This place is HORRIBLE!! been here 3 days, havent been able to eat, have to beg for ice and water and they never bring it. My medications are never given on time (usually 2-3 hours late). They let you lays in pain, had to really on my Apple Watch for my vitals bc the nurses wound so them. They kept telling me everything is fine when in fact all mynEKGs and labs showed otherwise.

I was admitted here for psychiatric evaluation. When the nurse drew my blood to double check for illegal substances, it barely hurt at all. I was processed and interviewed very quickly, and the staff was very caring, polite, understanding, compassionate, and professional. Since the hospital did not have any available beds, I was transported to Blue Ridge Vista.

They should change the name from Psych Emergency to Same-Day Psychiatrist. You wait around for 2 hours hoping for mental health treatment, just to talk to a psychiatrist who tells you they cant do anything because this isnt outpatient. Theyll abandon you in a room with none of your belongings while they spend an hour writing a prescription for hydroxyzine, an antihistamine that supposedly has anti-anxiety effects.
I spent so much time explaining my specific diagnosis to the nurse and you what they wrote down? Diagnosis: unspecified anxiety. Insulting. Plus, they dont make any referrals, they dont do anything. Their only goal is to send you home. There is no treatment. Psychiatry is a sad excuse for mental health treatment. Ive left here twice feeling worse than when I went in, and believing mental health care just doesnt exist.
Im convinced the psychiatrists who work here choose to work here so they dont actually have to do psychiatry work. Psychiatrists who dont even believe medication is necessary.
