About this facility

As part of the continuum of mental health services established by the Florida Mental Health Act (Baker Act), the Hospital serves persons 18 years and older who have exhausted the less restrictive available alternatives in the communities. Persons may be either voluntary admissions or admitted involuntarily by means of judicial order. Individuals are also transferred to the Civil Treatment units from the Forensic programs in order to conform with the legal imperative of providing treatment in the least restrictive setting without endangering the individual or others. Every person admitted to the Forensic Program is committed by the courts and may come from any county in the State. All forensic residents have been charged with crimes and may be Incompetent to Proceed, or Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity.
