Some patients cannot or will not make the decision to seek treatment for themselves. California State law seeks to protect these individuals by allowing for emergency involuntary evaluation and treatment.

We provide​ psychiatric emergency services for all ages. Services include evaluation, crisis intervention, and referrals for psychiatric hospitalization as needed. Emergency Treatment Services (ETS) specializes in evaluating and treating mental illness and emotional crisis. Patients who come to ETS may receive treatment and be discharged to return home with medication and referrals to other mental health facilities. Some patients may be admitted for further treatment to the Inpatient Treatment Facility.
