Mental Health Society Faces Record Retention Dilemma
The Mental Health Society must decide how to handle two decades of patient records amid state ten year rule. Attorney Henry Young notes it may adopt state policy or keep records, with storage custodian and funding unresolved. Records are stored under lock at a local hospital in 50 drawers since mid June to protect confidentiality. A volunteer group is contacting patients from the last six months.

Mental Health Society Plans August Meeting Amid Funding Denial
The Mental Health Society, seeking to continue county services, will meet in mid August to elect new leaders and decide on programs. A June adjournment preceded a push to secure options, including state funding that was denied. President Mary Lou Griffiths said the group may offer seminars and programs while handling patient records under varying state policies. Bruce McCrillis sent 450 letters to potential patients, possibly affecting up to 1000 individuals, offering transfers or sealing records to private doctors, the Linn Center, or the Linn Corp. The transition aims to finish by July 28, with the building contract expiring July 31.
