The Children’s Mercy + Camber Mental Health Mental Wellness Campus in Olathe, Kansas, was built to address an urgent community need for accessible, trauma-informed behavioral health care.
The 58,438-square-foot, 72-bed psychiatric hospital provides both youth and adult inpatient services within a single state-of-the-art facility. By integrating two care environments, 24 private adult rooms and 48 private youth rooms, the CMC hospital ensures patient safety, privacy, and programming tailored to each population.
A goal of the facility was to create a therapeutic environment that defies the stigma often associated with mental health facilities. Through a collaborative design-build approach, the team was clearly aligned between patient needs, clinical functionality, and construction efficiency.
