I was pleasantly surprised at the County's facility for behavior health, I had been expecting something far worse. I guess that's the trick: set your expectations very low and you'll never be disappointed.
Things you should know: visiting hours are from 2 pm - 7 pm. I've been told 1:00 pm but that's not true, it's 2. You can bring in snacks, drinks and clothing. No strings, laces, plastic bags or sharp objects. The security guard takes you ID, asks you to walk through a metal detector and then gives you a locker for your personal items. It's pretty painless but if you carry a gun, it's good to know which places have a metal detector.
The nurses inside seem friendly and engaging towards the patients. The patients appear to have plenty of activities to do. I'm told that the food is good and chorizo, eggs, potatoes and tortillas are on the breakfast menu regularly.
