After my mom's second overdose attempt, she was held in the psychiatric ward at Hollywood Memorial Hospital. Mom was on the first floor, which was “Open Psych.” The second floor was “Closed Psych.” The closed psychiatric ward was just that, closed. It was locked. The patients had to stay in their rooms. It was where the most insane people were. The doctors and nurses told my mom that if she did not do well on the first floor that she would need to go “one floor up.”
