| The Steuben County Community Mental Health Center (SCCMHC) provides a full range of outpatient mental health services available to the residents of Steuben County. It is a goal of the Center to assist individuals in managing their lives and in interacting with the community in a constructive and beneficial manner. The Mental Health Center is certified by the New York State Office of Mental Health and operates under the auspices of the Steuben County Community Services Board and the Steuben County Legislature. The Center is administered by the Director of Community Services. The Center operates four offices located in Bath, Corning, Hornell and Wayland. The following programs and services are provided by the Center: Clinic Treatment provides diagnostic evaluation, emergency services (24 hours a day, 7 days a week), psychological testing, case management, individual, group, family, marital, play, and chemo therapy, consultation to community agencies, and community education; Continuing Treatment specializes in rehabilitative day programming for adults with an emphasis on community support services; On-Site Rehabilitation provides outreach services to the geriatric population; the Finger Lakes Parent Network Inc. provides group, individual, and respite care services to seriously emotionally disturbed children and their families (this is a joint effort between the New York State Office of Mental Health, the Elmira Psychiatric Center, Pathways Inc., and SCCMHC); the Family Centered ICM provides intensive case management services to seriously emotionally disturbed children and their families; the Compeer Program, currently under development, will provide trained volunteers to interact with service recipients in a one-to-one friendship relationship. Services are developed and coordinated through a participatory planning process which includes input from service recipients, family members of recipients, and providers of services. Since the Center receives State funding, a plan is submitted each year for State approval. Individuals receiving services are charged a fee scaled in accordance with their ability to pay. The Center accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and third party insurance. |
