  • Title: Menninger faces the 21st century.
    Author: Menninger WW.
    Journal: Bull Menninger Clin; 2011; 75(2):106-18. PubMed ID: 21736411.
    Abstract:
    The origin of the Menninger Clinic and Foundation stems from the vision of a family practitioner in a small midwestern community in the early 1900s, implemented with the participation of two sons who became psychiatrists. They articulated their hopes for the future of the institution in 1953, which surfaced only after the passing of the last founder in 1990. At that time, trends in healthcare financing were challenging the capacity of the institution they founded to fulfill its stated mission. This article reviews the origins and mission of Menninger, the challenges prompting a reassessment of operations and the search for an affiliate in order to fulfill the full institutional mission. Also cited are some principles for the future, and the impact on the midwestern community.
