El Camino Health’s Scrivner Center for Mental Health & Addiction Services is a leader in addressing the growing mental health and substance use crisis, backed by a nearly $100 million investment in a state-of-the-art facility. Located within the Taube Pavilion, the 56,000-square-foot center offers a patient-centered environment for adults in acute psychiatric crises, with features prioritizing comfort, privacy and dignity. The health system is also a pioneer in maternal mental health, housing one of only four inpatient perinatal psychiatry units in the U.S. Notable achievements for the program include a 90% response time for psychiatric consultation encounters in the emergency department and a 73.8% average reduction in postnatal depression scores. The department has earned recognition for its high-quality care, including being highlighted by the California surgeon general for its women’s specialty unit and for its innovative “After-School Program Interventions and Resiliency Education” program for youth.
