I stayed at sandstone for 45 days and this is what I have to say. Sandstone Care was not what they said it would be. The website claimed there was a beach nearby and other cool things that were not actually real. That felt like a trick. The regular staff were kind and tried to help but the administrative team was very unorganized and hard to deal with. They messed up schedules and didn’t seem to care. The worst part was a therapist that was assigned to me, that did not help me treatment for 4 weeks into the stay. She was rud... read more

Choosing a residential treatment program is difficult because you can only base your assessment on a website, random reviews, your experience with admissions, and your gut.

There was constant fighting, arguing, and even staff gossiping about y... read more

The staff were unprofessional and often dismissive,they hired a teacher that was unprofessional and rude to other staff, there showing little to no empathy toward the clients. It was clear that the focus was more on making money than on actually supporting recovery. Because I got SAD and my therapist did nothing to really help me in the situation she barely even made meetings with me. The enviro... read more

I had one of the worst experiences here at Sandstone. This was my first residential. The website glorifies this place. On their website it states, “Fun and experiential therapies such as yoga, tai chi, hiking, and outdoor adventures will help your teen learn new coping skills when things get tough.” which isn’t true. A lot of the outings promised are unfulfilled, although once a week you go to the gym or horse therapy. When it comes to food, it is either frozen breakfast food or “TV dinners” which is served cold. The police ... read more
