Kerrville State Hospital (KSH) is a mental hospital in Kerrville, Texas, operated by health and human services.
The patients of this 202-patient facility, who were judged in state courts as "not guilty by reason of insanity" and/or "incompetent to stand trial," come from throughout the state. The majority were originally patients of North Texas State Hospital Vernon Campus but were moved here because the state determined they needed a longer stay in mental healthcare, while also not being obviously harmful to others.[1]
Kerrville State Hospital is fenced, and it does not have guards carrying weapons.[2]
