History
editNDI was announced in 2015 as the successor to the State's aging Larue D. Carter Memorial Hospital.[3] Compared to Larue, NDI has a larger staff (500 versus 350), more beds for pediatric patients (65 versus 42), and significantly more security cameras.[1][4] Completed at a cost of $118 million, NDI is designed to serve 1,500 patients annually for acute and chronic mental illness, chronic addictions, adolescent autism spectrum disorders, traumatic brain injuries, and neuro-degenerative illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease.[1][4]
