About

Bayview Behavioral Health Hospital in Chula Vista operates a 64-bed psychiatric inpatient facility at 330 Moss Street under the Paradise Valley Hospital campus within the Prime Healthcare system. The hospital provides emergency psychiatric stabilization, and discharge medication plans frequently coordinate with community dispensaries such as Chula Vista Pharmacy for outpatient psychotropic continuity. Medicare provider ID 050024 and NPI 1194898486 cover inpatient services, partial hospitalization, outpatient programming, and a county-contracted crisis stabilization unit funded by the San Diego County behavioral health system. Treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and electroconvulsive therapy, with step-down transitions connecting patients to post-acute facilities such as South Bay Post Acute Care. ECT at this campus uses brief-pulse electrical stimulation under general anesthesia with EEG seizure monitoring, targeting treatment-resistant major depression and catatonia through bilateral or right unilateral electrode placements calibrated to individual seizure thresholds.
