A Whole Lot of Crazy

Seldom in my job do we not have a place to send someone for mental health issues but tonight everyone is full in the Bay Area. These are rough estimates but think about this...

Community Hospital Psych = 46
Springbrook Hospital = ~60
Harbor Pasco = 50
Harbor Hernando = 50
FL Hospital Zephyrhills = 25
Morton Plant = 25
St.Anthonys = 35
St.Josephs = 40
Suncoast = 35
PEHMS = 60

All full. Thats approximately 420 psychiatric locked down beds available in the Bay Area and every last bed is full. Few of whom will stay more than 10 days max. Might make you look at the guy behind you at the store just a bit different huh?
