Still recovering to this day from 12 pills dr green put me on. This practice was the worst at keeping peace in the facility, and just sedated everyone to cooperate. You are NOT ALLOWED to drink water in the facility. I was put on lithium day 1, and due to such a drastic jump within one week she did, no water, I was hospitalized due to lithium toxicity. Beware

I've been a client of this facility for 6 years. They are my family. Clients AND staff. I cannot count how many times Jackie the office manager or Karen the program director have gone above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. Karen heads the place but she is the most down-to-earth woman. And her caring is not an act. Alison, a clinician, is another superstar. I've always felt I could tell her anything with no judgement. I see these folks as friends. They have had their ups and downs as any place does, but i go well out o... read more

Please be weary of Natchaug and their Rivereast treatment center. I'm surprised they haven't been sued for malpractice at this point. Between ignoring patients who were actively having panic attacks and refusing adolescents to see the doctor so they don't kill themselves, this practice is an unfortunate representation of the current professional mental health field and its innerworkings.
