TreW-avcn. adnunMra tor of tlx Mental Health Dltt ln of the Hate of Orrcun. Ap plication fur construction will be prucefced late Ihu umnter, and construction approval will tn eiven during the next few month. The tllv Ulon has readl-d a plan for ubmliin to the U. S. Surgeon General that will make It jHifcit! to construct commun Hv mental health center with M'; matching funds. ".New fat-lilt it for mental patient will mostly be commun iiycentercd," J. II. Trelcavcn ays. The mental Health Divis ion has recently been designa ted as the state agency to ad minister the new program which will bring $1,414,015 to Oregon o urine the next two fiscal year. The money will be used by pub lic and non-profit agencies on a 50 50 maichlng basis. The program has many unique features," says I- R. Stevens, the division's director of planning and facilities. "In order to use th efunds com munity must provide five essen tia services; inpatient, outpat lent, emergency', consultation and education, and partial hos pitallzation (day care or night care)." In the past, psychiatric units in general hospitals could be built with Federal Hill-Burton funds. Under the new program U. L. SS l&ii eligible agencies would apply to the Mental liealth Division for funds and would provide all five services. Focus of the community men tal health center construction program Is on continuity of care for the patient In his own com munity. Any patient who re ceives any one of the services Is automatically eligible for any other service, according to, Stevens. The plan being sent to the U. S. Surgeon General by the Mental Health Division divides the state into IS service areas, each having a community men tal health center. The Portland metropolitan area has sufficient population to justify six com munity . mental health centers under the plan, four in Mult nomah county and one each In Washington and Clack a m a s counties. A community mental health center must serve a pop ' ulation area of 75.000 to 200,000 persons, by U. S. Public Health Service regulations. The areas to be served by community menial neaith cen ters include: Area I Clatsop, nuamooK, uncoin counties: Area II Columbia, Multnomah counties; Area III Hood Elver, Wasco, Sherman, Gi 1 1 1 a m, wheeler (plus parts of washing ton's Klickitat and Skamania counties); Area IV Morrow, Umatilla, Union, Wallowa (and Walla Walla.
