The recent closure of Suncoast Mental Health Center's Treasure Coast offices and Cleveland Clinic's planned exit from natal care in Martin County have raised concerns about the region's mental health and wellbeing. With limited options available, residents are facing a shortage of essential services, including prenatal care and mental health treatment. This shortage can have severe consequences, including increased stress and anxiety. It's essential to address this gap in healthcare services to ensure the community's overall health and wellbeing, particularly in areas like mental health support and natal care.
