Just don’t go here it’s as simple as that. This is a facility where you check in and all they care about is making money and drugging you up. The techs are assholes and they treat you like your a child/animal. I didn’t care for any of the nurses, my doc was alright he did get my meds straight after being stuck there for an entire week.. due to the fact I have tricare and the facility knew tricare would pay for me to stay there that long. I was told I would be there for 72 hours while I came off 25 mg of Zoloft since my husband was off training and I was alone at home. It was a bad experience the ONLY benefit was meeting some friends that I will always have. A man in there had a seizure and the nurses didn’t do anything just let him “take a nap” no doctor ever came to check on him the nurse took his vitals like once it was A JOKE. I sat by his room with my friend to make sure he was okay it was the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. If you have to come here get in get your meds straight and get out. You’re not gonna get your long term care here. Unless sitting around for 16 hours a day staring at a tv and coloring is what you’d consider as care giving. One last thing I came back after I was released to give my friend a pack of cigarettes he never received them so it’s safe to say that the staff pocketed the cigarettes so if you plan to bring family members things... don’t.
If I could score less than a 1, I would. They do not contact parent on child’s history or involve them. They do not council you child on problems. The doctor assigned to your child doesn’t see your child til 4th day there. They allow male and female teens together, where some are “making out”, then “reprimand” the kids, and “counciled on the situation” the child that witnessed it, that told her parent. They allow the male and females to write all over each other with markers. No correct supervision or psychological help of therapy given for the kids problem. They don’t even have Feminine products to give your daughter when time. There is no professional structure. The social workers didn’t contact parent til 5th day, after mother had been calling for 2 days. They take a 3 day PEC, and CEC your child for up to 15 days, to make money, when they could be getting real counseling and care in the world, without missing there school, church and family. It is a joke, that our kids are paying the price for. They don’t care about the child or there parents thoughts or concerns. Dr. never once speaks to parent, and speak to child at 9pm at night on 4th day only. Then force her to be locked up for up to 15 days. More harm than good is done at this place.
This place is utterly disgusting. I was raped by some tech Named Guy. I was there for 3 days and still wanted to die. I was denied a phone call. All that happened was the nurses would sit on their asses all day and watch us color. I'm still not better..but you can find me more likely in hell; which is way better than this place.
I had a great experience, most of the staff is there for the better good of the patient. I highly recommend sending a friend or family member here for psychiatric evaluation and or help.
DO NOT GO HERE! ABUSE AND NEGLECT! I had went as a teen. We were grouped with the small children from age 5-6 to age 17. I was restrained and beaten and ended up with a black eye and busted blood vessels in my eye. I tried calling the patient advocate line but they were all "out of order" or "wrong number" This was over the weekend and on Monday the nurse who cared freaked out and offered an ice pack and personally bitched to patient advocate to come talk to me. Nothing was done.
