Seven months after agreeing to move to a different location, the owners of a mental health facility are facing protests from a collection of local residents upset with the new location.
According to information provided by facility-owner Springstone, the facility, Saguaro Springs, would provide services for people with mental issues — depression and anxiety are specialties — and people with drug and alcohol dependency. The $14 million hospital would have 72 beds to house its patients, who spokesperson Rosemary Plorin wrote in an email stay for an average of seven days.
