Atascadero, Ca

Inpatient psychiatry at Atascadero State Hospital (ASH) in Central Coast of California. Worked as team leader in a multi-disciplinary setting. Psychiatric role was patient evaluation, treatment with psychotropic medications, monitoring medical condition with hospital medical officers; coordinating activities of psychologists in their behavioral treatments; social workers with placement and benefit activities; rehabilitation therapists in their socialization work, and interfaced with the backbone of day to day management - the psychiatric technician staff, PsychTechs. Personally, I treated primarily MDO, mentally disordered offenders, patients with schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder who had committed a crime and were on parole, and placed by the courts at ASH as a special condition of their parole for mental health treatment. Also, treated NGI, not guilty by reason of insanity patient population. (I did not routinely work with prisoners, nor with incompetent to stand trial patients, nor on an Admission unit). Consultation, committee work, and forensic assessments and reports along with some legal testimony were part of my activities there.
