Panel urged $2.9 million hike for Fulton State Hospital
Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee heard a $2.9 million request as part of a $107 million mental health budget for State Hospital No. 1 in Fulton. The request would lift child psychiatry from $709,051 to $1,660,824 and raise staffing in Fulton hospital services from 458 to 483. David Skeer, Kansas City attorney and Mental Health Commission chairman, noted the division faces about four million dollars in cuts and lost 400 key staff, while Dr. George Ulett was on leave for a yearlong Denmark study. Walter Sartorius urged more than $3 million for probation and parole to meet national recommendations, but said success was unlikely.
