Lakeview Health Service's Residential Programs Provide a Variety of Housing Options

• For Individuals over the age of 18 and recovering from mental illness
• For individuals in emotional crisis and in need of short-stay residence
• For community members who desire safe and affordable housing

By taking a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach, our mental health residential housing programs focus on safety, trust, individuality, and personal choice which assist residents in developing the skills necessary to successfully live with greater independence. Residents in our programs receive support around self-advocacy, collaborative decision making and healthy relationships, enabling them to work toward their goals from a person-centered perspective. 

Our housing programs are certified by the New York State Office of Mental Health.

Prospect House

Residential Crisis Support Program

Prospect House is designed to assist those who are in crisis or experiencing emotional distress while avoiding or reducing hospitalization.

Alternative to Hospitalization   The program offers 24 hour supports for the stabilization of psychiatric symptoms with the dual goal of averting hospitalization in a comfortable, home-like environment.

Hospital Step-Down   Prospect House is an ideal place for those who are stepping down from the hospital but still need additional time and support before returning home. Guests take an active role in their recovery and work with staff to establish objectives to work on during their stay and establish linkages to community resources.

Prospect House is located in Canandaigua, NY.

Single Room Occupancy (SRO)

Lakeview’s SRO is a 38 bed program located in Ithaca with on-site support specifically targeted to individuals who have had limited success in other housing environments. Each individual has a private room with a bathroom and kitchenette. The SRO provides meals through its kitchen for those who participate in the meal plan. Program staff provide a range of services that include medication management and daily living skills. This program differs from Lakeview’s other residential options in that it does not fall within the traditional rehabilitation model. For this reason, both staff and residents have the ability to create service plans based on quality of life goals that do not necessarily revolve around transition to more independent living.
