Mental Health Services history in MN – 9-5-17
10 of the 11 state large Mental Hospitals are now closed.
For the sake of history here is a list that I have discovered.
1. Fergus Falls State Hospital 1890-2004
2. Faribault State School and Hospital
1879-1998
3. Hastings State Hospital 1900-1979
4. Cambridge State Hospital 1925-1997
5. Moose Lake State Hospital 1938-1951 Correctional
site now
6. Braham Riverwood Center – 1966-2014
7. Rochester State Hospital – 1879-1982
8. Willmar State Hospital – 1912-2008
9. Brainerd State Hospital – 1958 – now a Psychiatric Hospital
10. Anoka State Asylum – 1900 – now a Treatment Center
11. St. Peter State Psychiatric Hospital 1866 -
Several smaller treatment centers are available in the metropolitan area and
scattered around the state.
The impression is that in rural areas it depends on
medical clinics and on more informal efforts by churches, clergy and other non profits.
This information may be flawed. From my pastoral work
throughout the state I have learned that alcohol, drugs and disorderly habits
take their toll.
