California Medical Facility - Mission Statement
The California Medical Facility (CMF) was established in 1955 by the Legislature to provide a centrally located medical psychiatric institution for the health care needs of the male felon population in California's prisons. Currently, CMF operates with a 171 million dollar budget and approximately 1853 employees.
CMF houses a general acute care hospital, correctional treatment center (CTC), licensed elderly care unit, in-patient and out-patient psychiatric facilities, a hospice unit for terminally ill inmates, housing and treatment for inmates identified with AIDS/HIV, general population, and other special inmate housing. Additionally, the Department of Mental Health operates a licensed, acute care psychiatric hospital within CMF.
