About the work unit:
The CDHS Office of Civil and Forensic Mental Healths Transitional Living Homes Program was created to increase bed capacity for persons in need of residential behavioral health treatment. House Bill (HB) 22-1303 has authorized new beds to be used for persons needing residential services at a less restrictive level of care and to reduce and eliminate the backlog of such persons in more restrictive settings. HB 22-1303 directs the department of human services (department) and the department of health care and policy financing to create develop or contract to add at least 125 additional beds at mental health residential treatment facilities (treatment facilities) throughout the state for adults in need of ongoing supportive services. The bill also requires that the department renovate a building at the mental health hospital at Fort Logan to create at least 16 additional civil beds for such persons. These beds serve as a step-down option from inpatient care and as a step up when deemed medically necessary and lower level of care settings can no longer adequately and safely provide effective care.
