Psychiatric Quality Measures (IPFQR)
Connecticut Mental Health Center is a psychiatric facility evaluated under the CMS Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting (IPFQR) program. Headline measures cover restraint and seclusion use, screening for antipsychotic-related metabolic side effects, substance-use and tobacco treatment, care transitions, follow-up after discharge, and readmissions.
Physical Restraint Use 0.1 hours per 1,000 patient-hours
HBIPS-2 — hours of physical restraint use per 1,000 patient-hours. Lower is better; restraints carry physical and psychological risks.
Seclusion Use 0.5 hours per 1,000 patient-hours
HBIPS-3 — hours of seclusion per 1,000 patient-hours. Lower is better; seclusion is used only when no other intervention works.
Metabolic Screening (SMD) 81.0 %
SMD — % of patients on antipsychotics screened for metabolic side effects (BMI, blood glucose, cholesterol). Antipsychotics raise metabolic-syndrome risk; screening catches it early.
Transition Record Completed 0.0 %
TR-1 — % of discharges with a completed transition record including medications, follow-up plan, and crisis instructions.

About this data
Quality and ratings data are sourced from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare program. Star ratings are CMS's own calculation; CareRanks does not modify or re-weight them. Facility-level details (address, beds, ownership, teaching status) come from CMS provider files and the CMS Provider of Services file.
Pricing data, where shown, is drawn from the hospital's own Machine-Readable File (MRF) published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. See our methodology for the full update cadence and limitations.
