Review of Arrowhead Regional Medical Cen...

I was put in the mental facility. It was the worst...

I was put in the mental facility. It was the worst mental health facility i have ever encountered in my whole life. I was put in for suicide attempt, and I haven't talk to any of my family. When I was able to contact my mother, the nurse told me to stop crying or she was gonna take the phone away and kept interrupting my phone call. ( mind you I just survived a suicide attempt and I was emotional cause I had to explain to my mother where I was and why.) the nurses were talking bad about the fellow patients loudly, and mocking them. When they did a shift change at night, they made fun of us and judged us according to why we were there. They made fun of my last name "Jeronimo " saying "no wonder she's here, I would hate to have that last name too." I don't know what they were really implying but it made me feel less then human at that point, I felt degraded and helpless . When I was getting transferred to another facility, even the EMT said the nurses there weren't nice and had attitudes. This place is the worst and it doesn't deserve one star.
