Denver CARES

The staff was unhelpful, lacked empathy, and seemed to enjoy the unhappiness they inflicted upon the patients. It didn't feel as though "Denver Cares".

False imprisonment, kidnapping, violation of the US Constitution. Held here against my will when I was not under arrest. Illegally coerced me to sign documents to be released from this fake jail. An absolute disgrace. The legal loopholes this place operates on is a violation of basic human rights. Class action lawsuit and immediate shutdown needs to happen. Disgrace. Employees are absolute human trash to work for this establishment. Super shady. Stay clear from this absolute nightmare. Charges need to be filed against all involved. An abomination that a place that runs like this exists in 2024 Denver, CO.

I was detained at Denver cares for 35 days against my will. I literally had to strangle myself with a cord to get transferred out of there. It's worse than jail because you can't bond out.

A week ago someone spiked my drink in a bar in Denver and this has been perhaps the most traumatic experience I have had in the US so far. They kept me all night and wouldnt even tell my husband where they were taking me, he had to track down the ambulance (he was already going to pick me up at the bar where I was with my friend) They left me on the floor of a cold room all night, they didn't give me any medication or take any samples, I could have gone home to "sleep it off" instead of having the most terrifying experience of my life. The front desk person was super rude. What a Joke.

I have unfortunately struggled with substance abuse for many years. I've been unfortunate enough to have been admitted to this facility 2 times and both times an absolute nightmare. The last time I was here I was locked in the back of a ambulance for what felt like hours. No one told me anything that was happening or what to expect next. I practiced deep breathing techniques to keep myself calm because I am claustrophobic but even the large amount of effort I practiced alone in that box was barely enough to keep me calm. Absolutely terrifying. It is also my belief that a large number of staff that work here participate in the local Gangstalking community who practice psyclogical warfare tactics on the homeless in the city. It is a pandemic and this place is dangerous if you are a targeted individual. Steer clear of it. Needs to be investigated.
