I was placed on a 72 hour hold after threatening harm to myself while intoxicated. I was never given an I.D. bracelet. They refused to give me one of my prescribed psychiatric medications which I have taken for six years. I went through withdrawal because they would not contact my personal psychiatrist. The weekend crew was awesome but the weekday employees were inpatient, rude and of no assistance. Their attitude was too bad, so sad. My paperwork was never released to my own medical provider. Was there something to hide? I filed a complaint when the nursing supervisor contacted me once I was back home.
My son was admitted here after threatening me and self mutilating himself. He suffers from Schizophrenia. They only dosed him with meds and released him after 4 days. I called several times and also asked to talk with a doctor or his case worker. NO ONE there ever responded to me or returned my calls. They were always unavailable!
