The number admitted also soared, from 13,903 in 2009 to 26,811 in 2014. That same year, California’s state health planning and development department recorded acute-care hospital stays of at least a month for 60 cases of patients with an autism diagnosis. The longest were 211 and 333 days. The problem parallels the issue known as psychiatric boarding, which has been an increasing concern in recent years for a range of mental illnesses.
