Description
July 11, 2022 on The Story: Located in East Portland, the Unity Center for Behavioral Health is one of the area's only in-patient hospitals specifically for treating people in mental health crisis. Most patients stay anywhere from a couple weeks to two months or longer, and there is always a new patient waiting to get in.
So why is there never any vacancy? Turns out, there aren't many places for patients to be released once they start to get better.
