Just got out two days ago and let me just say that my stay there was terrific! Even though there was a few times I was uncomfortable from my peers, I genuinely enjoyed staying there to get the help I needed! The staff managed to make me feel welcomed and comfortable during my stay. Which I was really happy about! I would definitely recommend this place to someone if they are in need of help.

PARENTS DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE! Staff severely abused my 5 year old child. If your child was here make sure they were not harmed!

I miss it there its safer in there then out here l miss my budys that l made in there thanks for everything by Jesse marquez

I have had enough experience with mental health hospitals within my family and children and can say Dr. Dharmapuri is a really good psychiatrist. He really listens and wants to help the children that come in there. My child said it wasnt the cleanest at times but they made a huge difference where others WOULDNT! Definitely worth looking into

I’ve been there 3 😼times and all of those 3 times it’s been good! The food was good and the staff was so nice and a 👹big👹 help for me 🤰🏾

Ive been here 5 between the ages of 15 and 17, and with each visit I’ve had a worse and worse experience. I’m currently 18, and still dealing with the effects of my visit from November of 2020. One staff member helped me through a panic attack I had after 3 codes had been called that day for fighting. As soon as my breathing steadied, he thought it was the perfect opportunity to talk to me about my trauma that I had experienced a month prior. After he was done talking, he left me in a room by myself to go lead a group, but told me I was welcome to come to group once I felt ready. I ended up having another panic attack as soon as he left and hyperventilated to the point of passing out. The patients helped me more than the staff ever did.

The staff and other patients was hella cool i love it there everybody was like family

I’d give zero stars if I could. Poor communication between team and families. Don’t bother calling because you’re not going to get through most times to the nurses station. My son became suicidal while in PHP treatment and when I followed their instructions and brought him in for inpatient evaluation they said continue PHP. This is the worst healthcare experience I’ve ever had. Seek care elsewhere and you might have a shot at improving.

I was recently working at this facility as a RN and really enjoyed my time! I worked at GPH for almost two years and really enjoyed it. As a new nurse, the growth and opportunity I had at this facility was incomparable. I was able to closely work with management and the DON provided multiple opportunities for continue education. I worked with many skilled clinicians that were able to provide rationale for decisions being made. If you want to work at a place that allows all staff to have a voice and management that takes the time to listen this is it. This hospital has policies and procedures in place but really allows the staff to individualize the treatment provided. The last thing to mention is how nice the medical staff is. As a new nurse, I had SO many questions. CMO and other providers were always able to explain diagnosis’s and medications that I may not have been familiar with.

They said I need a pin to talk to my friend😔 Like she knows it’s me🙄cmon now😪 #imyD

This is jachristiana it was kinda good i got attached and when i left i cryied bc some of the staff and my peers was just like family

My daughter is currently there. Everyday she calls me telling me how incredibly rude and mean staff are. They wont listen ..she has to wait hours for a glass of water. She ended up catching a cold there and they wont even give her meds..wont release her til monday. Im literally going crazy at home . I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOSPITAL TO ANYONE. No child that needs help is gonna get it here.. Please dont do it ..i seriously just wanna call the cops n go get my child 😔

While I was there they were nice and super cool and made my time there better, the food was okay and they also pass around snacks which is really much appreciated 🥺 if you make a request like for an example listen to music or watch a certain show they will listen to you and try to do that for you!! Loved my time there!💗

This place is ridiculous not only lie but they take advantage if you dont talk their language. When a child is there they will Not take them seriously. Im reporting this place. This is serious... Very disapoint it and very unprofessional.This is ridiculous....

Stole my phone and didn’t give me that cup of water#miss sage😪and#miss my card playing group 🏩

This hospital is great. I would happily recommended it to kids in trouble. It differs depending on the person but I think this is a great place

I was There And the Staff was nice to Me I wanted to cry everyday but They Made my Day EveryDay Me in that hospital I had to get my thoughts together It the only reason I rated a 4 because I barley saw my therapist And my doctor I only saw them a when I first got there and when I left but the staff help me and motivated me to get out in the world One of the staff where mr.Paul That made my day and Ms.zee and Mr.Ray And ms. Kay they push kids to get better the food Was Slight ok but it’s a hospital so don’t be expecting restaurant food ~Abria.

I suppose to start this place tomorrow as a partial outpatient hopefully it turns out ok or the gone have so problems.

So in the upstairs I had to go to school there there were classes upstairs and if a kid does something bad they lock the kid in a room and keep them captive there and give them shots its bad

While better than other facilities, better does still not mean good. My family member, and other Hispanic patients they interacted with, where treated with less deference than their other patients. While they might be the minority in this facility, they still deserve the same respect and ability to participate in group discussions. My family member also recalls that the staff kept encouraging a vegetarian patient to eat meat to raise a vital of hers.Our first visit we were allowed to keep our personal belongings on us. On our second visit we were told quite brusquely that we were not allowed to keep them during our visit. Visiting hours are strict, a staff member goes down and any time they dawdle going down the elevators is deducted from your visiting time. While 15-20min might not mean anything to them, it could mean a lot to someone who has to take 2 buses and a train or a $20 Uber to be there on time... and for them to just waste your precious time with your loved ones. That is not fair.Make sure your children are aware of their rights in this facility, that they review any paperwork they sign. Ask if there is any way you can minimize their stay at this hospital. Report any trouble with their roommates, lest they be blamed for causing trouble themselves.

This hospital is the worst. My son has been to this hospital many times. His behavior hasn’t changed. I thought they was supposed to help him, but it’s only getting worst. They don’t deserve no stars if you ask me.

When I was a patient here I just grew even more deppresed and some kids lose hope being here so long. I know I did I stayed here for 3 months some of the staffs were to lazy just to give us a cup of water. The food makes you gain at least 16-30 pounds. I know kids there that are extremely sucidal sometimes places like this work,and sometimes it just makes it worse. I know I was scared to speak up. Worrying that if I told I would have to stay longer. I missed my family and I didnt want to be there. This is from a patient view sure there was good staff. Like Mr Harvey and Ms. Jennifer but is sucked school was easy though that was a plus.

I was there maybe for like a week and a half and this happened around March. The staff they are okay. I really didnt have much issues there or any staffs had any issues, our group was pretty good. The problem is the food, the food is the one that got me sick after a while, I forgot which department I was in, I really dont want to call out names so, it was an all boy group. The cups were very small but sometimes they give up big cups and we keep it while we in the Day room. Other than that, I had a great stay. I was kinda upset when I had to leave everyone behind but we just have to move on with life.

This hospital is the worst place ever! The staff treat you like animals! Like we are not human! I was a patient and whatever we say to them they don’t listen! I felt mistreated like some wild dog! We rarely go outside and i’ve been captive for 2 and a half weeks and I nearly went insane just by being inside for so long getting fresh air.The food is disgusting. There’s no chips, nothing good. They give you only a small cup of water so I’m constantly dehydrated! They never clean the sheets! Never clean the showers properly! The floor is so dirty nothing gets cleaned! The people that wash our clothes would sometimes lose our stuff so I wouldn’t recommend bringing expensive clothing items.We have a tv with cable and we rarely use it. And because they wake you up at 3 am to check you and you only have 3 hours to go back to sleep, my sleep is constantly disturbed and I would have purple bags under my eyes!The staff are so unprofessional! They talk to us like we are animals! Just because we have mental issues doesn’t mean we don’t have feelings? And that we aren’t human?? One staff blamed us for “stealing a sharpener” and we all had to get body checked and it was all for nothing because it was in her room the whole time! The fact that she thought that it was us that took it is so disrespectful. They didn’t even say sorry!The security in the hospital is so bad and sometimes we the patients are at risk because of this! A girl escaped the unit 2 times! And a boy some how went in my room! The boy almost touched me and my roommate but instead he toiled my glasses and through them back at me! Something could bad could had happen if my roommate wasn’t there!This hospital is like jail, the military, or even hell! This is definitely not a hospital you’d wanna go!

Everyone there was so very helpful from the ladys at the front desk to the counselors. My son received the help that he needed and the tools to succeed when he was discharged. I cannot think of one thing I was even slightly disappointed with except my son was not a fan of the food!

I am leaving this review for my brother who spent a week there recently.My brother entered as a minor case of depression and this hospital clearly does not help. Staff are not cooperative and are often rude and absurd. You are let outside less than prisoners. And severe isolation can drive anyone insane.To add to this, outside is a small playground with 15 foot high wooden fences treating patients like dogs. Anything and I mean anything that the staff does not expect from you gets you injected in the ass to make you drowsy.Warning!Staff are not afraid to show sass repeatedly and will try to manipulate the patients psychological behavior with ass injections.

I was here for 11 days last year. The staff were okay, its all up to how you treat them. The other patients were the problem for me. I was 17 and with other teenaged girls, who were very loud. That was one thing the staff could not handle. The noise. We were so loud. I could hardly hear myself or the other people i was talking too. I cpuld not stand it. It made me more anxious than i already was and very irritated, i was close to acting out myself towards my last few days. It was my 6th hospitalization so i know how it is and to just keep cool and do as im told and just not be a hassle so i could go home. But oh man, the noise ..i almost broke. I actually liked the food honestly. Some wasnt good. But i liked it better here than at hartgrove, their stuff is cold. I would not recommend this place though.

It was decent but the only thing for me was the fact I wasnt able to use a spoon or a fork ._.

My daughter was in this hospital for 8 days. She left as a new person. She felt better and happier. Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. I love the waiting room.

I was there for 3 week everything was good but the food was terrible and some of my therapist were asking personal stuff and it was a male too but other wise it was good but i would not reccommend it :/

So I recently got discharged from inpatient and I have to say that I honestly love the staff there. They’re super kind and extremely helpful. What I will say though is that you/or your child’s experience there depends on said patients behavior! Drastically. I stopped reading the reviews, because they’re old and the ones I went through basically said the staff mistreats them. In reality, you’re at a *behavioral* hospital, the point of being there is to improve on that exact thing, your behavior. The staff does not mistreat us, or pick on us, degrade anyone for their race/background/sexuality/beliefs/etc. AND IF THEY DO JUST ASK FOR THE NUMBER IN WHICH YOU CAN (anonymously) MAKE A COMPLAINT ABOUT THAT PARTICULAR STAFF! Most of the girls that were on my unit were there for aggression, while I was there I just sat back and watched these little girls be oppositional/defiant/just straight up disrespectful to adults that are trying to show them that the attitudes they have won’t get them anywhere in life, and it especially is not going to get you out the hospital any faster. They want to see progress so if all the patient do is talk back/isolate themselves/ don’t eat(the food is honestly terrible but you have to at least make it seem like you’re eating because this determines how how you stay too)/don’t participate in group you’re either staying the same or you’re digressing. Realize that the aforementioned list is signs of both depression & aggression, it may not seem like a big deal to you but those are things they have to look out for. The staff makes notes of EVERY little thing you do and don’t do to give to the doctor, so word from the wise, don’t give them reasons to write down anything negative! It’s simple, but they make it seem like it’s painstaking labor. Addressing the reviews that say it’s jail, I agree with this feeling but I didn’t complain because I understood why it is the way it is. Once again, you’re a patient at a *behavioral* hospital. they take away your freedom (sorta) because regardless of what got you in there, you clearly wasn’t using that freedom appropriately, aside from that they introduce structure (yeah it can get tired, doing the same mundane things everyday, literally clockwork, but guess what? You shouldn’t have done whatever you did to get yourself in this predicament. But you’re in it, so now you gotta grow up and accept the “consequence” of your *behavior*) I noticed that for a lot of girls this structure was previously non-existent so they tried they’re hardest to rebel. But do I have to repeat what I’ve already repeated twice? Try to actually learn a thing or two. Speak once and listen twice. It seems pretty much average for the girls to not listen and just run off at the mouth. That’s a character flaw that should be quickly fixed. Anyway, back to it being like jail. Every door is locked, even the bathrooms. You have to ask for everything. People complained about why the bathrooms are locked with a key, so I guess them trying to ensure the fact of their safety in a *behavioral* hospital just goes straight over their heads. Patients can be there for all sorts of mental illness, if someones psychotic (or not even psychotic but even simply just aggressive) and you trigger them, now they’re waiting for you to go to the bathroom to get you alone so they can harm you. Guess what could have avoided that? A lock. And for people complaining about all the things they consider contraband or things we’re not allowed to have, you clearly don’t know how easy someone who wants to harm/ kill themself can take a seemingly innocent item and make it deadly. This goes for depression and aggression alike. The doctors/social workers/personal therapists/nurses/staff all work extremely hard to ensure everyone is getting what they need, but if you don’t voice that, then they’ll never know how to help the situation(s) speak up but learn to do that respectfully. Everyone at this hospital is 17 or under so we’re all kids, act your age and stop thinking you’re entitled to sizing up with adults.-(Word limit reached

Very Nice Place Love The Staff There Its A Great Place For Children Who ADHD Or Any Sickness

Dont let them hurt your loved ones or let them exasperate their condition. My son was here for about a month. He had a VERY TRAUMATIC experience during his EXTENDED STAY at this facility. They prescribed Antipsychotics (Seroquel) right away, not giving me his diagnosis until he was discharged. I found him with spit and blood on his shirt due to EPS. Also, they gave him INVEGA SUSTENNA which has left him in a robotic-like state now. He went from crying for me to get him out of there, to someone I dont even recognize. I tried to get him discharged with Police Escort but was told by Marko Razo that he was in Protective Custody. I was NEVER given a reason nor informed of this decision. They wanted him there longer only for Dr. Hussein to get him on the Invega (per his medical records). Not just that but what facility allows staff to HIDE their badges in their pockets?! Very UNPROFESSIONAL & UNETHICAL!!! Not everyones experience at these facilities is the same. DO YOUR RESEARCH, not just the facility, the meds and side effects as well.

For a type one diabetic with suicidal Ideation I expected to get my insulin pump taken from me but They dont carb count and didnt do a constant dose of Lantus at night. I told them I took 40 Units and at first they gave me 30 then 35 then 42 then 50 like they were just testing how my Blood sugar would go throughout the day. Kile and Kate, My social workers, were amazing. But Dr. Randhawa barey saw me and only spoke few words then sent me off. she didnt even tell me that the prozak might not take effect for a month until I told her It wasnt effecting me.

A decision to place your child in a facility is an extremely hard decision to make for any parent. I will admit there are things about this place Im not so fond of for example the limited visits with my child, limited phone calls with my child and the frosted Windows that they are unable to see out of. Isolating a child from their support system on the outside in my childs case did cause some increased depression during the beginning of her stay. I feel this should be a time where communication and bonding with your child while theyre working on emotions in a controlled setting should be increased not limited. This entire process has been a difficult one, however I will say that if you are lucky enough to have Megan as part of your childs team of professionals their chance of success is going to be high! She is amazing at her job and really does care! Everything she said she was going to do she did right away! Shes extremely supportive of not only her patients but their families as well! Thank you Megan for truly caring!

Hate this place to me this is jail more than a hospital,. Terrible people. The doctor only call you once, from a private phone just for a few words and later No way to contact her. Think twice before taking your child to a place like this,. I hate when people decides for you as a parent and for your child and thats what they do here.

HORRIBLE ROOM SERVICE!!!!!!!!!! I WAS THERE FOR 2 WEEKS AND DIDNT GET ONE FOOT MASSAGES PAIN IN MY A!! WAKING ME UP AT 3 AM TO CHECK MY VITALS WORST VACTION EVER

Very bad the staff are disredpectful curse at you and they dont have people you can discuss how you feel because most if the time there are only 2 staff members and 1 nurse and the food is disgusting i recently got out and while your there they say things like well go home then or thats why your here now of they tell you to shutup and doctors or social workers arent there on the weekends when your there they makr you feel worse then when you came do not go here they like to put you on lots of meds too they isolate you alot and you dont ever really go outside i sayed there 3 months total with out ever going outside and the staff members are lazy and dont do what their supposed to if you do any little thing they threaten you with an ass shotplease do not go here

Safe place for children who going through difficult time in their live

My sis is in there now and it’s like she’s in jail. They don’t care about her there. Girls fighting in there and everything. It’s a terrible environment

I would recommend this hospital to familys with children in crisis.
