Los Angeles Mental Health

Los Angeles Mental HealthDoes anyone know a good mental health facility in Los Angeles?

My mother has a schizoaffective disorder and we need her in a care facility long term. We used to have in an apartment, but she has recently put me out. Any help or suggestions are appreciated ...

if a / s of a disorder, it receives SSI? if she receives SSI, it should also receive Medi-Cal and Medicare possibly depending on its age. many skilled nursing facilities (SNF) will accept psychiatric patients for "custodial care" (they do not need nursing home, just supervision) if they are under Medi-Cal or any other insurance covers custodial care.
there will be a little more difficult for you to "place" as usual it will accept SNF people released from hospital. if she has private insurance, I would call them to see if it covers SNF care placements. if it has Medi-Cal, they cover custody, it is just a matter of finding one that will accept her and that you love. I look around the facilities myself before I tried to get her in. i live in the area of Los Angeles to pomona cannot I talk to all SNF 's in particular. Sure where your at. Usually there SNF located near many hospitals. you can always call your local hospital and ask to speak to a social worker case manager / and to see that local SNF does custody and those around you are nice.
also, your mother is already in the department of county mental health system? they care facilities long term called IMD (Institute for Mental Illness) that precisely the time the house-term psychiatric patients. There are many very good IMD in the county of Los Angeles, three by my hospital called Landmark Medical Center, Olive Vista, and Laurel Park. You must be registered in the County Department of Mental Health system to be considered for placement IMD, but they are the best. the application process can take several months, but once your in the system and accepted, you can go to any county in the IMD. DMH number is1 800 854-7771 let them know that you want to enroll in the program IMD long-term care and they'll devolve. Good luck!
