The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre (also known as Royal Ottawa Hospital, Royal Hospital or ROH) is a 207-bed mental health facility located in Ottawa, Canada which began operation in 1961. It acts as a teaching hospital for the University of Ottawa.
The in-patient portion of the hospital is composed of 9 units: Geriatrics (North and South), Schizophrenia, Mood and Anxiety, Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders. Intensive Assessment, Youth, Forensic Assessment and Forensic Rehabilitation. Treating clients in and out of the community. The ROHCG conforms to new age psychiatry practices, using both new methods of establishing staff-client relationships and discarding those that have become obsolete.

It should derive from an understanding of the developing child, of his physical and mental equipment at any given stage, and, therefore, his readiness at any given stage to adapt, to learn, to regulate his behavior according to parental expectations.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“Mens sana in men’s sauna, in the flush
Of health and toilets, private and corporal glee,”
—Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)
“To make our idea of morality centre on forbidden acts is to defile the imagination and to introduce into our judgments of our fellow-men a secret element of gusto.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
