This place is terrible, do not leave a loved one go there. Communication is horrible, you call , leave a message and no one replies. Starting with Amber, she seems nice but is all a front. The nurses in unit A , terrible. There was one Leah, that was not nice at all, she should not he a nurse. They over dose the patients with meds. Please do not take anyone here!!

This place is a nightmare! My father was kept for 6 days. He was never given a change of clothes(even though we brought them in) until the night before he left. We had absolutely no communication with a Dr, or case worker except first night to get permission to see him, and last day when we rec'd a call he was discharged. I left numerous messages everyday , but NO ONE CALLS BACK!!! You cant even call your loved one except for 2 time periods a day, and most of the time the calls don't get answered. My father was attacked by h... read more

I am posting this for my fiancee Kelly Anstett. I strongly recommend that the state & health department get involved.. This place is a nightmare for for anyone who sincerely needs help. So I'm going to try and explain all that has happened to me in the past month. I was taken to the hospital for a seizure due to low sodium from over drinking. I was at the hospital for 3/4 days and was discharged. Upon my discharge I cut back the drinking and because of it I went into an Alcohol withdrawal so bad that I was Baker Acted. ... read more

DO NOT LET ANYONE YOU CARE ABOUT BE ADMITTED TO THIS FACILITY. This is an admit & release scam, no real help was provided to my mother but they not surprisingly felt she was perfectly fine to be released after the 5 days of guaranteed insurance benefit was up. Once we found out where she had been taken we tried for days to get her out but we kept being passed around in a phone tree with a combination of no one having any answers or being hung up on or being spoken to very rudely by staff. I can only imagine the nightmare... read more

This place is terrible. The staff do not care about anyone. One specifically, Cynthia (a tech), is an awful person. She goes out of her way to make the patients feel bad about themselves. I went 2 days and half the 3rd day without brushing my teeth or showering because no one gave me anything to do these things. And after asking multiple times, Cynthia, who was sitting around chatting with co workers all day finally decided to make me a basket with toiletries but she purposely "forgot" a towel. I didn't want to give the sati... read more

No showers were allowed but wait I am not finished he was sent half way to meet me to go home the driver did not speak a word of English past his destination because he had a wrong address my son tried to tell him but he did not understand English. Getting... read more

So why would a facility release someone before they are mentally stable? This place did. They put her on a bus to come home and she didn't even have her house key!!! I had to leave work, jump in my car, go to her place to make sure she wasn't walking the streets. I waited for her to arrive at her place, but what a scare! And guess what, she is back in the hospital, not this one! They gave her medicine and sent her home. And prior to bringing my daughter in, I discussed with someone on the phone if this facility could pro... read more

Follow up report. I managed to get my wife out of there thank God. They were non-responsive to any question we had. My wife told me she slept on a cot and the first night had no pillow. She said the nurses were very rude and would never answer any of her questions. I tried many times to get to her unit and the phone would ring for a long time then go dead. I did speak to one attendant and asked if my wife was leaving today and she said no the has been Baker Acted which in Florida means you are at the mercy of the institutio... read more
