Community Residences
Our three Community Residences offer group living and 24-hour-a-day supervised care to help prepare 34 adults diagnosed with mental illness for independent living. These homes are licensed by the New York State Office of Mental Health.
Our commitment to our participants includes efforts toward enhancing the daily functioning by providing an array of rehabilitative and supportive services. Such services may focus upon intensive goal oriented intervention to improve independence. These restorative services are provided by qualified mental health staff.
Mercy Haven staff also works closely with other medical professionals to ensure the coordination of care for each of residents. Together, these services help residents learn the life skills necessary to move on to a more independent living environment, such as supportive housing.
Our work here helps our residents learn the skills to live independently. Even when I’ve gone home feeling really tired after a long day, I sit back and think how satisfied I am because I know we really help people.
