Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services Reviews

I was there for 5 days. Some of the staff were very caring and patient, but there were also staff that lacked compassion and patience. Some staff treated me like a child in time out. Eating in the cafeteria to them is a prvilage that is earned by making every group all day if you miss one group you lose the privilege to eat in the cafeteria. I felt like this was wrong and kind of degrading. There is NO counseling available you see a therapist one time and its maybe 5 or ten minutes when you first get there. You see your doctor for less than that. The positive for me was I was able to get back on my medication and was able to get away from everything so I could clear my head.

I Do not recommend Pine Grove Womens Center to anyone EVER! My therapist was amazing, she no longer works there, the dietitian was wonderful. They LIED to me multiple times about my treatment and it being covered by insurance. I was charged over 70,000 out of pocket because of the lying and manipulation. When I finally asked to leave STEPHANE SMITH told my therapist they would be LOSING money if I left 2 days early... which was 2 days before Christmas. They are all so obsessed with money they do not care about each patient as an individual. If you want to know more before entering this treatment facility, feel free to ask me any questions. I can tell you about how they literally destroyed some of our lives.

I had a friend that went to the Pine Grove Women s center. She went kicking and screaming. Did not want to go. The staff were compassionate and patient with her. Within a couple of weeks she agreed she needed to be there and she stayed and got help. We are so thankful to have her back with us. Things had gotten really bad before she left. If you need help this is the place to go.

Had to put my daughter on closed unit for multiple psychiatric concerns. Most of the nurses answered my questions but the doctor wouldn't take time to call or return a call for a patient with the mentality of an 8 year old that can not make decisions for herself. They lost her glasses from day one along with her security teddy bear. My daughter came out behaving worse than she did going in.

I m a teenager so this is about the children s and teens area. We never see the adults so if you re a parent worrying about us seeing the adults , we don t. I ll talk about the problems first, I got in trouble for laughing, when I was in the game room or whatever I had a migraine and it took a while for them to let me go take a pain killer, but they did. One worker raised their voice at me which really bothered me but I wasn t acting my best, I was playing around with my roommate . Group was alright the day room was normally pretty loud but there s a lot of us. Maybe 15 people? Not sure. Now for the good stuff. School was pretty fun there, each grade gets different work, food was pretty good and one nurse let me have a yogurt since I didn t like what we were having , you can have pie if you finished your food after lunch and dinner, outside was pretty fun, definitely wasn t terrible , plus you could go inside and color or watch a movie. Most people were kind and tried to understand that we re all in here to get the help we need, you re normally only in there for 6-14 days , 14 days is really rare. Honestly I was really lucky to get there when I did it helped me a lot . If you re thinking about going there I would recommend it. I don t know about the adults but overall a great step to getting better

It was scarier than hell leaving home, going that far away and turning control of my life over to the counselors and staff, first in my addiction program, then PEP Professional Enhancement Program. I was lost, I thought my life was over, my marriage didn't have a chance, and I knew my career was in deep jeopardy. To be honest I wasn't a good patient, I didn't like what they were telling me, I rebelled, I didn't like giving them control of my life. I said some things directly to them that were mean and inappropriate. I was lashing out at the very people trying to help me. Their professionalism, compassion, experience and care fortunately came through. Today makes four years in recovery. MY REBIRTH DAY. Today I am strong in recovery, taking it one day at a time. I am back in my marriage and family, closer than ever, I am still working in my profession, and I am alive with a joy and acceptance that left me somewhere around age 8. I am sorry google plus combines 5 stars and "I loved it". I didn't love it. But I am incredibly thankful for my time and treatment there, So to David, Deb, Phillip, Leah Claire, Dr Walker, all the other counselors and staff of both programs and to the bus driver (I am sorry if forgot your name but I will never forget the positive reinforcement you gave to me hauling my behind around Hattiesburg) I am forever grateful.

horrible place, I wouldn't send my worst enemy here. Complaints were made to upper management about my stay, They laughed in my face.
Horrible. So scary that this establishment is still legally providing "care" for sick people. Again don't go here. You will regret it fully.

I believe my family member received top-notch treatment. Nice facilities, kind and caring professional staff, comprehensive program that treats the whole body with exercise, nutrition, & meditation. A lifelong alumni program offered to give you continued support. I would highly recommend this program to anyone!

Most horrible experience I have ever had. My son was admitted for detox and psychotherapy. For over three weeks I was left with little information and unable to talk with my son. No doctor ever called me. I requested a conference call with my ex-wife and the staff. They never scheduled it and also said their phones don't have conference capability. So I offered my business conference phone, but they still never scheduled.

As concerns got worse, I requested to speak to the director. Isaac talked to me briefly and once I mentioned I was recording the call, he hung up. A lower level staff called saying I need to pick my son up and they were kicking him out. I called the director again and he hung up on me twice, once screaming and pounding his fist on the table. I called the executive director and left an urgent message. They never called back. The next day I made repeated attempts and they stopped answering my calls entirely.

My ex-wife is coincidentally a Psych RN and also had similar poor experiences. Since she and I live in other states, I called the Hattiesburg Police to request they do a wellness check. They refused saying that the facility has their own private security. I called their security and they also refused to do a wellness check. Called the Sheriff, same answer. Evidently the police think that HIPPA prevents them from setting foot in the facility. So they facility is not subject to law enforcement and can do whatever they want. Called the state police..... Mississippi does not have state police.

In trying to have him transferred they said I needed to pick him up. After a brief call with my son they said he was being released immediately and they dropped him off at a closed train station in the dark of the night with homeless people sleeping all around. He ended up in a cab to now Orleans for $300.

My son's HIPPA information was purposely disclosed to other patients and he was teased by several other patients in group therapy about this HIPPA information. On another note, they have a bazaar system of having the mental health patients elect their own leaders and they kinda run the show rather than the staff. True anarchy in my mind. Oh, and they also took a lot of our money for this prison encampment gone wild. Thankfully, my son is being transferred to a real facility.

The best thing about Pine Grove is the staff! They really let me know that they cared about me. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, I was treated with kindness and respect. They treat all aspects of the person--physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual--very well. They also have an excellent alumni program which offers free events throughout the year to give former patients the opportunity to reconnect with their program and to interact with current patients for mutual encouragement and support. I highly recommend Pine Grove!

Didn't really give them a chance. I was there for a week, told them I was fine, and was transferred from there to a foster home. August 2009. Thinking about admitting myself there in the adult ward. Has the place gotten worse? I know the best thing about was the food.

This is an Excellent facility for treatment and long-term recovery. 5 Stars all the way around. Very professional from top to bottom. I would 100% Recommend this wonderful facility to anyone. Nate K.

I sent a family member to Pine Grove recently for residential treatment at Legacy. I was impressed from even the initial phone call. We worked with a lady Kristen who made us feel so important from the start and helped make a difficult situation easier. The staff at the program were wonderful. We got calls updating us on our loved one s progress and learned how we could help after discharge. My loved one has been able to maintain sobriety since and I would recommend this facility and program in a heartbeat. Thank you for all you have done for our family.

A family member of mine stayed here last year. When she was taken to pine grove, she had no personal belongings other than the clothes on her back. She asked if I could bring her a pair of shoes. When I brought them, I had to wait at the desk for about five minutes before anyone even acknowledged me.

The next day my aunt called saying that she never got the shoes. So I called and asked the people at the front desk who seemed to have no idea what I was talking about. Finally, someone in the background said oh these shoes that have been sitting here all day that say (my family members name) ? So at no point during the day did they stop to wonder if they should take those shoes to that person?

This place has such an incompetent staff that I do not even want to imagine what it must be like to stay there. From all my family member said, it seems like a joke. Like they re just pushing people through the place like cattle.

I have been working at Pine Grove since August of 2019, it has been a wonderful experience! All of the staff at Pine Grove are so very friendly, and really care about your needs and the health and well being of the patients. Pine Grove is a great place to work and a great place to come for treatment.

The facility is totally and completely unprofessional. My HIPPA rights were violated; my welfare was given no consideration; and, the staff is not conscientious in gathering or reporting information. Evaluations are unfair, biased and outrageously expensive! Some members of the staff demonstrated a complete lack of integrity for their profession. It is very unfortunate that they can continue to engage in practices that undermine the rights of patients. Stay away from this place. It should be closed.

I m shocked as to how unprofessional Pine Grove has treated some of its patients in the past. While there have been people that have left with great experiences, I m disheartened by some of the negative experiences I ve heard and witnessed.

The staff has a general issue with showing compassion to the patients that are admitted and have been jaded by the negative experiences brought upon by over working and a difficult job environment.

I would recommend that Pine Grove takes a hard look at the staff on site and reevaluate some of the regulations they have in place to ensure that the staff treats patients like humans rather than animals.

If Pine Grove desires to be a leading treatment facility in the state of Mississippi, there will need to be some major changes put in place to ensure that patients and families of patients are treated with respect.

The most important factor for any treatment facility should be to come as an advocate for those in need, yet I have heard and witnessed multiple instances of clear lack of respect and honor towards the career of social work and counseling.

Please take a hard look as to how some of the toxicity in the environment can be fixed!

Thank you!

This place saved my life. I'm grateful to the group of professionals that helped me through the process. I would highly recommend Pine Grove to anyone serious about getting better. It's obvious that some people didn't like hearing what they had to say. It's hard, but if you follow the process you will recover and life can be better.

Would give a zero star if that was an option. My friend was in for 5 days. He only had a pair of shorts and a shirt with him that he was wearing. I brought in clothes on a Wednesday for him. 2 days later he gets out and still never got his clothes. They claim they couldnt find them. He had to wear dirty clothes for 5 days! Unacceptable!!! Still supposably cant find his clothes. A few days before Christmas and this happens. Sad this is this isnt the first time its happened. I understand that clothes need to be checked for safety concerns, but not caring if someone has anything to wear especially when they have clothes in the facility to wear is ridiculous! Then to lose or steal their belonging is the sorriest of sorry people. First time there his bank card was stolen. Second time was new clothes from walmart. And these were now the only clothes he had to his name! Worst place ever!!!!

I went there because of a lie told by my mother. For over 24 hours they withheld my migraine meds and my inhaler for my bad lung ( which is why I went to the hospital in the the first place) They also turned over my medical records to my mother when I asked them to give them to my father. If this is standard practice for mental health care then I feel SORRY for everyone that needs help.

I am a physician 3 years sober after an injury and subsequent addiction to opiate pain pills. I needed help when I began my treatment at pine grove next step program and I am truly grateful to them for my recovery. That being said the arrogance and incompetence I experienced during my interactions with the professional enhancement program has nearly destroyed my life and career. After two years sober and practicing without issue I requested the removal of a small restriction on my practice. When I last left pine grove the recommendation was that I return for a recheck before this was removed. After my voluntary recheck it was recommended that I no longer practice medicine in any manner. When I was finally granted access to my medical records I found they had been altered a month after my visit. The contents of the records were misdated, misleading, and almost intentionally inaccurate. I was out of work for three months (not in any sort of treatment) while I worked with a lawyer, the medical board, and another rehab facility to verify my innocence and prove that I was safe to practice medicine. I am now back at work and my practice restriction has been removed but in the process pine grove cost me my professional reputation in a small town, months of income, legal and evaluation fees, and has been the single biggest threat to my health and recovery. I will now have to rebuild things again. Please do not put yourself in a situation where these people have power over your career. If you are a professional you have worked too hard to support your family for your career to be taken away. There are some good programs out there. This particular one does not have enough MD supervision and is in actuality run by a very unprofessional and poorly qualified staff.

My name is jesus gomez and i had a good time they got good food and other good stuff

I was in the Legacy program from 9/11 through 12/10 and it was a real blessing to me! The love, care, and compassion I received was incredible! The staff were very compasionate and respectful. I highly recommend this place if your are in need of it s services. The alumni association is a joy to participate with and it s great seeing and making other friends who are journeying down the road of recovery. Looking forward to being at Days of Hope in June!

Whatever you do, stay away from the Professional Enhancement Program (PEP). I went to rehab at Next Step then transferred to PEP. I went back every 6 months for 4 years. Four people in my support group went to PEP, three of us transferred. The 4th guy finally finished but they want him on life long yearly polygraphs.

After 4 years, my mental health and career were in jeopardy. I transferred to the Acumen Institue in Lawrence, KS. My stress immediately improved. Diagnosis were removed and restrictions eased. I could moonlight, easing financial stress. If you are a professional, I recommend staying away from the Pine Grove system. You could get swept into the PEP. If you are there now and in misery, call Acumen.
Good luck.

Scary as heck checking in here..they are 2500 miles from my house and highly recommended, I knew I needed to get far away from home to have the best chance of not running away..some of the negative reviews show how sick we all are when we get there...they truly helped me accept, understand and start to live with my addiction. I'll have 10 years in Sept. and it all started when I went to Pine Grove Next Step... I could not have got clean without treatment.. I used mind altering substances for over 40 years and never dealt with my emotions without self medicating.
A few things I didn't like were only seeing the Dr. once a day at most, really think it was about 3 times a week..he was a bit of a smart ass also. I had some medical issues there and the nurses always had to get his permission to give you anything..couldn't even get a antacid or a pain pill. Having to quit smoking at the same time was rough. They make you not see or talk to family for 2 weeks which is good. This is not a spa, it is a recovery center. They are trained professionals and know what they are doing, trust them and surrender to the process. I just decided to let go and do wethat they said to do, I was at the end and didn't know what else there was to do to get better. I was a mess..4 days in detox and 93 days here and I needed every minute. I'm sure if I think about it I can think of other negatives however overall they helped save my life. I would recommend them to any family who wants a loved one back from the horror of addiction. :)

P.S. They folks that gave a 3 star or less..I hope you get the help your looking for..Just surrender to the process and admit to your most inner self that you need help. We have to surrender to win. The negative comments seem to show how crazy we are in out active addiction..can't really see any that are justified if you really want to get better..the food was great..not everyone wants to be here however if you want to get better I can't think of a better place to start.

Garbage place with garbage doctors and staff. Hope they all burn in Hell!

If you really want help then this is the place to go.

I went in when I was 17 at the peak of my mental health deterioration, Besides ignoring the fact that I was....mentally ill and treating me as if I was trying to get attention, they almost killed me by giving me a medication that I had an unknown allergy to and then treated me as if I was faking when I was choking on my own tongue. After they put me to sleep with Benadryl for three days straight until they could send me to the state hospital which was the most traumatic experience of my entire life. Just expect no results for any adolescent that enters as I knew children there that had been there 12-13 times. One of the many mental health facilities that needs to change.

Great Rehab! Saved my son's life. Thank you for giving me my son back. I thank God everyday.

Proud to say, the Next Step Program for Men didn't just help me stay sober but helped me learn how to live again!

Caring and compassionate people who truly want to see people live their best life. They understand how vulnerable you feel and how frightening it can be, and every staff member I met from the janitorial services to the doctors were friendly and kind. They also emphasize total body wellness and provide stable psych patients plenty of time outside. There are fountains and walking trails. It's a beautiful campus and I had a great experience there. A small matter, but the food is also very good. Ms. Dimples, Ms. Dorinda, and so many others I can't name right right now. A topnotch facility filled with devoted and caring professionals.

Tearable staff (Malachi)
Did nothing help whatsoever

Total waste of time. My wife went there for psych assessment and 6 days and $14,000.00 later nothing but a recommendation that she come home and see her psychiatrist. Never had a psychiatrist talk to me or any family to determine what we felt was going on. They did do one thing, they changed a med and a week later she was back in a psych ward here in Mobile. I gave a one star because they don't allow you to give negative stars.

I am grateful that Pine Grove helped to give a family member a new start and opportunities for long term sobriety. As a member of the recovery community, I have benefited greatly from others that attend 12 step meetings that got the excellent help that Pine Grove offers for battling the disease of addiction.
PIne Grove is truly a hidden jewel in Mississippi!,

One of the finest organizations I have ever been a part of

I went here due to my depression, anxiety, paranoia, and PTSD. The doctors were absolutely amazing and taught me how to cope with my mental problems. The beds were comfortable, the food was good, and you re never bored! Miss Dolores was really nice and she understood what I was going through. However, Miss Shay and another woman who s usually with her wasn t very friendly. I politely asked her to call me by my nickname instead of my real name, and she rudely declined. That s why I put 4 stars instead of 5. Anyways, this place was awesome and it made me look forward to continuing my teenage years!

Horrible staff I do not recommend going to this place their food is disgusting

Next Step is standard 12 step rehab. The people are nice and it's easy; it just doesn't work very well. Stay away from the PEP program. You'll end up with more problems.

I have an extended family member that went to Pine Grove for the treatment addiction to prescription drugs. She was very reluctant to go anywhere. It took a lot of coaxing. Her immediate family visited over 6 places in the southeast before settling on Pine Grove as the place that was best for her. From the moment she got there, she was taken care of. With each week that passed, her courage and strength to face her weaknesses grew. By the time the family therapy week came around, her family was blown away by the ability she already had developed to deal with her addiction. Once the week came that she was to go home, she cried. It was emotional for her because she had grown to care for and respect those there, as well as those who worked so hard to help her face a life with confidence. She is equipped. Her mother has often said that it was the best gift she ever gave her daughter. I'm thankful for Pine Grove. They changed our lives!

I'd give this place 0 stars if I could. My son wanted help after almost dying from an overdose. He called them wanting to go there. He gave them all of his information including insurance information. They said they would call him back. They never did. Obviously they don't care! That's okay. He found a better place that cares and wanted to help! Look elsewhere!

From my experience, Pine Grove puts the highest quality patient care first and foremost, and the treatment professionals at Pine Grove are highly trained and care deeply about their patients and their recovery.

Refuses to help children unless the are actively attempting suicide or murder. My daughter is having major issues and showing red flags in addition to self inflicting injuries and physical violence toward siblings. A well has having attempted suicide within the past year. we have tried out patient with no results and these clowns said she is not aggressive enough. So much for preventative help.

Terrible terrible terrible. Food is terrible. Edible but terrible. This place drains your insurance until they cut u off. It s a hillbilly corral

WAIT UNTIL THE CONSTRUCTION IS DONE!!

This is not a review of Pine Grove, it is a warning of conditions you may experience. Pine Grove is currently renovating the main building where the offices, cafeteria, psychiatric and detox patients are housed. The patient rooms are being renovated one at a time from the outside. They are literally knocking down a section of outside wall to access each room. The door to the hallway is kept locked, but it does not keep out the construction dust, sounds, or smells.

The room adjacent to mine was under construction. A jackhammer was used throughout the day. Dust from the concrete floor that was being demolished was coming into the hallway through the gap under the locked door. It was also coming through an open vent in the wall of my room.

I complained to the staff multiple times and even spoke to the manager of the Facility, a Ms. Fran. I was told the facility was completely full. I believe she intended to express empathy when she said she could hear the noise in her own office. That office happens to be on the other side of the building on a different wing.

I could not bear being in the room until well after the crew left at 5 and the dust settled down. During this extensive time spent in the common area, I saw three other patients moved to other rooms. I hate being lied to, probably about as much as I hate snakes and other critters I was afraid would through the vent in my room still open to the woodsy outdoors.

Day 2 started with the jackhammer and dust again. The last straw was the smell of raw sewage that started to come through the vent. I left the facility. I still don't understand why the discharge was considered against medical advice. I can not imagine any ethical physician would advise a patient to inhale sewer gas, breathe asbestos dust, and enjoy the lovely sound of a jackhammer from 5 feet away as part of a treatment program.

Pine Grove has a great reputation as a treatment center, but this is wrong on so many levels.

I am still amazed that they actually billed my insurance company for the room. Actually I'm not. If the bottom line was not more important than patient health and safety, this would not be happening.

If I could give it 0 stars I would. I know they have helped many people but their protocols and truthfulness need help. We were lied to repeatedly. The rules kept changing depending on who you spoke to. I helped someone go here voluntarily on their own accord at the recommendation of a therapist I know. This person was told by Pine Grove before admitting himself that it was all voluntary and if he didn t feel he was getting the help he needed, he would not be kept against his will. After being treated liked a criminal in jail and being given medication to keep him sleeping all the time, he saw an actual doctor for maybe 5 minutes total. He got very minimal one-on-one counseling. They just wanted to put him in group therapy sessions along with keeping him medicated. When he realized their treatment wasn t what he needed and it wasn t helping him, they wouldn t let him leave. They kept buying time by saying a doctor had to sign release forms. After giving them numerous hours and opportunities to get things together, I realized they weren t going to release him. They were just postponing me. I showed up to get him out, because he wanted to leave and they were just accumulating a large bill for him to pay. I gave them an opportunity to release him without the police being called for false imprisonment. When they found out what I was doing, they then made a power play and slapped a 72 hr mandatory hold on him. In short, this place was more like a prison where he was treated like he was the bad guy and a criminal than he was helped. Be careful before you admit someone here. You may have to fight to get them out. PS his treatment had nothing to do with detox or addiction

I would recommed looking for a better facility. The counselors/therapists/and doctors were great but you only see them once a day for less than 6 minutes. Two rooms in the open unit contained -BLACK MOLD- which was not adressed. My fellow patient stated she was in her moldy room since Tuesday and was unable to shower because of the mold. My bathroom also had black mold which I didn't bother to report because the nursing staff pretty much ignores the patients.
Nurses Lisa and Gwen were an absolute horror for no reason. Nurse Lisa is a sadist. She smiled when telling me I would never be moved to the open unit (I was later told I belonged in when I was admitted), which caused me to have a mental breakdown. She then uneccesarily sedated me (all while smiling) for having a breakdown she directly caused - my significant other was to be notified for this and they never were. Nurse Gwen is lacking in bedside manner, she was rude to every patient I spoke to at the facility - including myself.

Overall I would say it was a traumatic experience that does not help someone who is already suicidal.
I do hold the doctors/therapists/and counselors in high regard, but I think you should be able to see them for a longer period of time or multiple times a day.

Overall Pine Grove is a pretty good place. You ll find staff who you absolutely love, and you ll find some you hate. They say you should talk to your therapist once a day but I stayed for 7 days and only talked to her twice.. so my stay wasn t very helpful. The food is pretty good and the beds aren t too bad. It does get cold sometimes and a lot of stuff is broken. some showers are broken, ACs, sinks, toilets, etc. But they try to get it fixed. The schedule is pretty good. you wake up around 8? (there aren t clocks in the bedrooms) and go to either the day room or the girls room. Everyone talks and plays card games until it s time for breakfast. After breakfast we go back to your designated room for a group. After group we get a snack, and get to hang out. Then we have school. After school is some free time then another group. Then snack, sometimes we go outside right before or after lunch. After lunch we have 2 groups, a snack, and then dinner. Sometimes they will let you have snack before bed but it s rare.

I didn't like this place. Staff was too busy using the restroom than helping the clients. When they were around they were arrogant and rude. This place didn't help me.

My stay at Pine Grove almost twenty years ago has had a lasting impact on my life and those around me. Not only did I learn about the nature of my problems, I was introduced to 12 step recovery. The staff and amenities made available to me changed my life tremendously!

It is very hard to fully express the gratitude I feel for the help I received from the Professional Enhancement Program at Pine Grove. It was by far the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, but the changes I have made are tremendous. The treatment team is very honest with each patient on their unhealthy patterns, and yes, sometimes it is hard to hear. However, I learned more about myself in this process than I ever have before. I can clearly see the patterns in relationships that I have repeated over and over, and I'm now making healthier choices and setting boundaries when they are needed. I worked on my trauma and family of origin issues that continued to cause problems for me, and I have learned new ways of interacting with my family, friends and coworkers so that I am able to get my needs met and ask for help. The treatment team worked hard to understand me and make recommendations that will be beneficial for me. My work situation was very complicated and they never gave up on me - they wanted to see me succeed and made sure they involved my monitoring program so that everyone was on the same page at discharge. I'm now back to work and things are much less stressful. I'm using the tools I learned at PEP every day, and as I said before, I'm forever grateful.

I was given hope for a new life. Going to treatment was the hardest, but the best thing that has ever happened to me. Pine Grove is very structured and offers an individual plan for each patient. They have one on one counseling, small group therapy and large group therapy. I was encouraged to dig deep into my emotions and work through painful life experiences. I was also taught proper communication and coping skills--which was vital to my sobriety and learned a lot about conflict resolution. The disease element of addiction was throughly discussed and helped me to understand how my brain had changed with my addiction and how an active program of recovery could help correct the negative changes. I physically was put back on track with a healthy diet, exercise, meditation and yoga. My life is forever changed because of the things I learned at Pine Grove and I am eternally grateful.

I really don't care what any of the negative reviews say, there are WAY worse places to get clean. I have the staff and program at Pine Grove Women's Center to thank for helping me save my life. Just because I didn't agree or like some of the rules (no smoking/very limited caffeine) and things I was encouraged to do, it set a solid foundation on which I have built 2.5 years of recovery. I appreciated the fact that I was getting such intensive care in an environment that didn't feel like a hospital or but house. I still go back for Days of Hope and would recommend this facility to anybody looking to get clean and sober.

Was here for a week for suicidal ideation (teen unit). It was pretty good, especially compared to other places nearby. They make a lot of good accomadations. One-on-one therapy is like 5 minutes long, I didn't really mind though. One not-so-good thing is that some of the staff didn't call me & 2 other transgender friends by our preferred names, even with parental permission. It helps while you're there but not when you leave.

I am very pleased with the quality of care my son received at Pine Grove. The staff and doctors took time to listen and understand our son, and helped us all though a difficult time in our life.
