Établissement public de santé mentale (EPSM) de la Somme is a public psychiatric hospital located on the historic Philippe Pinel site in Dury, adjacent to Amiens in the Hauts-de-France region of France. Established as an asylum in 1884 and built between 1886 and 1891 on 34 hectares, the establishment transitioned to its current EPSM legal status in 2020. It is the sole public hospital exclusively dedicated to psychiatry in the Somme department and operates an integrated care network comprising 213 inpatient beds, 118 day hospital places, 40 specialized medico-social residential places (MAS La Pommeraie), and approximately 50 ambulatory structures including Centres Médico-Psychologiques (CMPs) and six mobile psychiatric teams. It serves 10,591 active patients annually (98% from the Somme department) across adult psychiatry (4 sectors), child and adolescent psychiatry (2 sectors), prison psychiatry (1 sector), and specialized addiction services, with 24/7 psychiatric emergency services co-located with CHU Amiens-Picardie.

The establishment's service portfolio spans emergency psychiatric care, full hospitalization, day hospitals, outpatient clinics, mobile community teams, psychosocial rehabilitation, addiction medicine (SESAME), perinatal psychiatry (Arabesque 0-3 years, PLUME), child and adolescent intensive ambulatory care (CAP), and care for detained persons. The underlying technology stack is centered on the SILLAGE patient management and electronic health records system. EPSM also operates a Qualiopi-certified continuing education center (~1,000 training departures per year, €900K annual training investment) and the IFMS training institute (IFSI and IFAS programs), alongside a clinical research unit affiliated with Université Picardie Jules Verne and the F-GRC Sud regional research entity.

Revenue is derived from public healthcare funding through the French social security system and ARS Hauts-de-France allocations, supplemented by training revenue from regional healthcare institutions (CHU Amiens-Picardie, multiple CHs, EHPADs, DTPJJ). The disclosed operating budget is €71.15 million for the main establishment, with additional €3 million for IFMS and €3.83 million for MAS La Pommeraie, totaling approximately €77.98 million annually. EPSM is a co-founding member of the GHT Somme Littoral Sud and serves as the GHT pilot establishment for addictology and child-adolescent psychiatry care pathways.
