The unit I was on was open. The doors were not capable of being locked. Movement was restricted until 4:30 pm. This was a problem if you wanted to get a decent cup of coffee in the morning. There was a nursing station at the entrance and a conspicuous black and yellow striped line on the floor that patients were not allowed to cross. Patients, who were allowed to wear their street clothes usually, walked off the unit when staff were not looking or around 10 am when the team held their daily meetings. Patients in blue gowns had a harder time.
