In this outpatient care specialty, the Mental Health Center plans to go to the community---rather than having patients come to the center. Long range plans include establishing one day a week service in Washington, Daviess County, and Loogootee in Martin County, Bus service is planned in 1972. Consultation and education will include working with schools, churches, public health officials, welfare, lawyers and law enforcement officials.

This is intended to be a continous effort to educate the public about problems relating to mental health. Partial hospitalization will be provided to meet the needs of individuals who do not need a hospital, but require special help for a short time. "This could mean people with emotional problems who need support during day hours when the husband or wife is working," Burch said. Continuous 24-hour psychiatric service will be maintained in the regular emergency department of Good Samaritan Hospital. This department will serve people in immediate trouble, such as threatened suicides.

The mental health center is now temporarily located in a white frame house on seventh street across from Good Samaritan Hospital. For the last several weeks, Dr. Buehl, Burch and other personnel have been developing programs, creating policies, establishing procedures and interviewing people for staff work. All but the outpatient care portion of the mental health services will be inoperable until the new hospital is completed. State grants are now financing mental health operations.

"I feel that the request was honored," he said. "They owned a clear title, and actually didn't have to give us a The chamber of commerce had taken an option in 1969, during a campaign to purchase a new plot of ground for the company, calling for return ot the property at the depreciated value of improvements. The option was to be exercised when the shoe campany moved into its new plant, but the construction plans were cancelled and the new property returned.
