St Joseph’s Health Care is committed to a recovery model of care for its mental health patients. The care providers assist patients in their personal journeys, moving them beyond the stigma and limitations of illness, and towards recovery. For its new building, St Joseph’s was intent on creating a healing facility that supported its care model in its philosophical realization, as well as the physical environment.
Winner of the 2014 International Mental Health Design, this healing environment for forensic mental health promotes patient recovery and was delivered under a P3 model.
