Restpadd

Organization Description

Restpadd Psychiatric Health Facility (inpatient) offers services to adults, 18 years and older. At Restpadd, we focus on patient’s strengths as we individualize their treatment plans. We promote active family involvement and effective collaboration with their caregivers and support system. Our goal is to return our patients back to the community as quickly as clinically appropriate.

Restpadd is a 16 bed acute care psychiatric inpatient treatment facility licensed by the State of California Department of Health Care Services. Admission is based on the medical necessity of patients who are unable to maintain and safely function at home or in the community. Restpadd provides multi-disciplinary evaluation, treatment, rapid stabilization, and coordinated discharge planning that encourages wellness and recovery.

Our physicians, nurses, allied staff and other professionals have many decades of experience in the field. We strongly believe excellent clinical care can be patient-centered and family friendly
