Chief Executive
Officer’s Message
In the world of healthcare, the
vast and sometimes staggering dimensions of the physical
health service delivery system often completely eclipse the
area of behavioral health.
South County Mental Health
Center, through its Board of governance, vision and mission
statements, and dedicated staff and volunteers, has worked
hard to educate through example. Our belief is to operate as a
working model of how a community mental health center should
function.
We believe that quality care is only
possible when sound clinical practices are melded with
compassion and sensitivity. The staff at South County Mental
Health Center functions with this concept in mind. Our
continuous quality improvement program and Joint Commission accreditation
are visible symbols to this commitment.
- SCMHC is a not-for-profit charitable corporation
governed by a Board of Directors who are volunteers from the
community.

Florida.
