About John Muir Inpatient Behavioral Health
Set in the inner Bay Area, John Muir Health has a hospital with 73 beds for inpatient behavioral health care for children 4+, adolescents, and adults. They admit clients voluntarily and involuntarily, and they provide as much flexibility to roam during the stay as possible. Their psychiatric team works with outside medical providers, and they can optionally bring in a chaplain.
Treatment looks somewhat different for clients 4-11, 12, 13-17, and 18+. For clients under 18, John Muir emphasizes family therapy more and works with schools to ensure clients can continue their studies during treatment.
After clients complete their 5 to 7-day inpatient programs, John Muir can send them to their nearby outpatient treatment center or another treatment center.
John Muir Health's behavioral health program treats clients with anxiety, depression (including post-partum depression), bipolar disorder, ADHD, anger, eating disorders, grief, mood swings, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychosis, self-harm and suicidality, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorders, trauma, co-occurring alcohol and drug addictions, and more.
John Muir can provide a harm-reduction approach to addiction, focused on helping clients with their primary mental health concerns.
John Muir asks clients to bring their driver's license or other form of ID, their insurance card, $5 to $10 in cash, a list of medications, a small bag or carry-on suitcase, alcohol-free toiletries and hair products, and 2 days of clothes.
They ask clients not to bring electronics, credit cards, large sums of money, hair dryers, curling irons, flat irons, products with alcohol, over-the-counter medications, or books. Clients can use their cell phones for retrieving contact numbers and nothing else.
Clients can download MyChart to track their care notes during and after treatment, as well as to pay for care. John Muir posts good-faith estimates through MyChart and allows clients to contest bills that are $400+ more than expected.
