In patients' words
"I was immediately treated with kindness and compassion. All the nurses and staff are AMAZING! I spent 6 days here and it truly helped get me back on my feet."
— Find Mental Health Facilities Review"It is my opinion the hospital is a business first and will keep the people with insurance while throwing the ones without, out early... There is no therapy, the group therapy is an absolute joke."
— Find Rehab Centers Review"As family, we were given no information for days, given multiple different 'release' days and 'ill call by 10 am' with no return phone calls."
