I was admitted to this garbage dump a little over a month ago, It was a terrifying experience. The staff are not trained, The so called Nurse practitioner's, doctor and nurses go out of their way to be confrontational and provoke the patients then force them to take "the 12 hour knock out shot" that is what the other patients call the drugs given to you against your will for any resistance to what they tell you to do there. They took me off the majority of my meds, meds for heart, diabetes and lung conditions, I am on oxyg... read more

I want to emphasize that I would give this facility 0 stars if it were available. It's generous to even give them 1. The staff are rude, belittling, and dismissive. The doctor/NP spoke with me for maybe 10 minutes and gave me a false diagnosis with no explanation as to what it was. I asked for more information, but they wouldn't even give me a WebMD printout or anything. There is no 1 on 1 therapy there. Multiple staff confirmed that. During the weekends, there are no doctors or therapists making rounds. There are no groups ... read more

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. My mom was sent here a few years ago, for BPD. As others are saying, this place reminded me of a prison when I would visit my mom. She seemed scared, cou don't find any of her belongings, worse than went in. My mom did not get help she needed. It was awful. And, last time she was in ER waiting on transfer, I told them they were NOT to send her here, period.

My mom did two stints at OHP several years ago due to severe manic episodes and she stated that she felt like a prisoner both times. She said she seldom came out of her room, barely spoke to any health care "professionals" even when she requested them. She also stated that the facility promised a jam packed daily schedule of group and individual therapy/meetings that never happened. I vividly remember the handful of visits I made to her during her time there she seemed drugged out of her mind and wasn't cognitively alert. Fr... read more

Try literally anything else before admitting yourself or a loved one here. This is not a hospital. You will not come out better. I have far more trauma from my experiences here than I do from what I came to get help for. The only help or support I received was from other patients, not from any of the staff. I will not say that everyone who works here is a monster, because that's far from true. (I remember a very kind man in the dining hall who talked to patients like they were guests at a fancy restaurant. Most pati... read more

Never send anyone to this place. Staff is rude and mentally and verbally abusive. They keep people longer than necessary so they can collect more money. My insurance was billed $44.000.00 for 9 days. I had to practically beg for basic toiletries. Rooms were not cleaned. They keep people drugged the whole time they are there. Medications were not prescribed by a doctor. They were prescribed by two different nurses. One nurse prescribed vitamin d, the other prescribed several mind altering drugs. Why such a discrepancy? This p... read more

This place is hell and should be shut down. It is extremely overpriced and is a prison. I've been admitted to this place twice in May 2016 and Oct 2016. By how close those two times were, you can tell that hospitalization didn't work. The treatments subpar, the food was garbage. Some days, they wouldn't even let us go outside to get some fresh air. The game pieces were all missing in the Monopoly set and pages were missing in the books. There was nothing to do except watch tv, nap, or get a friend or family member to send yo... read more

They misdiagnosed me and I spent a total of about 5 minutes with a doctor while I was there. There is no where you can be alone or quiet--it's just loud, echoing banging all day and night.

you need to understand everyone in your place very upset with you and reason is you make them have bedtime and feeding poor patients nasty food and everything else to that not how you treat them and you know better than that and i dont like the way your rules setup about tiny uncomfortable beds and nightgowns and that i hated very much so and you need to be shamed of yourselves and you need to get yourself together for once before something gonna get all of you big trouble by the state law and government to and you know what... read more
