Yup, pretty much. I was at one and remember my therapist showing me the papers.

It's not a new phenomenon either - especially in Utah.
I did a bit of time in one in SLC back in the 80's. It was called the 'Western Institute for Neuropsychology' - or 'WIN' back then.
Every few years places like this get busted for doing heinous things to teens - nothing really happens, then the news cycle moves on.

I got sent to Cross Creek Manor which was just down the street from the one in this article in 95. Luckily, there wasn't much in the way of physical abuse while I was there. That started a few years after and it finally got itself shut down a few years ago.
What got me was the day center we got sent to literally chained us in the facility. Someone had to actually unlock the paddle locks to let us out.
