Central State Hospital (CSH) is a 277 bed Joint Commission accredited psychiatric inpatient facility located in Petersburg, Virginia.

CSH maintains the only maximum-security treatment facility in the state (111 beds).

We believe that treatment should be holistic and focused on the person's individual needs, recognizing that recovery is not linear or the same for every person.
