Hurricane Irene reshapes Vermont mental health care system
After Irene flood damage and hospital fires, Vermont rebuilt its mental health system. The Waterbury state hospital closed, a new 25 bed Vermont Psychiatric Care Hospital opened in Berlin, plus 14 beds at Brattleboro Retreat and six at Rutland Regional. The 130 million Waterbury complex rebuild became the era’s largest state project, moving patients to temporary sites during permanent fixes.
