Does the WPB VA still house in-patient substance abuse patients in the same locked ward as the seriously mentally ill patients? After initial screening and de-tox, are the substance abuse patients still locked up 24/7? Has this VA modernized?

Just confirmed with the substance abuse clinic that it is indeed still the policy, due to the nature of the ward it is required for patients to be restricted to the ward for safety and for continuity of care.
