The three-story building is bright and airy and provides for a pleasant working environment. From its inception, HCPC was conceived as a model mental health care facility with the goals of providing quality patient care, education of professionals, research into the causes and treatments of mental illnesses and service to the community. HCPC each year delivers mental healthcare services to more than 5,000 patients. We are a short-term facility and provide a multitude of treatment programs to assist in the treatment of severe psychiatric problems, including bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and depression. Patients come to the hospital through several different routes.
Patients range in age from children aged four and up to senior citizens.
They are treated for a number of chronic and persistent mental illnesses, including bipolar disorder, major depression, and schizophrenia. Some of HCPC's patients suffer from various levels of mental retardation or have a substance abuse problem which further complicates their mental illness. Adult care is provided in any of seven treatment units. These units serve adults between the ages of 18 and 50. The units provide a therapeutic living environment for patients during their hospitalization.
