The Vermont Psychiatric Care Hospital is the State of Vermont's primary hospital for involuntary mental health patients. [1] It is located in the town of Berlin, Vermont, in Washington County. With 25 beds, it was opened in 2014 [2] as a replacement for the Vermont State Hospital, which had been closed due to flooding from Tropical Storm Irene. [3]

The hospital was designed and constructed by local firms at a cost of $23 million. [4] [5]
