This place has the worst staff I have ever seen. They will straight out lie to you even in your face. Its1am on January 10th. I am worried about a friend, that I took there, the did a evaluation on her and shipped her somewhere else. I didn't want personal information but wanted to k n ow the rules so I could check on her. Well the girl not a woman at all, tried 3 times saying they don't do that there. Well I told her she was a lier cause last month I was there going thru it. And I brought her. This hospital has very poor ... read more

This is not a hospital, it is a jail. No one at this "hospital" is there to help you. They will discharge you as soon as possible if you do not have insurance but if you have insurance.... oh boy you are in for a ride. They will bill you $2000+ a day to stay in a completely "un-private" room, you have a roommate and not allowed to close the door while their teenager staff members wake you up every 15 minutes (24/7) to scan your jail bracelet you cant remove. they are giving kickbacks to their doctors to involuntarily com... read more

Horrible experience. It's just a mad house of doctors and therapist changing out consistently. I was there 2 weeks outpatient and quit going. You'd have to wait outside have the time for an office worker to let you in, they were usually late. It's just a huge waste of time and money. If you really want to get clean and change your life go to Turning Point of Tampa. These people go out of there way to help you. It's no cake walk. It's well structured and helps ring you down and learn your self worth.

Beware! Do not send anyone that you care about there for "help" or "treatment" the staff and doctors are horrible, the place is disgusting and they treat you like prison inmates. They are a scam and hold everyone against their will by telling them that if they ask to leave they will be baker-acted. Even if you go in "voluntarily". The "therapy" is playing games such a bingo or coloring. They dont let you outside or give you fresh air breaks and only allow the smokers out to smoke but if you do not smoke you do not get any fr... read more

The word "crisis" means that someone needs immediate and significant help. That is NOT what NTBH can offer. On Day 3, my loved one was finally given psychiatric meds. On Day 5, he was finally met by a case worker to take his history and listen to his summary of pain. Both of those basic crisis services should have been offered Day 1. In the meantime, my loved one was left to stare at a wall. No individual therapy. Group therapy once a day, but no other structured activity. And they won't let him out.

This place was horrible! Most of the staff were uncaring, rude & some were absolute racist! It was freezing in there and I asked for 3 days for an extra blanket Never received one. I also asked for a gown and if possible for someone to wash my clothes because I went in due to an emergency. They acted as though they were being interrupted and we (the patients) were a huge inconvenience. The facility smelled of urine & was dirty! The food was not good at all. They wake everyone up every 15 mins to scan your hospital band! I w... read more

Are u kidding me...this is worse than jail...my husband is there right now and I called to say I was coming to get him after he admitted himself 4 days ago and they tell me he is not on the list to be discharged yet another day. This is the biggest case of Medicare fraud and I don't no how they r getting away with this..there are multiple lawsuits against them and I just reported them to Medicare fraud and abuse and now I'm calling the Sheriff. Dont try to talk to them, they all have attitudes. Rude , combative, and just... read more

Please beware of this facility! Do your research before even thinking of becoming an in-patient. My son went there and foolishly we didn't check reviews. He voluntarily checked in for help. Within 24 hours realized what a mistake it was. There was little to no care . When he requested to be released the threats started. If he kept insisting he wanted to leave and seek help else where he was told they would Baker Act him. Why would a health care Doctor strong arm patients. It doesn't seem helpful or professional. We w... read more

These people are sick. They will detain individuals that do not meet the criteria to be there to suck as much of their insurance money as they can. They continue to try to force you to take prescription drugs while you are there so they can extend your stay longer and collect more. If you don't comply with their wishes they threaten to file a Ba-32 to extend your stay until you can get a court date. This is something out of a horror movie. Run as far and fast as you can!!
