Kings View Behavioral Health

Description

The original facility was built on the Kings River as an inpatient psychiatric hospital and the hospital established a national reputation for excellent care for the mentally ill. In the 1960s and early 1970s outpatient mental health and drug & alcohol services were expanded through the development of community programs. These community programs were established and continue primarily through contracting with small and medium size rural counties in Central and Northern California.

Kings View is one of six mental health providers that are part of the Mennonite Health Services Alliance, a national organization that comprises more than 70 Mennonite-affiliated health and human service organizations. MHS Alliance is the national sponsor of Kings View, appointing the governing board and the CEO. We provide resources to support Kings View as it seeks to be effective in carrying out its mission and faithful to its core values and faith affiliation.

Kings View has demonstrated immense capacity to shape its work in response to ongoing changes in state and federal regulations and reimbursement, dramatic changes in market demographics, and changing structures for delivery of services throughout California. In the last decade, Kings View transitioned from one that was primarily an inpatient model of service to one that is disbursed, providing high quality services to numerous county programs and extending much needed social and psychiatric services to rural communities through tele-psychiatry.

Kings View continues to work at understanding the continually changing business of providing behavioral health care to underserved populations in California. As in the past it is essential that we maintain a keen awareness and a willingness to make adjustments as necessary in order to continue to provide services in accordance with our mission.
