  • A Piece of Mind: the Fate of the State-Funded Asylum of The
    A PIECE OF MIND: THE FATE OF THE STATE-FUNDED ASYLUM OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY by BRYAN LEE HARDMAN (Under the Direction of JOHN C. WATERS) ABSTRACT This thesis tries to give examples of state-funded asylums of the nineteenth century. By showing the various architectural styles which represent styles of that period, the creation of an organization is needed to preserve and educate the public of the importance of these buildings and other medical facilities within the context of mental health treatments of that time.

  • The Realignment of the Department of Mental Health's Inpatient Beds
    The Department of Mental Health Overview of DMH As the State Mental Health Authority, DMH assures and provides access to services and supports that are person-centered and recovery-focused to meet the behavioral health needs of individuals of all ages, enabling them to live, work and fully participate as valuable, contributing members of our communities. With a statewide organizational structure, DMH operates three Area and 27 Site Offices, as well as state-operated hospitals and community mental health centers. This network provides services to approximately 21,000 individuals with severe and persistent mental illness across the Commonwealth, including children and adolescents with serious emotional disturbance and their families through a continuum of care. While some (approximately 10%) of these individuals will require inpatient services at any given time during the year, over 90% receive all or most of their services in the community. The Department’s continuum of care for adults and adolescents includes the following: • The Department’s Community Services provide support to 21,000 individuals per year. Services include: o Community-Based Flexible Supports (CBFS) programs o Emergency Services Programs (ESP) o Assertive Community Treatment Programs (PACT) o Clubhouses o Case Management Services o Crisis Stabilization Services o Respite Services o Homeless Outreach Team Programs o Outpatient Treatment & Medication Management Services o Mental Health Courts o Partial Hospitalization Programs • The Statewide Inpatient System consists of various components, largely in the private sector with some state-operated services. o Acute inpatient psychiatric care provides short-term, intensive diagnostic, evaluation, treatment and stabilization services to individuals experiencing an acute psychiatric episode.

  • Introduction to Non-Acute Hospital Profiles
    INTRODUCTION TO NON-ACUTE HOSPITAL PROFILES Non-acute hospitals in Massachusetts are typically identified as psychiatric, rehabilitation, and chronic care facilities. CHIA has defined non-acute hospitals in this publication using the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) and Department of Mental Health (DMH) license criteria. When presenting trends for utilization, costs, and financial performance, CHIA has provided baseline data for each hospital’s cohort as a point of comparison. Specialty non-acute hospitals are not considered a cohort; however, individual specialty non-acute hospital profiles are available. Psychiatric hospitals are licensed by DMH for psychiatric services and by DPH for substance abuse services. Psychiatric Hospital Cohort ............................................................................................................................................................................... page B1 Arbour Hospital Southcoast Behavioral Hospital Arbour-Fuller Hospital Taravista Behavioral Health Arbour-HRI Hospital Walden Behavioral Care Bournewood Hospital Westborough Behavioral HeathCare Hospital High Point Hospital Westwood Lodge McLean Hospital Whittier Pavilion Rehabilitation hospitals provide intensive post-acute rehabilitation services, such as physical, occupational, and speech therapy services. For Medicare payment purposes, the federal government classifies hospitals as rehabilitation hospitals if they provide more than 60% of their inpatient services to patients with one or more of 13 diagnoses

Statisticians use confidence intervals to account for this uncertainty. A confidence interval is a numeric range around the estimate represented by the hospital’s measure rate, calculated to provide a specified level of confidence that the interval includes the true underlying performance of the hospital.
