This is from a comment on the blog that was written today. This patient was raped in a drugged state.<br />
<br />
I encourage anyone who has had a bad experience to contact me directly via author at harvalan.com. <br />
<br />
You are not alone. These holds are illegal.<br />
<br />
It is urgent to report this ASAP to agencies as some will not take complaints that are more than a year old.<br />
<br />
<b>Anonymous January 2, 2020 at 10:33 AM</b><br />
I was admitted under a 72 hr hold, due to a mess up with my meds., and the intake was delighted I had Medicare. As soon as I was admitted, I was told that my stay will be 96 hrs because the review team does not work on weekends. <b>I was assaulted which prolonged my stay even longer, and raped unbeknownst to me as I was drugged when it happened. I only knew because I got myself checked upon discharged. </b><br />
<br />
<br />
There are some very bad staff there, and some good ones. Be careful of this place, it is really a scary place. I was never so terrified in my life whilst there. This place has got to be investigated as a lot of their patients of varying ages (school aged children to elderly) are extremely vulnerable, and can be made worse from certain staff actions. <b>This place is not a Bonafide treatment center but a place of taking advantage of the mentally ill for money and billing insurance, in guise of treatment.</b> There are some good staff who try to do good. Know your patient rights and insist on them, and do retain a lawyer while there, so they know they need to not cross the line.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
WHERE TO COMPLAIN<br />
<br />
Do these ASAP<br />

I've got a dream.<br />
<br />
A big, big dream.<br />
<br />
That when someone is going through any kind of difficulty, there is a safe place they can go.<br />
<br />
In a beautiful natural setting.<br />
<br />
With animals.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">MY LETTER TO YELP</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: large;">Dear Yelp People,</span></span><br />
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I understand the reasons for your algorithm and the fact is I personally find algorithms quite fascinating. I’m actually</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">writing a novel about Alan Turing and I have done research into the Entcheidungsproblem which is where algorithms</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">were first formulated. Did you know that algorithms were first formulated to prove that certain mathematical problems</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">were in fact unsolvable?</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fortunately, I have a problem you might want to help solve.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> I believe there is a case in which an exception to your algorithm could be made because it could save lives.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Please check out this listing.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">https://www.yelp.com/biz/centennial-peaks-hospital-louisville</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I don’t know if you or a loved one has ever been in a barbaric hospital, one that forces people to undergo electro shock</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">therapy without their permission, in which the staff our cruel, ignorant, and incompetent, denies people their medication,</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">gives them the wrong medication, makes no dietary provisions for people with severe allergies, lets violent patients </span><span style="font-size: large;">run loose, forces people to stay longer than legally allowed, and overbills.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you were there yourself, as I was, wouldn’t you be frustrated that 22 reviews, none of them fake, most of them</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">detailing this kind of barbarity are not recommended? So that someone who is in a hurry will turn to the entry and</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">see it has three stars and two highly positive reviews they might think the place is safe. When it is not safe. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In my community we have had a suicide because of malpractice at this facility.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yelp has such a great power to do amazing good and to create community. People rely upon your reviews, and rightfully </span><span style="font-size: large;">so, to help them make decisions.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Parents need to know what has happened to children here.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Spouses and lovers need to know what has happened here.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is my life mission to make it safe for people who need treatment. I do not have millions of dollars. I do not have a huge </span><span style="font-size: large;">organization.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Can you please help me save lives by making the 22 reviews (yes even the positive ones) figure into the actual</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">rating calculation and make them fully and automatically visible?</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Do you have hearts? I hope you.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Are you willing to use your abundant brains to hack your own system?</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If Alan Turing had gone into Centennial Peaks in a suicidal state, I am sure he would have faired poorly too.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We are not just crazies who don’t matter. Everyone matters. I happen to be an internationally respected scholar who</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">contributes to my community in so many ways. But again no one should be treated badly.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I think it is exciting to be part of such an influential company where you can really make this world better.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I can’t force you to do anything and I’m not into threats. I do know your algorithm has gotten a huge amount of flak lately.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Some say that people are gravitating away from your site and are not posting reviews anymore. Ford wouldn’t listen</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">to anybody when he marketed the Edsel either. Chevy didn’t bother to realize that Nova in Spanish meant “not go.”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I’m sure Myspace thought they were going to last forever too. I’ve studied marketing extensively and it is nothing</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">short of amazing the poor decisions made by promiment companies. The Nazis were convinced that they</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">had a perfect system and in fact it was certain features that they thought were the finest part of it that created</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the loophole for them to be broken.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I will really really praise you on my social media if you help out. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But I know that sometimes I can’t make things happen because companies will give some excuse.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I will close with the thought that doing something difficult and courageous is its own reward sometimes. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Forget for a second that you are trying to justify what your company does and see yourself as human being who is in</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">position to leave this world a better place than they found it.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Think it over. If Alan Turing could break the Naval Enigma, surely you can find a way to restore those reviews. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yours sincerely,</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This institution is a joke. They should be investigated. My spouse went in to lean more about the outpatient program as she does suffer from bipolar. She had a bad day last Monday and although we have many plans and measures in place any time she is up or down we thought it would be good to find some alternative options. NO where on the web site or during her consultation (to see if she was a good fit for their program) did they disclose they could hold her or that the possibility was there. She answered the questions accurately as how can one seek the right help if they lie. This was Thursday BTW!. She had a bad Monday and has countless times prior she does get suicidal thoughts. We know her patterns and we have a plan if we ever feel they would be more than just thoughts. They had her fill out the forms, then recommended the 5 week program. She said she only ever needs about a week or two at the max when on her way back up but not 5 weeks. The minute she stated this, they detained her for having suicidal thoughts in the last 72hrs. In Colorado it states "imminent danger" not suicidal thoughts, they can hold someone. She posed no threat, to herself or others, she actually had a great day that day. WE had a amazing weekend planned, fathers day, comic con, WWII Ball, Pride and a small trip I had taken off for to surprise her. They did not sit down and thoroughly talk to her to assess if she was a threat, They went off of one question and answer, that is not enough to hold someone for 72hrs. If anything they are going to make her worse, this is going to be detrimental to her missing out on this weekend we've been planning for close to 6 months,.....6 months. The guilt she will now feel I can't imagine. They don't make people better, they help make people worse. If they are the Dr. they should have seen she was fine. We know her patterns better than anyone, but did they talk to the family NO!!!. The minute she didn't want to do the 5 week program @ 200 per day, they booked her. They baited her with this program, so that no matter what she did they got their money. They are an insult to institutions. I will be filing complaints, and seeking a lawyer. People can have thoughts, we all do, knowing about them, and their patterns, and overall well being, they cared not to find out, that is how you know if someone is truly unwell and needs to be held. They lied, hid, and tricked her so no matter what they got money. This could forever impact her for life, the guilt she will have from going into a basic question and answer ...trying to plan ahead if she ever did need help...voluntarily looking for additional options for the future. No she's going to dread these places, be scared they would ever do this again, she may never forgive herself for going in there to find out information. This place destroys anyone that they want money from, shell out money and your good, don't and they ruin you.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">**Added Note- (as everyone can make an error, but her "thoughts" were Monday morning , she went in to find out information Thursday evening. In all technicality she had not had suicidal thoughts in the last 72hrs, they didn't even ask when she had her thoughts, if they had, they would have been over 72hrs old. So again, they don't care, they just want money)**</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">My recent stay was the most horrible hospital experience of my life. The so called doctors don't know their ass from a hole in the ground and the social workers are the worst. I have absolutely nothing positive to say about this place. The only thing that they were successful at was screwing up my meds. Are you looking for doctors with no compassion that could care less about your basic needs? Then this is the place for you!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Stay away from this hospital, no matter how eager to get help you are! This place has severely traumatized me rather than helped me. It is a shame that it is named a hospital. CPH's H stands for hell. I'd give it -100 stars if I could.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was there for inpatient treatment. Their operation was disorganized and careless about the patients. They seemed greedy to hold on to any patient who can afford them and let go those who can't, even when the latter obviously shouldn't leave. They like to sell ECT to patients, regardless how many patients were damaged by it. I had a social worker and a psychiatrist who were extremely incompetent and unethical. They and the entire hospital were coercive and had a god complex. They misdiagnosed me and forced me to cooperate with their mistreatment. The facility was extremely cold. Beyond normal cold. So cold that even their own staff wrapped themselves in blanket, when they only gave patients thin blankets to sleep with and refused to change their a/c. I was not allowed to dry my hair before bed, so the extremely cold air blew on my wet hair all night long. It was torture. They've done enough to screw up my life because of their lack of professionalism and refusal to do the right things. They have left me so traumatized that I no longer trust any mental health professional and am just barely living. I was better when I was first admitted. I've heard from many others about other patients that were hurt by CPH. I think that this place probably believes that they can get away with everything because most patients won't come out for privacy reasons; and even if they do, they will be easily discredited due to the mental disorder labels. Well, I believe that a class action should be called to take this place down.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The help I received in IOP was wonderful, truly helped me to stop repeating by addictive habits and helped me to understand my disease and how to successfully mange it. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Obviously, this treatment costs money, but everyone should be completely informed as to exactly how much they will need to pay in order to receive services. I was told my insurance would cover everything, except a $25 copay. I said great, I can do that, and paid every time I went. A month after I completed treatment I was sent statements that I owed $575. How is this possible? I called the hospital and spoke to billing, Britney said that it is really up to me to know my benefits and they just called my insurance as a courtesy, "she's sorry", but can't do anything about it. Be careful, what they tell you is your responsibility, may not really be the case. When I came to Centennial Peaks, I needed help, I was very vulnerable and I wasn't thinking I needed to double check my insurance coverage. Now I am stuck owing twice what I had budgeted into my family expenses.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">At this point, I am upset and feel taken advantage of when I was down...If I had known my cost would have been double what I was told, I could have made an educated decision wether to stay for treatment or not. I was not given that option.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This hospital has a policy of no therapist contact with patients. Even if the patient requests it, the parent request it (with a minor) and it is therapeutically indicated. Apparently hospital convenience is more important than patient care.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This hospital is very poorly functioning. I've been here a total of four times, and all of my expeirences had been great until my last one. My doctor was absolutely rude and insulting. My social worker was constantly threatening me to send me to the State Hospital, despite her knowledge of there being no open beds there. The charge nurse turned everything into a power struggle. I'm not saying that I was perfect in this situation, because I wasnt. I was in a very tough place in my life and I'm certain that I was difficult to handle. However, if you are going to choose to work in a PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL with ADOLECENTS, please please please, learn some common courtesy. While here, I was put on a "desk program" in which, I had to sit at a table, doing packets while everyone else was in group. Not only is isolation a trigger, but I voiced this several times. My doctor didn't seem to care too much and would not change my medication, despite my suicidal thinking getting worse. She seemed to think everything was a joke. And don't get me wrong, a few of the staff were actually very nice, but a majority of the staff members made my stay a living hell. I left here feeling worse than I did before admission. As far as the three previous hospitalizations here, they gradually got worse, however, Dr.Carlson is amazing and helped me greatly.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This won't be a recommend review because it's not favorable. All bad reviews get called not recommended. This shows these reviews are bised. I am waisting my time telling you not to take your loved one there. Of course my wife ended up there on her owned. This place is sick as she is.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">After researching extensively for mental health treatment inpatient for a client, I decided to send my client to Centennial Peaks for treatment. The client experienced a very unprofessional interface with front desk staff, then had an extremely rude and uncaring interaction with the intake department whom bluntly stated,"Why did you even come here - we don't take your insurance" The staff gave no thought to the mental health status of the client at the time and didn't offer any resources or alternatives.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;"> 11/2/2014</span><br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;"> PARENTS think twice about evaluating your child here. They will commit him/her without your input. We were seeking outpatient treatment for anxiety/depression and came to do an evaluation of the program to enroll. We had let them know that our teen had a suicide scare a year ago before coming. We had spent months building trust with our son to be honest about his depression. We asked him to be totally transparent and he was. A counselor decided he should be held for 72 hours and not one person interviewed us parents to gain more information or understanding. Everything we worked on with our son was shattered in that moment. I doubt he will ever trust a mental health professional again and now we are left to treat him on our own. Think twice about trusting anyone with your child's metal health. They may be more interested in mitigating liability issues than in your kid's well being. 8/24/2014 I voluntarily checked myself in to centennial peaks to get sleep medication and was not only treated poorly, but i was given the wrong sleep medication and was forced to pop, injected benzos and take sleeping aids. Because I hadn't slept in days, I was feeling delusional.. They're answer was whadya know... MORE DRUGS! Thy gave me an anti-psychotic (I'm not even schizophrenic) and I ended up turning into a zombie walking around and head butting a staff member. (I have no recollection of this). At that point they put me in the isolation room and restrained me to the bed and locked the door. they left me in there for over 4 (or so I'm told) hours until they finally came and checked on me to see how I was doing. I was unconscious and unresponsive. At this point they realized I was OD'ing. I was flight for lifed to another hospital Denver where they saved my life. I was unconscious for well over 28 hours. I wish this on no one. Please don't go here. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> 3/8/2014 I was forcibly incarcerated at this place, and while that may have something to do with my hatred of it, it goes far, far beyond that. I was assigned a psychiatrist to talk to, and in my three day stay, I met with him twice for a total of about five to ten minutes. He used that time to guilt trip me for daring to ask for help for my anger issues. He said "I guess you know not to say those kinds of things, huh? This is a real life lesson for you, isn't it?" in the most condescending "you're an awful person" manner that he could. I would go into meetings relatively happy (because I made some friends there) and leave feeling like a psychopath. Dr. Fuller was his name. The food? Atrocious. It was so bad that I lost half a pound every single day that I was there. The group therapy sessions (and that's all you do all day except for meals and some brief moments of free time. Skip one therapy session and guess who doesn't get to go outside for their break?) were completely boring and pointless, save for one or two that were actually run by people who cared. A nurse named Beit for one. She was the shining example of what to do in a place like that, e.g. treat people like they're humans with real emotions and not cattle. She was one of the three or four people there who actually grasped that novel concept, and she was easily the best person there in terms of staff. They should all follow her example. Dead serious, no sarcasm. Let's not ignore the time when one of the patients who was larger than I was by a lot, had an anger attack and started ranting. Naturally they told all of us to go to our rooms, even the people who had to walk within two feet of a ranting, furious person who, if he had wanted to attack, would have had no problem doing so. I brought it up that this was freaking dangerous, but they didn't care. I was sobbing behind the dresser in my room and a doctor came to check on me. As in to make sure that I was physically okay. Screw how I was emotionally. I'm sobbing in a corner and scared out of my mind, but who cares? I went into that place not by choice because some paranoid people thought it would help me, and I left scared, untrusting of people in positions like that, and angrier than ever. One woman who had epilepsy was denied her medication for three days and, wouldn't you know it, had a seizure! As an epileptic myself, I'm quite thankful that they allowed me my meds. Now don't misinterpret me. I'm not saying that the place is run by Nazis and now I feel like I know what the Jews went through during the Holocaust. I'm not saying that in the slightest. I was treated like a criminal even though I hadn't done anything. Precious few people on the staff had any empathy, you know, the one thing that I think would be most important in a job like that, and it was a prison. DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU CAN HELP IT! EVEN IF YOU CAN'T, GET OUT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;">STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS! This is a poor excuse for help. They brag about having compassion, the staff is extremely rude, uncaring with a total disregard for professionalism. They look at you with blank faces give inaccurate information and leave you feeling helpless. They are not concerned for the welfare of patient or family. It is impossible to speak with ANYONE about circumstances or get explanations about care being given to family member, they will hold you WITHOUT CAUSE and claim "safety" BE WARNED!! This is not the place to get help! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>UPDATED: </b>Check out <a href="http://badpsychward.blogspot.com/2015/11/welcome.html">my recent email</a> sent to CEO Elicia Bunch prior to arranging a meeting on my <a href="http://badpsychward.blogspot.com/2015/11/welcome.html">Welcome </a>page. I ask her to shut down the ECT, transition to new staff and work with me to make her ward the best in the country. Otherwise I will continue with my mission here and elsewhere to spread the word so that I can keep as many people as I can away from the torture and abuse of CPH's Acute Impatient Ward. I appeal to the CEO's better instincts and I hope that she will rise to the occasion.</span><br />

<span class="description" style="box-sizing: border-box;">My daughter was held at this hospital AGAINST both parent's wishes and their treament of distraught parents was unforgiveable. Frankly, I've encountered pitbulls with more compassion than their intake staff and rate the whole experience right up there with watching my brother die. The doctor refused to answer my calls and the only treatment my daughter recieved there was "generic" at best. They billed my insurance company over $3000, not to mention a huge copay from us. There should be a huge sign on their front door: BEWARE.....</span></div>

<span class="description" style="box-sizing: border-box;">I'd give this hell hole a negative star if I could. I was sent there for suicide attempts. I was held against my well strapped to a bed. I was not allowed a change of clothes, shower, or food. They took me off my meds to see what would happen. Are you kidding me, that is very dangerous and I got very sick. I only saw psychiatrist once in 6 days. When I got to eat it was brought to me and practically thrown at me by the staff. My roommate was meth addict who was coming down and I had to stay awake with my eyes open for fear of another break down of theirs. The place smelled of urine and the staff was uncaring. I've never been so scared in my life. I got no medicine or treatment just abuse. THIS TYPE OF TREATMENT OCCURED IN THE 50S! My parents had to threaten a lawsuit to get me out. They were milking my insurance. This place is evil and should be torn down. I still have nightmares and will never forget. They wouldn't let me talk to my regular doctor nor my parents.</span></div>

<span class="description" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Our child was there and released against our feelings about it. I was told that he would need to stay there for 30-90 days and that when he would be released it would need to be to a supervised place. Within 48 hours of that call it was determined that his insurance would not cover the stay and we got the call that our child was being released that day. I begged and pleaded with them about our conversation the last 48 hrs and gave them examples of our child's behavior and why he should not be release. They would not listen. They release him and four days later he was involved in an accident that killed someone.</span></div>

<span class="description" style="box-sizing: border-box;">I have had 2 of my kids in this facility. I hated it! I really needed some help because they were "cycling" off of each other and the professionals in this hospital did not help me to find the help I needed with them. I later found out that I should have been directed to pathways by the team here who were working with me. They did not even mention this to me as an option. My kids were diagnosed as being skitzoeffective and bipolar - they were hospitalized numerous times in a years period and this facility had my oldest one at least 3 times in that year and still did not give us the help we needed. The final option that they gave to me with her was to send her to a teens homeless shelter!</span></div>

<div class="reviewContent" style="font-size: 14px; margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px;">
This hospital is very poorly functioning. I've been here a total of four times, and all of my expeirences had been great until my last one. My doctor was absolutely rude and insulting. My social worker was constantly threatening me to send me to the State Hospital, despite her knowledge of there being no open beds there. The charge nurse turned everything into a power struggle. I'm not saying that I was perfect in this situation, because I wasnt. I was in a very tough place in my life and I'm certain that I was difficult to handle. However, if you are going to choose to work in a PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL with ADOLECENTS, please please please, learn some common courtesy. While here, I was put on a ""desk program"" in which, I had to sit at a table, doing packets while everyone else was in group. Not only is isolation a trigger, but I voiced this several times. My doctor didn't seem to care too much and would not change my medication, despite my suicidal thinking getting worse. She seemed to think everything was a joke. And don't get me wrong, a few of the staff were actually very nice, but a majority of the staff members made my stay a living hell. I left here feeling worse than I did before admission. As far as the three previous hospitalizations here, they gradually got worse, however, Dr.Carlson is amazing and helped me greatly. <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2015/2/26285630" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

This facility is scary. It is horrific in every way you can imagine. If you or your loved one is considering a mental health facility, I would recommend going somewhere else. The doctors are cold and callous and do not care about the betterment of the patients. They are concerned only with getting patients in and out in order to make money. I would stay away, period! <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2014/9/26221813" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

Minus 10 Stars! This place uses unethical tactics with medication and food combinations that induce panic attacks for use in screening for those who do not have a panic response. The air conditioning in this facility is flat out torturous. All of the reviews that tell you to stay away from here line up exactly with my experience here.

It was just like "One Flew Over the Cuckoos nest..." Is there a review system that goes lower than 1?? These people were apathetic for the most part, withe exception of a few. My loved one was very ill while there, but staff continually said she was lying. This caused us to simply to BEG THEM to take her to a REAL medical establishment. She was very ill and had to get medical intervention in an ER after CPH simply dropped her off at the ER up the road, then said she was discharged for good from CP. They overtly tried to hurt my loved one's reputation amongst staff, and they obliterated trust. Centennial Peaks could have remedied this themselves had they treated my wife 4 days earlier when she told them she was ill. HOW can you NOT believe a person when she tells you she is sick and not treat her or at least find someone who can and will??!!

As a family member, going in there was just like ""One Flew Over the Cuckoos nest..."" Is there a review system that goes lower than 1?? These people were apathetic for the most part, withe exception of a few. My loved one was very ill while there, but staff continually said she was lying. This caused us to simply to BEG THEM to take her to a REAL medical establishment. She was very ill and had to get medical intervention in an ER after CPH simply dropped her off at the ER up the road, then said she was discharged for good from CP. They overtly tried to hurt my loved one's reputation among staff, and they obliterated trust. Centennial Peaks could have remedied this themselves had they treated my wife 4 days earlier when she told them she was ill. HOW can you NOT believe a person when she tells you she is sick and not treat her or at least find someone who can and will??!! Their rate is flat, so if someone needs extra medical attention, they are shamed and told they are asking too much (or simply told NO-- We will NOT get treatment for you. Other review sites as well as DORA need to hear about this atrocious place <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2013/9/25726931" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

This place is an absolute insult to the mental health community. I knew a person who recieved services there, if that's what you want to call it, and she was treated with such disrespect and judement by so called staff, I don't even know why they are in this profession if all they are going to do is judge people, take away their basic civil rights, outright lying to not only my friend but wouldn't even let her have an extra blanket. They punish patients for not participating in group therapy sessions by making them stay an extra day, involuntarily, everytime they choose not to particiapte they get another day added, what kinda help is that, sounds like punishment to me!.Absolutely discussting treatment!!! I wouldn't send my dog here. This place denied my friend her basic rights for visitors, not recieving her mail, and very vindictive behavior by staff members who did not like her. What!! I thought mental health was suppose to be a non-judgemental environment, what a crock, this place should be shut down without a doubt. They treat patients as if they are in jail not a care facility. Basic things are taken away at the staff's leisure, that is a denial that is not their right to take away, absoutely appalling. Do not send your loved one's there if you want true help, this place is not it for sure. They do not treat people with dignity or respect, the very foundation that mental health care is suppose to be based on. My friends' doctor did not listen to her, put her on all kinds of drugs and did not addresss the very issue she was there for, severe depression, this place made her more depressed. After a 72 hr hold they put my friend on a 90 day hold and stripped her rights away. They would not allow her wife to have any info about her, even though she was on legal paperwork designating so, she was lied to countless times by various so called case workers, nurses, doctors, that her spouse would be contacted but never was and would not give her the patient number, which is clearly stated on their website, to allow her to have visitors, they would get mad at her everytime she asked about it and acted like they knew nothing about it and it's in their website, that's discrimination. I have read many reviews of this hospital and none of it is good. Wake up people this place is a jail not a place to get help!! <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2012/12/21964194" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

This facility is a TOTAL NIGHTMARE. Avoid it at all costs. I have to believe that anywhere would be a better choice than this facility. Rude, standoffish, generally unresponsive staff members run this facility utilizing threats and intimidation to force compliance on its patients. They have outright DENIED needed medication to patients without explanation, and get indignant when you as a family member want to question their methodology. <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2012/10/21964198" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

Awful, truly awful. At a time when I was angry and hurt, I needed compassion. What I got was rude, standoffish staff members who made empty threats in an effort to have compliance. If you need inpatient psychiatric care, go to West Pines or Porter Adventist. There, you will find a caring and engaged staff. There is not one positive thing I can think of for this place. <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2012/9/21964195" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

If you have the resources and transportation to bring your loved one to another facility do it!!!! The headline on the brochure brags about being encouraging of family participation, but they only allow visiting for 1 hr of the day. You don't get to talk to a Dr unless you absolutely insist on it. Want to get a return phone call from a social worker-forget it! They had a blaring TV playing heavy metal music in the intensive treatment unit, pt urinating themselves and staff ignoring it, communication is non-existent, I could go on and on. After 14 yrs of working in health care as an RN this is by far the absolute worse care I've ever seen. I give them minus 5 stars. <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2011/12/21964193" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

Almost every professional I spoke with or encountered at this facility was rude. The doctors that I saw for a limited interview made a very extreme diagnosis that has sense been refuted by every mental health professional I've seen. I went in here for suicide watch and was treated like a piece of dirt. I've sense made it to a 12 step recovery program and am seeing mental health professionals for a more accurate diagnosis. People with addiction and suicide problems have enough experience feeling like crap, they don't need to receive rude an arrogant care by an extremely judgmental staff. After looking at the size of my bill for the 72 hours I was here, I'd say this place is a giant money scam. With little attention paid to what a patient has to say, sticking ridiculous diagnosis on everyone and charging way to much money for poor care, poor food and overall poor facility. I'm a great-full recovering addict, and this place has absolutely nothing to do with that process <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2011/12/21964197" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

We had a very bad experience here at a time when help was needed. The evaluator was not paying attention, asked questions three times (simple things, like what is your regular doctor's name?) and made a determination based on a sitation that she made worse due to her impatience and general bad attitude. <a href="http://www.judysbook.com/members/116477/posts/2011/3/21964196" id="hplReview" style="color: #0f6891; font-size: 11px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">more</a></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We've heard from several patients now that this unit is terrible. To this we can add the testimony posted about a month ago on a <a href="http://ie.indeed.com/cmp/Centennial-Peaks-Hospital/reviews?fcountry=ALL">website for employees </a>to review their working experiences.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: large;">You can see below that this reviewer makes it clear that patients are not receiving quality care, they are not receiving proper treatment.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Cenntenial Peaks CEO Elicia Bunch contacted me the other day.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">She seemed a decent person who wants to do right.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">She was interested in doing the food better. I explained how it had been done on other psych wards I had been on.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">She was interested also in using more holistic remedies like vitamins.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">We're going to meet.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">But I insisted that first the unit must be shut down. The doctors are incompetent, cruel, ignorant, and arrogant. The staff except for the marvelous TONI takes their cue from the doctors. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">And when you have <a href="http://badpsychward.blogspot.com/2015/12/they-fried-her-brain-guest-post-on-bad.html">read this account of ECT at Cenntennial</a> I think you will agree too.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">And I know some other people who want to tell their stories.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are Elicia and you are reading this, I apologize for being so</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">aggressive but this a life and death matter. It is. You work with me and shut it down and I will praise you to the skies, I will. No hatred here. It's about people's lives, people's health, that's all.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">A remark
made at the nursing station while I witnessed a poor woman who had been starving for 20 hours while waiting for ECT encapsulates another problem. “Oh I
know what you’re going through,” smiled the young woman at the counter, “I’m
hungry too.“No, you do not”, was my remark. “You may be missing lunch. This
patient feels like she is starving to death” (the actual wording I do not fully
remember.) Taken as a whole, aside from the occasional rudeness, the staff was
generally polite and friendly but not compassionate. The CEO of Centennial can
rejoice that she could not have found a more loyal set of employees who (from
the very bottom to the top of the totem poll) will consistently stick to the
rules and be less inclined to find solutions that satisfy patient and said
rules and will be guaranteed to pass the buck, abstaining from any desire to
take individual responsibility for the well-being of the human being standing
before them. In the upper levels,<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">she can
be confident that those staff will generally not answer patient questions nor
let them finish speaking when they are making an important point. One high
level person even told me, “I wish I were as compassionate and open as you” —
this person’s favorite word to me otherwise was “denied.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

unwillingness to go the extra inch on the part of the staff I knew for a fact
that there was some juice in the back room when I asked for some. But the young
female insisted there was no juice. When I reminded her that I had been given
said juice by another staff worker not long before, only then did she bother to
look and indeed there was juice. I received no apology.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">As an
empath, I can entirely understand the stress of the nursing station. Moreover,
in 1990 I spent over 100 hours volunteering in a Nursing home and I have served
a patient advocate on numerous occasions, including when my beloved teacher
John Strugnell was recovering from a stroke. I understand the hierarchy,
sociology and anthropology involved. I know that the staff are ever concerned
with safety and indeed are in fact concerned with patient well-being, up to a
point. They have to make quick and sometimes cold decisions to keep things
running smoothly and safely. They have to be very careful with the rules for
all sorts of reasons, not simply to keep their jobs. For this reason, I do not
blame the individual staff members so much as I blame the <i>ethos</i> of the
institution which is thoroughly rotten.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Long ago,
Hippocrates proclaimed, “Let food be your medicine and let medicine be your
food.”<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1819936746298703174#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""><sup><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><sup><span style="border: none; color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light';">[1]</span></sup><!--[endif]--></span></sup></a> I will now outline the
problems with (1) the food supplied by the kitchen and (2) the foods and
beverages available for snack.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<br /></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">When I came
to the unit, I met with a woman to explain my dietary needs. Both she and I can
agree that I stated that I needed a gluten free, dairy free diet. At a certain
point, probably on a later instance I believe I also told her I would like
kosher meat. I most emphatically told the Executive Chef later that I wanted
kosher meat and if no kosher meat was available, to please let me know if it
was not kosher so I could make my decision about whether to eat it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<br /></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I will now
explain why these three dietary concerns are important for my healing. Although
not universally acknowledge, there is significant scientific evidence that diet
is intrinsic to thde health of all and especially individuals with mental health
challenges.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 120%;">On the

conditions, please see </span><span class="Hyperlink0"><a href="http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenintolerance/a/Gluten-Bipolar-Disorder.htm"><span style="line-height: 120%;">http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenintolerance/a/Gluten-Bipolar-Disorder.htm</span></a></span><span style="line-height: 120%;">.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

bipolar individual lies in that it is a heavy, grounding food complete with
important vitamins and amino acids.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I will now

<i><span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">A student
who sat a three-month retreat that I taught was an over-zealous young karate
student seeking the extremes of spiritual intensity. Rather than follow the
instruction, he decided to get enlightened as quickly as possible . . . . he
began to experience all sorts of altered states. . . . he was very fearful and
agitated, moving in a wild and manic state, as if he had temporarily gone crazy
. . . What did we do with him? . . . We changed his diet. While everyone was
eating vegetarian food, we put him on meat loaf and hamburgers.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Kosher food
is not only important as part of my spiritual practice, it has implications for
bipolar health. When animals are killed according to Jewish rules of slaughter,
the animal feels no pain and thus does not release toxic stress hormones.

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">It has been
thus established that I and many of my co-patients would benefit from a gluten
and dairy free diet and even from kosher food. These concepts are firmly backed
by science.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I will now
share with you three of the breakfasts I received. I believe that each of these
came after my extensive meeting with the Executive Chef, who although well
intentioned and skillful could not ensure proper meals.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">No one expects
hospital food to taste good and unfortunately one rarely expects hospital food
to be that nutritious. But to repeatedly violate patient requests for diets
necessary for their healing is a crime.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I absolutely
do not tolerate gluten or dairy. They both make me manic.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Other
patients had similar needs. And even though my experience in 1991 at the
University of Chicago Hospitals was negative, even there and on<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the other units I have been, my diet has been
respected.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">As you can
see, breakfast, argued by some the most important meal of the day was
compromised. Other meals were compromised. Co-patients of mine who were gluten
free were given gluten pasta. A patient who begged for quinoa got it sometimes
but also received moldy broccoli. When I got meat I was not informed whether it
was kosher or not. The Executive Chef had stated that finding kosher meat might
be difficult. I did receive one glorious meal of chicken and veg in two large
containers. I ate one container and the staff said I might have the other
later. But because of the hullabaloo involving <a href="http://badpsychward.blogspot.com/2015/11/vulnerable-patients-exposed-to-violent.html">the violent patient</a>, they
discarded my meal as it had been out too long, leaving me quite hungry.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<br /></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">A patient,
especially one recently arrived should not have to constantly send back for a
proper breakfast and many of my co-patients were not as empowered as I. For
patients with a gluten problem, the wrong meal is not merely manic inducing as
was mine, but can be life-threatening. The kitchen blamed the person who took
down our dietary information and that person blamed the kitchen or sometimes
the person temporarily in charge of the kitchen was blamed. It does not matter
whose fault it was: patients on the ITU were consistently exposed to harmful
and potentially lethal food. This is the second reason why some form of
compensation is in order and why the unit needs to be shut down.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">The water
from the water fountain had an off-taste and co-patients informed me it was
probably recycled although I have no direct evidence. As a result I stuck with
the hot water but again not all patients had the wherewithal to do so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The following are the snacks that I can
recall:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 120%;">I did enjoy
the fruit but I also was very hungry. Seroquel, the drug administered to me in
fact leads to increased hunger. I did not have a single gluten or dairy free
option for carbs and protein. And as apple juice was sometimes out, if I wanted
juice it was going to be with substantial sugar, a substance that science has
shown to be damaging and needless to say is especially damaging to the bipolar
individual — see </span><a href="http://bipolar.newlifeoutlook.com/sugar-bipolar/"><span class="Hyperlink0"><span style="line-height: 120%;">http://bipolar.newlifeoutlook.com/sugar-bipolar/</span></span></a><span style="line-height: 120%;">. I note here also that one of my

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">I can
acknowledge literally that today’s ECT is not my grandmother’s ECT as my
grandmother suffered profound memory loss when she was given Electroconvulsive
therapy. And I believe my hero Kay Redfield Jamison said somewhere she would be
willing to undergo it in cases of extreme depression. It obviously can be an
effective treatment for some — see </span><a href="http://www.webmd.com/depression/guide/electroconvulsive-therapy"><span class="Hyperlink0"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">http://www.webmd.com/depression/guide/electroconvulsive-therapy</span></span></a><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">. However, I have never been in an
inpatient ward where it seems to be being employed so frequently. I do not have
the medical authority to judge whether my co-patient’s depressions warranted
the treatment or not. I can say that it seemed unusually common as a treatment
and that a person of some authority who is familiar with the unit told me that
it was believed by many that this for-profit hospital was using the treatment
excessively in an attempt to help cover the costs of the equipment although the CEO whom I spoke to recently said this is not so and she may correct, <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;">But ECT is no harmless treatment. Read all about how it can still <a href="http://www.queenslandmentalhealth.com/long-term-effects-of-ect-on-memory-personality/">cause long term memory damage</a>- </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Apparently
you have to fast 20 hours before you have the treatment. One day as a
co-patient was waiting for his/her treatment, the treatment was delayed.
Watching this person experiencing full on starvation was painful enough — and
fasting is entirely contraindicated for someone with a mental condition. It is
no wonder that the great bipolar genius Virginia Woolf who was most insightful
into her condition pointed out that one of the best ways to work against mania
was to eat continuously, a statement supported by Ayurveda and probably by most
Western physicians as well for anyone with issues of psychosis. As time went on
and on, the co-patient suffered and suffered. I myself broke down and begged
the nursing station staff to help. Why coudn’t they just let her/him eat and
skip it? My co-patient also confided to me that he/she did not want to undergo
ECT anymore but was afraid that if he/she refused, she/he would be sanctioned.
I beg CPH to please stop forcing ECT on people who don’t want it!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">ECT is also abused elsewhere!!!!!! This is a story from Australia https://www.change.org/p/help-save-garth-daniels-from-brutal-electric-shocks-and-toxic-brain-chemicals</span><br />

<div class="rte js-description-content" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255) !important; box-sizing: border-box;">
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em;">
Stop Garth Daniels from violent, forced and life-threatening mental health treatment in the State MHS. Return him to a caring family situation and implementing a nonviolent, humane management plan and treatment. This will <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">immediately</em> & significantly improve Garth's quality of life, and most probably also save him from self-harm or being harmed by other patients - and save you, the taxpayer, upwards of $1 million per year.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
Garth Daniels has been in and out of state psychiatric hospitals for the last 20 years. He is now 40. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
He has been seen by a huge number of psychiatrists and possibly by more than any other patient in the history of psychiatry in Australia. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
The direct costs of his treatment are in the order of $1.5 million per year of taxpayers’ money. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
A recent private, independent psychiatric report concluded that Garth Daniels does not have schizoaffective disorder and although he has been subjected to 2 decades of standard treatment for schizophrenia (including forced electric shock therapy, harmful psychotropic drugs and forced bed restraints) he has totally failed to respond in any predictable way. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
Once in hospital, he is given drugs that cause him incredible distress and so his reaction is to panic and become hostile. This is misconstrued that he is a violent person. Allegations of violence are perpetuated in the hospital... which is a direct result of inappropriate management. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
The general consensus of people who know Garth well - and the private psychiatric report mentioned above supports this view – is that he is a shy person with significant interpersonal anxiety. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
He is not a violent man and he is definitely not a criminal. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
Garth Daniels has an Advanced Statement (dated 19 09 2014) in which he explicitly stated that “I do not consent to ECT under any circumstances – lesions in left lateral ventricle/ memory problems. I do not consent to clozapine due to high cardiac risk – enlarged ventricle – adverse reactions”. And yet the treating staff continue to ignore Garth’s legal wishes and the wishes of his father Bernard, who has medical power of attorney. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
His current treating staff have run out of options... recycling failed treatments... but refuse to accept the views of the patient Garth and the medical power of attorney Garth assigned to his dad. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
There are alternative, less restrictive management and treatment options ...but, the hospital services refuse to change their destructive path of damaging Garth’s brain.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
They also want to take over the Guardianship of Garth’s affairs! If this happens his treatment will be even more secretive. Why in hells’ name would they want to do this unless they have something to hide? </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
Under the current treatment regime, Garth’s future is grim. He has been suicidal in the past and it seems unlikely that he would want to continue his current dreadful life indefinitely. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
His family and private psychiatrist believe there is only one other realistic life-saving possibility for Garth - that his management should be transferred immediately to a psychiatrist with particular expertise in managing withdrawal from psychotropic drugs, in conjunction with psychological management of his anxiety problems. It is painfully obvious that the psychiatric hospital / State mental health system is not able to provide this form of management or duty of care. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.50001; margin-bottom: 1.25em; margin-top: 1.25em;">
We request that Garth Daniels be transferred immediately to the care and treatment of the private psychiatrist/ psychologist that his family have recommended. </div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #363135; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem;">We strongly believe that Garth Daniels life is currently at risk from either suicide or the effects of his forced, brutal treatment in hospital.</span> abused elsewhere!</span><br />

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT GUEST POST<br />
<br />
TO PROTECT HER, HER NAME IS BEING WITHHELD<br />
<br />
I SALUTE HER COURAGE IN TELLING HER STORY HERE<br />
<br />
CENTENNIAL PEAKS MUST BE SHUT DOWN -- NOW!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">I was committed to CPH the first time a few years back to start a course of ECT because I simply could not get any recovery from severe depression after managing for 40 years to avoid the twin indignities of being locked up in a mental hospital and having my brain fried. They lied about the process and the aftereffects. The first time I had it, I peed my pants and was forced to pull off my wet clothing and stand half naked in a room full of waiting staff and patients of both sexes to put on scrubs. The only nod toward my privacy and common decency was to allow me to turn my back so they got only a great view of my bare ass instead of my crotch. I was too dazed and confused to object, so they blatantly took advantage of that instead of troubling themselves to walk me to the bathroom 6 feet away with a FEMALE staff member. I am an over-60 year old woman!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">I got committed there again more recently when I was also diagnosed with dementia in addition to BPDll. I lost my job because I could not perform the sophisticated work anymore, lost 45% of my IQ points, can no longer express myself well, can’t perform any hobby activities, can’t read well, can’t write without multiple rewrites (I have always been able to write each piece ONCE, perfectly) and face a future of sitting in a pile of shit, drooling down my face. I accidently let it slip to a counselor in Boulder that I preferred to die and they sent me to this hell hole to punish me for admitting that.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">They locked me up on a ward full of addicts because they obviously lied and claimed to have a mental health unit bed available. I worked in addictions for years and observed very large numbers of people who checked themselves in to avoid prosecution, avoid paying child support, have an excuse to quit working, manipulate spouses, become better addicts, decrease the amount of drugs they need for a while, nor just take all-expense-paid vacation on somebody else’s dime. It was no different here, given the laughing, gaming and partying that went on all evening long. Aside from all that, I’m not an addict and shouldn’t have been stuck in there under any circumstances. I RAN much bigger, better, and professional programs for 30 years.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">They sat me on a metal and plastic chair in a hallway in a hospital gown, in full view of EVERYONE, including men, freezing, for an hour and a half. No one even bothered to speak with me though I was crying constantly. (One male patient expressed his concern for my humiliation. NO staff member did.) They didn’t even bother to give me a drink of water, a robe or a blanket to cover myself.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">Eventually, they proceeded to make me stand up with my butt hanging out (I am a 60+ year old woman!) to weigh and measure me for the entertainment of a ward-full of people, male and female. I objected as well as I could given my state but they didn’t care and refused to stop. They mocked me for my embarrassment. (“NOBODY CARES WHAT OTHER PEOPLE WEIGH ANYWAY!” Nyah nyah nyah.) Did you ever get to be the fat kid shamed by the school nurse by being weighed and measured in front of the whole school? They thoroughly enjoyed publicly humiliating a geriatric mentally ill demented woman.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">They kept me there for almost two days with no treatment and refused to provide any vegetarian food. I placed a call to the patient “advocate” who despite my 11 day stay there, NEVER showed up at all. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">A couple of addiction counselors showed up to interview me, obviously having not troubled themselves to read the record ahead of time or they would have known that I was being warehoused there and was not an addict at all.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">When they eventually transferred me to the mental health unit, the staff STILL never bothered to even talk to me about why I was there. The whole time I was there, ONLY ONE STAFF MEMBER ever even bothered to listen to me (and pointed out to me that she only had 5 minutes “to spare!”) to even hear my circumstances, and that was only after I laid in bed and sobbed for an entire shift. Neither she nor any other staff member ever asked me again how I was doing other than in casual, passing remarks.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">They continued their cruel and unprofessional practice of weighing, measuring and taking vital signs in public with a bunch of patients sitting in a row watching the whole process. I am mentally ill, therefore I deserve to be shamed, right?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">They provide NO therapy at all. (Oops, they did have coloring books!)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">You see a random psychiatrist for <i>MAYBE</i> 5-7 minutes a day to answer a couple of yes or no questions of THEIR choosing. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">To trick insurance companies, government agencies and hospital accreditation organizations, they schedule moronic classes during the day, which are also NOT any type of therapy. The content might be appropriate life-skills training for very stupid 10 year olds. The whole thrust of these classes is that if you weren’t too stupid and incompetent to run your own life, you wouldn’t have been locked up in here. So much for the medical model of mental illness. I asked both of the psychiatrists WTF I had to do to get out of that place and they both told me to attend these stupid piece-of-shit, social work 101 classes. I asked THEM if either one had ever bothered to actually attend this crap they are peddling but they refused to answer and got defensive.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">Only ONE of the “mental health professionals” (read that “NO real professional qualifications”) ever sat with and talked to any patients at all, and he limited that to the partying, smoking loud-mouthed moochers.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The unit was packed with a bunch of Medicaid frauds who were definitely NOT depressed at all, but were mostly frequent flyers who check their butts into the place for free food and a vacation. (Free to THEM of course since I WORKED my whole life for the privilege of paying for medical insurance, taxes and then paying thousands of dollars in copays to subsidize their free vacations. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The majority of them of them laughed, played games and partied loudly all evening, every evening and showed absolutely NO signs of depression. I believe there were a total of 4 people over an 11 day period who were not malingering. Even the staff at that place could not possibly be stupid enough to be unaware of that. But as long as they get to keep sucking money out of the pockets of working people, they’ll keep these frauds as long as they can. Did any member of the staff EVER quiet down their screeching, squealing and laughter? OF COURSE NOT! Those of us who were actually suffering were totally disregarded and trampled. Interestingly, these oh-so-poor public assistance guests that I ended up paying for were with two exceptions well able to afford to burn up my tax money in cigarettes at $6.00/pack and got the privilege of stinking up the only outdoor area with smoke, making breathing non-carcinogenic air too damn much for the rest of us to expect.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The place itself is crappy and tacky with dirty plastic and metal chairs that lack even basic comfort for people who aren’t allowed to do anything except sit in them all day. Those nasty germy things were NEVER sanitized. There is not one comfortable, decent-quality piece of furniture in the place except under the MDs’ butts. The beds are not much better than jail cots.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">In 11 days, my room was NEVER swept or mopped and the bathroom was never cleaned-NOT ONCE-despite the fact that I was forced to share it. At almost $2000/day, they could cut loose and buy some Pine Sol. <i>Interestingly though, </i>when I approached the desk to ask the ”nurse” (I’d be surprised if she were a real one) a question, I was snapped at, ordered to step away from the desk and <b><i>reprimanded</i></b> for touching the desk and spreading germs. Other patients were treated the same way. Guess they can’t extract big enough copays for antibacterial wipes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">There were three vegetarian/vegan persons on the unit but the hole refused to provide appropriate meals. When I asked what the vegetarian protein source was for one meal, the employee poked his fork at a piece of broccoli with a sprinkle of cheese on it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The three of us ate virtually nothing because we could not be sure whether ANYTHING was animal-flesh free and because the rest of the food looked like previous patients had already eaten it. NOBODY cared. I personally mentioned this to 2 different psychiatrists on 3 separate occasions, to nurses and “mental health counselors,” and left messages for the patient “advocate”[sic] but the imaginary advocate never contacted me and none of them did anything about it. The other two persons also complained and were ignored as well. This was particularly problematic because if you are scheduled for ECT, they are supposed to send a snack late in the evening since you cannot eat in the morning before the procedure regardless of how late they take you, and they don’t give a rat’s ass how ill they make you waiting. What did they send? Animal carcass sandwiches. Once they sent a "vegetarian meal" – a half of a dry curled up raw pepper. The three of us asked for a less-disgusting alternative but were told that they <b><i>"couldn’t find any other food!</i></b>" And ONCE AGAIN, no patient advocate ever showed up at all, and NONE of the staff would do a damn thing to fix this.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">This scummy place also forces ADULTS to LINE UP in the hall like little children to march to and from dinner. They liked to make everyone line up early and then just stand there and wait until someone got good and ready to escort us. Lots of respect for our dignity, right? They have excellent passive-aggressive skills.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">All night long, every night, the staff members stomped on and off the unit slamming the double fire doors behind themselves. Complained to the psychiatrists but again, too damn bad. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The unit was kept so cold that patients had to sit around wrapped in blankets all the time. Did any staff member give a rat’s ass about this absurd situation? No, of course not. People were sleeping under multiple (3-5) blankets, but that place is way too cheap to provide adequate central heating apparently! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">I approached the desk once to ask the ”nurse” (I’d be surprised if she were a real one) a question and was snapped at and <b><i>reprimanded</i></b> for touching the desk and told to step back because I was spreading germs.

<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">I was eventually was forced to acquiesce to ECT a second time to get out of there. They make a point of SAYING they are not there to pressure anyone into it, but they just won’t let you leave, and since they don’t provide any other treatment, you have no choice. (Read that: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) Once you’ve submitted, you can’t stop because your will is fried right out of your brain. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">When I said I would leave AMA, they threatened to tell the insurance company so they would refuse to pay for the WHOLE stay and said they would go after me for it. I was tricked into signing financial commitment papers when I was not competent to do so.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">I woke up with a terrible, terrible headache after the first brain-fry, crying and holding my head in pain. They still made me get off of the bed before I was ready and sit in a hard metal and plastic chair where I couldn’t even sit upright, hunched over, neck twisted and trying to avoid breathing because it hurt too much. They kept checking in every few minutes to see if I was ready to leave. I wasn’t, but they kept at it because the next person on the assembly line needed to get out of bed and sit up so the NEXT cog could lie down so I just submitted. I don’t blame the staff on that particular service for this. They are being forced to provide substandard care to shove as many money-paying victims through as fast as they can.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.97333335876465px;">The aftereffects of the ECT left me as dumb as a box of rocks for well over 6 months though they promised me that the memory problems were short-lived and were around for only the time of the frying. That is bullshit. The smoke never really cleared. The decrement is broader, deeper and has permanent effects. Do they really not KNOW this, or are they just lying to trick sick people out of their money? Or maybe they just prefer to believe other self-serving doctors instead of their patients.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">You'd be surprised. People who have been recently psychotic like being aware of what medications they are taking and why as much as those of you who don't have freaky mystical experiences to share with your friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This incident broke my heart.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">One of the patients was sobbing. They had given her Cogentin (Benzatropine) without the antipsychotic Haldol (Haloperidol) it usually
accompanied as a side-effect reducer. No one thought to tell her why. She didn't even know what each of the medications were doing. She was very frightened and disempowered.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I and another patient answered her questions best we could and we agreed it was strange.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Was the absence of Haldol another mistake? Maybe. But could they have at least let her know what was going on. Didn't that <a href="http://badpsychward.blogspot.com/2015/11/hippocratic-oath-not-followed-by.html">Hippocrates person</a> say something about involving the patient in their own care? What gives these facilities the arrogance to think that they know better than us about what we need and need to know?</span><br />

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;">Altogether the ITU has fouled up horribly in 4 out of 5 of my medications (Seroquel was the only one they got right.) It also did not bother to find out what medications and supplements I was currently taking, something that is standard procedure in just about every doctor’s office and something that my husband and psychiatrist could have testified about. Even in mania, I would have been capable as well.</span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
Psych wards as a whole have no excuse to be aware of the cheaper, less damaging and highly effective effects of vitamins, minerals and amino acids even when dealing with acute situations. I actually do not disagree with being given an initial anti-psychotic given my particular situation, but then next thing I would do if I were a doctor would be to have an aggressive nutritional approach.</div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;">There is also absolutely no reason for the unit not </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">to provide patients with supplements such as Vitamin C, Zinc, Magnesium and B-3, each of which can by themselves turn around mania according to Edelman’s book and my own personal experience. All of these substances should have been in their pharmacy and if they are not, then it looks like the pharmacy needs an overhaul as well. They should have 5HTP on tap too because for some like me it beats all sleep medicines in its sedative qualities. But of course the doctor I mentioned to it had no clue about what it was. </span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">It's a shame he didn't know. 5HTP is not for everyone but it is special because it a very direct route for making more serotonin. Other methods like l-tryptophan are still competing with other amino acids that you ingest. For folks like me who crank out high levels of dopamine a counterbalance is achieved very nicely with the fast influx of serotonin. </span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">You do not, ever ever stop someone cold turkey on Lithium. But that is just what Centennial Peaks did. This was the reason I had to get myself out of there as soon as I could. So I could take the meds I needed. Shocking? Yes. Here's the story.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 120%;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 120%;">As chronicled in Eva Edelman’s volume, <i>Natural Healing for Bipolar Disorder</i>, just about every bipolar person and arguably most people need some kind
of lithium in their diet. <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/14/opinion/sunday/should-we-all-take-a-bit-of-lithium.html?_r=0.">Countries with higher lithium in their water tend to have fewer people with mental illness </a></span><span style="line-height: 120%;">As Edelman’s book shows, lithium
orotate is a more bioavailable form than the typical lithium carbonate and is
highly recommended as it is more powerful at smaller dosages. Lithium is
amazing medicine, </span><span style="line-height: 120%;">and when in
the orotate form that is safer, it is still the gold standard for bipolar
disorder. Seroquel can stop the mania, but it is lithium that maintains the
balance and is the <a href="http://www.webmd.com/bipolar-disorder/news/20030916/lithium-best-to-stop-bipolar-suicide.">best medication for bipolar proven to prevent suicide </a>— </span><span style="line-height: 120%;"> It is known that bipolar patients
who have recently experienced mania are at higher risk for suicide.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">Patients are
always told that they should never never suddenly stop taking lithium.
According to the WebMd page on lithium carbonate,<i> Stopping lithium therapy
suddenly increases the chance that symptoms of bipolar disorder will return.
The dose of lithium should be reduced gradually over at least 14 days.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">Yet, I was
denied access to lithium, a drug I have been faithfully been taking since May
12, 1991. This is about as criminal as denying insulin to a diabetic.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">The unit
allowed me to take my usual dosage of Lithium Orotate for one night and then
decided to stop it because the lab could not ascertain whether the pills were
in fact lithium orotate. Very well,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">the unit has
that right. But did they offer me any other form of lithium from their
well-stocked pharmacy? No, they did not.<i><o:p></o:p></i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large; line-height: 120%;">We have now left the realm of mere stupidity and have entered the realm of MALPRACTICE.</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 120%;"> </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Did you know that fish oil was so effective in helping bipolar patients that the <a href="http://archpsyc.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=204999">original study</a> by Andrew Stoll at McLean hospital was stopped short because it was just unethical to deprive the control group of fish oil? Sure there have been further studies saying this and that but my life changed when I started taking fish oil in 1999. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But there are so important coniderations with fish oil. The first is sourcing. The cheap stuff you can buy could be tainted with all kinds of heavy metals. That is why (and I have no connection to the company) I always go with Nordic Naturals which is third party tested and comes from fish low on the food chain. The other is dosage. One pill is not going to do much for ya. In the original study the patients took 10 grams. I myself take 8 grams after some 14 years of trial and error. I would say that I need at least 6 grams to sense a meaningful difference.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What did Centennial Peaks do?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">They offered me just one gram. I could also tell that the brand they gave me was not Nordic Naturals.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm guessing it was probably some cheap stuff not sourced well, but I do not know. So perhaps it was better after
all that they did not give me the correct dosage.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Tell me oh tell me do you think the doctors at Centennial have read the Stoll study? Do they appreciate the significance of fish oil fully? Do they care?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Blood pressure is an interesting thing. When it gets really high (and Seroquel can cause this), the temporary use of Western medicine can be helpful especially if like me you may have compromised kidneys. But not all blood pressure meds are alike. You don't just throw one of them at someone without research. Here's the story of me and the wrong blood pressure med at Centennial.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It was like this. They told me that they wanted me to take Coreg. No explanation as to why they chose this particular medication. I told them that my kidney doctor and my psychiatrist had determined that the best high pressure med for me was Verapimil. But of course why listen to a patient? So I figured that I should at least research this Coreg. I asked the nurse present to please get a PDR (Physician Drug Reference -- it's like the bible for medications that is used by doctors). She got me the equivalent. Sure enough I read about it and found two reasons that made it a nonoptimal choice for me: 1) it was not good for my blood sugar, already compromised by Seroquel and 2) it was not indicated for someone with kidney issues like myself.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">From this short story we learn that there is no scrupulous intelligent thought process governing meds at Centennial Peaks. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The wrong meds I was given at Centennial for a UTI destroyed the good bacteria in my gut (the last thing you want to do to someone with a mental health challenge) without actually addressing the UTI because they did not ask me some basic questions.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
I only found out subsequent to my stay from the written records that they had given me the antibiotic Bactrim for a UTI.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
If they had informed me, I could have told them the following even in a psychotic state:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
1) I almost always have a elevated level of <i>e.coli </i>in my bladder. It does not reach the kidneys. In this case, it was better not to treat it with antibiotics at this time because most of one's serotonin (an essential neurotransmitter very important for bipolar stability is created in the gut.)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
2) The last few times I did take antibiotics for UTI, my cultures were resistant to Bactrim. Bactrim was definitely the wrong choice if one were to go the antibiotic route.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
3) If they are going to go that route, it is essential to give me a probiotic to save my intestinal flora.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Perhaps the greatest negligence at Centennial Peaks involved medication. They did not give me the meds I needed, tried to give me meds that were harmful for me and did not ask me the basic questions that would have led to proper meds. This aspect of my exposé alone is a reason to shut down this incompetent and harmful Psych Ward.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Don't you think a Psych Ward would do everything it can to help their patients sleep? Especially since there is such a strong link between sleep hygience and mental health. Apparently not!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I have been
diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. Since 2010 I have used a device known
as a CPAP nightly which by forcing air down my lungs has done wonders for my
sleep. Most people would agree that sleep is essential for one’s health and and my stability in general and many might also know that individuals with psychiatric challenges
especially benefit from good sleep. But fewer would know that sleep apnea is in
fact linked to Bipolar Disorder.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1819936746298703174#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn1;" title=""><sup><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><sup><span style="border: none; color: black; font-family: "helvetica neue light";">[1]</span></sup><!--[endif]--></span></sup></a> Therefore it would seem that

<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Although my
husband dropped the machine off with a clear label for affixing, I did not
receive the device for several days. At first they claimed they did not know it
was mine. Then they claimed they found me sleeping without snoring and decided
I did not need it after all. In blog posts on medication and supplements I
will go into further depth that by denying me an appropriate dose of lithium,
fish oil as well as 5HTP my sleep and thus my mental health was further
compromised, lengthening my stay in the unit.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="font-size: large;">At Centennial Peaks it is hard for non-smokers to get fresh air!</span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I do not
think it is necessary to demonstrate the importance of fresh air and natural sunlight
for anyone’s health and particularly for patients with psychiatric challenges.
European sanitariums and even the famous MacLean hospital in Massachusetts use
nature as healing. However, just as with prison inmates, patients do not have
full privileges initially.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1819936746298703174#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn1;" title=""><sup><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><sup><span style="border: none; color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light';">[1]</span></sup><!--[endif]--></span></sup></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="Addressee">
<span style="line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Until the
patient has seen a doctor, they are not allowed outside to the courtyard with
the basketball court. And even so this access is highly limited (once a day it
seemed) in comparison with the the number of times in which smokers are permitted
outside during the numerous smoke breaks (at least four times, perhaps even
more).<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1819936746298703174#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn2;" title=""><sup><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><sup><span style="border: none; color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light';">[2]</span></sup><!--[endif]--></span></sup></a> As a non-smoker with
sensitive lungs, if I had not seen a doctor or had missed gym time, I had no
other recourse to obtain fresh air except when it is clouded with smoke. As I
explained this to a staff member with long smooth dark hair she sharply told
me, “You do have a choice.” A choice between no fresh air and polluted air? I
also begged staff to permit me a scant two minutes of fresh air before the
smokers came in and this was summarily denied.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Would you want a heart surgeon to operate on you or a loved one who did not know all the latest research? Would you want a brain surgeion to operate on you or a loved who also was not up to date?Would you want an obstetrician or midwife who was stuck in the 19th century to help you or a loved one have a baby?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The knowledge of the doctors I met at Centennial Peaks was vastly inferior to my own, a patient. They didn't even know what lithium orotate was or that Eva Edelman who is at the forefront of</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Bipolar Natural Healing considers it superior to lithium carbonate. They didn't even know anything about 5-HTP which supports Serotonin production and is one of the biggest bipolar godsends, depending on your specific profile. They didn't know that gluten free and sometimes dairy free nutrition can literally prevent or reduce mania. And they didn't know that the use of ECT, even today is far from harmless.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you don't think a mental health patient should be subjected to ignorant doctors, come and join my campaign to shutdown Centennial Peaks Acute Impatient Unit in Louisville, Colorado. And then we can target and educate all the other Bad Psych Wards.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The Hippocratic Oath is a sacred doctrine. It says that the patient is part of the healing process -- not merely someone the doctor or ward does things to. Centennial Peaks as I will describe in full imposed its treatment upon patients without their input. This must stop. It must stop in Centennial Peaks and it must stop everywhere. Without the participation of the patient, healing cannot occur.</span></div>

chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the
person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these
related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick. I will prevent
disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure. I will remember
that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow
human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm. If I do not
violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and
remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve the
finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing
those who seek my help.</span><span style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
