Community Mental Health

m n-w f'2n nuth'ri.'Sr-j thrtr
construction begin, according to
Joseph II. 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,
