Best mental hospital in Northern California to stay at for inpatient treatment. They let you have seconds and thirds on the food and the food is great. Other hospitals won't even give you seconds. Other hospitals don't even let you go outside but maybe once a week or so but here at least once a day. As far as everything else what do people expect from a mental hospital besides coloring group, watching tv, and taking meds and eating three really good meals a day. Plus they always get you a taxi back home. I never had any issue with the staff. I recognized 8 years ago at age 35 that sometimes I need

TERRIBLE, I had a loved one go here and she was completely ridiculed, traumatized and treated with no respect nor rights here. I really wish I could leave zero stars, they completely go against their code of conduct and ho early deserve a lawsuit. No one who works here is qualified and the brutal things that happened to my loved one I wouldnt wish on my enemy. This place needs some justice and I hope that they get what they deserve; this state mental health care system needs heavy heavy reform.

Uneducated, horrible, abusive staff, who condescends their patients and force-feeds medications illegally. Staff makes fun of their patients, targets them for their illnesses, and overall, traumatizes them. No therapy whatsoever. No group therapy and no therapist on site. Less than 30 minutes outside every day. Cleanliness is disgusting - I could not shower there once, because no one would clean the showers. Cruel, belittling, heartless, rude staff, from the social Workers, to the nurses, to the doctor. Keeps families apart by never answering phones. Go somewhere else, please. I suggest Del Amo
