Hi, when I got to Bornewood hospital I was 17 (witch made me see old for the adolescent unit) and in denial of a lot of my issues for a while keeping me in my bad patterns. When I got out I never felt better. Bornewood through the combination of a supportive and flexible environment has completely changed my life for the better. I met some of the best people in my life there patients and staff. I reacomend bornewood to anyone struggling to "survive in their environment" and remember to keep an open mind and give it your best shot.
It was awful. No one did A THING for me. At all. It was like no one watched us... We were minors... There was cutting and purging and restricting going on while there. Clearly going on. They did nothing. Said I still wanted to kill myself and they sent me home the next day.
My first experience, as I went there for depression, had nightmare problems and self harm, — it was alright but please do not go here if you honestly have your own plan for treatment. They did not help me with my personal problems nor questioned why i did what I did, nor helped nightmare problems or “seeing” as to where I see shadows, etc you know? They do however, make you feel wanted at times, compliment you and make you smile so I give them that. Anyways I requested to leave due to no security, felt awkward, had a guy throw stuff at me and they can’t do anything about it which obviously made me go crazy and angry but I kept my mood happy. My roommates are friendly, extremely smart so that also kept me going which I give another plus to this hospital. It’s not the best, I did leave with a smile, they do give good food and offer anything for you so I will give credit when it’s due, but it was definitely not the place I was looking for. If you show any behavior or such, they will tend to keep you there longer. If you’re planning to go here - ask for a 3-day discharge meaning you will have three days (not including weekends)
The staff in Steadman building were very rude especially I believe liz and Bob the like to antagonize the patients to they blow up so they can get you in trouble. The staff defiantly needs to have better training. Try to find a better place to go to
Had a family member stay here to help with her depression. She had serious complaints with staff. She was left outside for 30 minutes before anyone noticed. She's been insulted by staff, and they made no effort to develop a discharge plan. If you can at all help it, go somewhere else.
