Review of Vista East Medical Center

Was admitted to this hospital on Thanksgiving of 2...

Was admitted to this hospital on Thanksgiving of 2018 after a suicide attempt. My treatment here was so poor that not only did my suicidal thoughts and actions increase, I decided to refuse a supposedly 'life-saving' treatment in an attempt to be kicked out or just die in the hospital. I spent 1 day in the er and 8 days in the psychiatric wing. With the exception of my last nurse who was brand new, all of my nurses were rude, cold, and disinterested in being helpful at all. My doctor laughed in my face when I told her that I wasn't comfortable with my treatment and wanted to be transferred, stating that there is no reason for me to want that as their treatment was of a high enough standard.

I was fine with just using Word of mouth to spread my disdain for this hospital, which I did, except for the past few days I've been having nightmares of being forced into this hospital. Where I relive all my poor treatment by this staff. My mental health has been way better since then, but the fact that it's apparently a huge fear of mine to return here and I don't even live in the state anymore made me decide tto write this review, in case anyone else is thinking of making the same horrible decision my friend made when he called this hospital to help me.

Edit: I contracted a blood infection, that I was told only had an iv treatment, which I had to stay in the hospital for all that time(was told 3 weeks). When I was transferred to another hospital, I was told there was an oral treatment and released two days later. So either I was lied to by my doctors or they were too incompetent to find this treatment.
