Phelps Alcoholism Treatment

My family member was in patient for 30 days. He didn't get better unfortunately. Helpful. Not any follow up.

Pleasant, courteous staff. all treatment is delegated to support staff. MD,RN, SW ARE NOT INVOLVED IN GROUP TREATMENT PROGRAM. CASACs have limited role. No one to one with any trained staff. Patient to patient assistance is informal mode of treatment. Purports to treat dual diagnosis but psychiatric patients were not structured or supervised. Their personal care was dependent on kindness of other patients. Predatory patients, who stalked psych patients, we're not confronted nor was behavior forbidden. Again,claim it setting was provided by patients who recognized inappropriate behavior.

It was an utter failure in every imaginable way. And very expensive. Do not send anyone here. There is no real dual diagnosis- patients were treated like mental patients. It was run like a jail.

numerous weaknesses- pt ratio to professional staff is high. lack of interaction from superiors.

she could not relate to the people there. they were very different. I think you need to be with people you can relate to and I wouldn't.
