Some of these nurses have the charisma and social skills of a man that's been stranded on a desert island for 25 years. There are a few notable good apples however the ableism and unprofessionalism of the bad ones completely outshines their efforts to improve my stay. There's a complete lack of administrative control and there were several glaring discrepancies in the way certain vulnerable patients were cared for, including but not limited to, being given the wrong medication, a woman being denied her inhaler for several ho... read more

The doctor and social worker were rude and abusive. I came in with depression after a brain injury. They told me I had multiple mental disorders I had never been diagnosed with before and that I needed electric shock therapy. They told me I was taking advantage of my parents. They placed me in a low bottom locked in psychiatric facility in Waukegan where I could not sign myself out.

I am an inpatient discharge planner for a psychiatric unit in another state, and from an outsider's perspective with knowledge of the process, there were many issues with this admission. Poor communication overall (upon admission, he was not given a schedule, unit expectations, rules, etc., discharge was chaotic and unorganized, staff refused to complete FMLA paperwork, etc. ). My family member barely saw and/or ... read more
