Connecticut Valley Hospital is comprised of three divisions: general psychiatry; addiction services; and Whiting forensic services. Patients receiving the services from the Whiting forensic division may reside in the Whiting maximum security building, the Dutcher medium security building or the restoration to competency unit located in Battell Hall. Although the Whiting Forensic Division receives the majority of its admissions by order of a criminal court, Whiting is a hospital administered by DMHAS and is therefore obligated to provide active and effective treatment. It is not a correctional facility. <ref>http://www.clrp.org/legal-issues-we-handle/psychiatric-inpatient-hospital-issues/whiting-forensic-division/</ref> | Connecticut Valley Hospital is comprised of three divisions: general psychiatry; addiction services; and Whiting forensic services.
