The purchase of the Cascade Behavioral Health facility, which closed last month, will prevent the loss of more treatment beds amid a long-running shortage of psychiatric treatment options.

Funding for the $29.9 million purchase comes out of the state Department of Social and Health Service’s current budget, according to agency spokesperson Tyler Hemstreet. “Any additional funding will be through a supplemental funding request” to the Legislature, he wrote in an email.

The facility offered inpatient and outpatient treatment for adults for both mental-health issues and substance-use disorder, according to the website of Acadia Healthcare, the company that owned the hospital. A call seeking comment from the Tennessee-based company wasn’t returned.
