Bethany Behavioral Health a unit of Cedar Ridge Hospital

They lied to a judge in order to hold me against my will and steal insurance money. This place needs to be inspected. Edit: I will not contact you. You people do not care. Your nurses are horrible. Please, for the sake of every mentally ill person in this state, IMPROVE.

I went here in December of 2021 and I was scared to post this 1. The nurses are exceptionally rude 2. I was treated as an addict when I had asked for something to calm my nerves I find that very offending because Im not an addict. 3. I was given more medication on my 3rd day I had a heart rate of 160 and a fever of 104!!!! when I asked for a rag (I was so hot) all the nurse did was take my temp and say I was fine! I MADE sure that I WILL never come back here!!!!I dont care if my life is in danger I will not positively come back this place is so out of line and I hope that this place shuts down! Ryan the staff member needs to get fired hes hands down the worst staff out of them all! DO NOT COME HERE

This toxic institution was a nightmare from day one till day 5. They are nothing but numbers crunchers. How can a psychiatrist value his career while giving zero therapy! Dr Olivia should be ashamed of himself. Accusing a patient of threatens because she admits being released will be suicide . Shame on you! Resources? I was given a name and incorrect phone number as RESOURCES! THIS PLACEshould be shut down. If I have my way, it will be

Update!!! I left this horrific nightmare of a place in paper scrubs with below zero wind chill!!! Why you may ask? Be cause they lost my pants and sweater that I came in with!!! I was given a phone number to call. I called 4 times leaving 4 separate messages. Have you heard back ? I certainly didn't. I was promised my clothes or a reimbursement. If it wasn't so pathetic like this toxic institution is, it would AK most be laughable.. Shame on all of you. The only Blessing is that I am out of there and will NEVER RETURN. I rather DIE

Horrible place to stay and feels like a jail with how strict their rules are and how they treat patients. Staff screamed at me constantly,they drew blood from my hand twice, there was one day they conveniently forgot to tell me the shower was broken, and they completely ignored my very painful physical condition which requires a strict diet. They also lied to me about medication they put me on, slammed doors loudly to trigger me when I was trying to sleep, took away my phone privileges for something that wasn't my fault, and threatened to call the police on me because I was having a PTSD panic attack. I was already traumatized enough as was and these people were professionals who were supposed to help me. This hospital is one of the highest ranked in our state but staff thought that just because someone told them I experience psychosis that meant I wasn't deserving of being treated with kindness so I felt like I was less than human. P.S. No, I am not contacting you and I was given much better care in this facility when it was owned by Deaconess Hospital. How this place still passes inspections is beyond me because I've stayed in other facilities with better treatment too. This hospital was turned into a prison and just because we're mentally ill doesn't mean we deserve to be treated like inmates. We don't get the help we need when they receive threats to call the police on us and I wasn't the only one that happened to. I told them not to send me to your facility because my insurance doesn't cover it and you're lucky I can't sue you for how I was treated after all I got out of it was a massive bill. I wasn't given a choice in the matter because someone else lied about my panic attack and said I was psychotic. For the welfare of your patients, please sell your facility to someone who actually cares enough to do background checks on your employees because therapists should know the difference between a PTSD panic attack and a bipolar manic episode. I was treated like a homicidal maniac and it's a well known fact "all bipolar people are dangerous" is a myth.
