I was there for five days for Suicide Ideation, and have a new definition of hell on earth. Sent their because there was an overflow at Altru, which I admit I was fine with. Spent about three minutes a day talking to the doctor about medications, and never had any one-on-ones. The only offer was group therapy, and the only subject that we covered was self-esteem. If a simple conversation about self-esteem could have fixed my depression, I wouldn't have been there in the first place. I never talked to a social worker, and when I was trying to clarify the Check Out Process, one of the day nurses told me that she couldn't predict the future. The night staff wasn't bad, and quite a few of the nurses were aware that this wasn't a productive facility, but that didn't make the stay any better. We were allowed into the gym once, but all they had was a trashcan full half-inflated balls. There was the possibility of an outbreak of skin disease on the Friday while I was there, but no one bothered to contact the CDC until Monday when a doctor ordered it.

It wasn't helpful in anyway, and on top of all that they lost one of my favorite t-shirts.

I was personally a patient there. They take you and discharge you without any consideration of follow up care. The Dr. wouldn't even give me a referral. I am asking for help and care and he wouldn't take the time to make a phone call for me. Group therapy is all they offer; no one on one. They treat you like a child and give you puzzles and crayons in your down time. Really? Thanks for all the help...place is a joke.

My sister was sent to this institution for a five day evaluation after presenting to her local emergency room as suicidal and out of control (she's been in the ER several times for the same issue).  After just two days in this facility, she managed to coerce the staff into discharging her back into her life and went home.  She's still suicidal, and will likely end her life soon.  This facility did nothing to help her.  They did not do a proper evaluation, and they released her.  My sister will likely end her life soon, and in part we have this institution and it's substandard care to thank for this.  If you have a loved one who needs emotional or mental care, look elsewhere.  I'd give this place a zero, but that isn't an option.
