call in sick once a week. It sets a bad example.It gets old when the supervisors call in sick every week.I never called in sick, so you couldn't miss me. See how that works?
