Standing at one end of the University of Kansas Health System’s Strawberry Hill Behavioral Health Hospital’s dynamic atrium, it’s possible to forget you’re even standing in a health care environment at all. There are living green walls, beautiful plants and shrubbery, boundless natural light, stunning views of the nearby skyline and patients are just footsteps away from spaces for music, art therapy, fitness and more.
The Strawberry Hill Behavioral Health Hospital is one of several cutting-edge mental and behavioral health care facilities boldly reshaping its typology. While historical approaches to mental health hospitals often isolated these facilities away from town centers and behind fences, today’s facilities are focused on community integration, access to nature, shared-use resources, natural light, music, public art, positive patient and staff experiences and more.
