location for behavioral health services in Edgar County.
The building houses Senior Care, as well as the many services of the Human
Resources Center of Clark and Edgar Counties (HRC). Its proximity to Paris
Community Hospital and Paris Clinic enables mental health professionals
to work more closely with physicians and advanced practice providers to
better manage their shared patient base.
