Summary of Request:
Restpadd Health Corp. is a 16-bed acute care psychiatric inpatient treatment facility located in Red Bluff, California licensed by the State of California Department of Health Care Services. Restpadd Health Corp treats both adults 18 and older, and adolescents ages 13-17, and is designed as a 2-unit facility to prevent intermingling between the two age groups. Admission to Restpadd Health Corp is based on the medical necessity of patients who are unable to maintain and safely function at home or in the community. At the facility, Restpadd Health Corp provides multi-disciplinary evaluation, treatment, rapid stabilization, and coordinated discharge planning that encourages wellness and recovery of individuals, with a goal to send those individuals back to their respective community.
Currently, there are no local facilities in Mendocino County that are able to provide acute care psychiatric inpatient treatment. As a result, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS) hopes to contract with Restpadd Health Corp through the proposed $500,000 Agreement for inpatient psychiatric hospitalization services to qualified Mendocino County clients. Through the proposed Agreement, BHRS will place qualified mental health clients in Restpadd Health Corp., where they will receive appropriate care including diagnostic assessments, bed spaces, therapeutic and rehabilitation services, and applicable treatment for stabilization and maintenance of mental health conditions, with an overall goal to improve client functioning and successfully discharge or transition them to a lower level of care.
Due to the unexpected nature of need for acute care psychiatric inpatient treatment services, this Agreement was not anticipated. BHRS began processing the Agreement as soon as the need was recognized, and the Agreement is before the Board of Supervisors with a retroactive start date of January 1, 2024.
