Years back, I was admitted to a “school” at Denver’s Children's Hospital. This “school” was a school for kids with psychotic problems. Anger management, depression, suicide watch ect. Thos two weeks…the most disorganized, poorly put together and worst place that I could have been. Two years later, I am in the same situation, mean people and terrible service. Before you even say it I know that it sounds like I am describing a bad hotel, but considering the problems that these kids were facing, we should have had freaking room service for the way they treated us.
The teachers were mean, not to mention the rude therapists. Half of the kids are were because they wanted to kill themselves. And the way that we were so mean, rude and unkind being there didn’t help me at all. The only reason I got out of there was because acted like everything was fine and that being there was enough motivation to NEVER go back. For some reason I forgot how bad it really was. I am now back, and regret every minute of my life to get me where I am.
An article was published on medicalnewstoday.com that released the average number of deaths in hospitals each year. The result was astonishing. 195,000 people die of treatable problems in hospitals each year, give or take. To think that this number of people died under the care of professional doctors is a bit frightening, to say the least. For those people that may very well be reading this from the hospital I will not take back anything I say. This should be a turning point for you to maybe make the kids feel comfortable and safe, as apposed to the opposite.
We are there for a reason, if we have an idea of how to fix our “problems” as you call it, LISTEN! This goes for everyone in the medical business from clinics to residential. Your not getting paid to be mean to us! Think about that.
