Rainbow Services Center Opens as Osawatomie Sees High Admits
Rainbow Services Inc opened April 7 to connect seriously mentally ill individuals with community based care, curbing cross county demand. Osawatomie State Hospital admissions rose to a ten year high months later, thoughRainbow officials say events are unrelated. The Mental Health Reform Act of 1990 aimed to fund CMHCs to divert patients from state hospitals, a plan that enabled closures like Topeka State Hospital in 1997 but now faces funding shortfalls as uninsured patients surge and support grants plummet from 31 million to 10.9 million yearly.
