DESCHUTES RECOVERY CENTER

Secure and Welcoming for Rehabilitation

Deschutes Recovery Center is a residential mental health facility designed for those transitioning from the State Hospital or other secure facilities. The Center provides a stable living environment for adults who have a mental illness or recovering addicts that are continuing their treatment.

The 24-hour staffed building includes two residential wings with a communal living/dining room and an administration wing for processing, therapy, and doctor offices. Pinnacle held multiple meetings with the administrators and staff to determine their needs and discuss security. Energy-efficient design provided the client with more than $5,000 in Energy Trust of Oregon incentives. Overall, the design balances safety and comfort to aid in recovery.
