Sandhills center Reviews

I've never been treated here but I got information from one of the therapist to better help my son that was very helpful

Very disappointed in the service and care that was not received. Not only do the workers coverup for their friends but the supervisors do as well. I was dealing with a caseworker named Jessica who was a good friend of April the lady who was suppose to be taking care of my disabled sister. Jessica knowing looked the other way as my sister was being over medicated and neglected by April. April is over M & S Supervised Living. April over medicated my sister so much for so long that she no longer walks due to being given sedation medication 5 to 6 times a day. When I spoke with Jessica about the medication list that was sent to us by April, Jessica admitted that my sister was on a lot of medication and that even she would not be able to walk or function being on all those medication. Shortly after my sister was moved from the care of April. April documented that my sister was around 170 pounds. Months later when I asked how much she weighted, via email April responded 130-140 pounds. A couple of weeks after that email, my sister was removed and taken to the doctor where she barely weighed 115 pounds. Jessica is apart of Sandhill so we reached out the the supervisor who still seemed to side with her employees instead of the helpless disabled individual whom had been starved, abused (which was found out when she was picked up by the bruises on her body), neglected, and overmedicated. April only wanted the money that came with my sister and for years Sandhills allowed it because they want the money to and also because they are friends with disgusting individuals who run places like M & S Supervised Living. Sandhills does a lot of underhanded things and are know for writing documents and wording them so that the blame we be on the family instead of the people they work for. I hate to think of all the disabled clients that they are working with now who families are not involved if they do this to the families who wants to be involved. I wish my sister could speak because there would be a lot of people in jail right now for what they have put her through.

its funny because sandhills told me they sued the state because the state was miss treating mentally ill people so who sues sandhills for doing the exact same thing!

I didn't know that this was the same thing as Monarch. This provider treats every person as a drug-seeker. They also withhold medications found on the WHO's list of essential medications. I'm not sure that is legal. I'm certain it isn't ethical. They seem to be only concerned with the maintenance of schizophrenics. If you can, go somewhere else. Nobody is interested in helping people here.

Sandhills need to hire new people that actually care about people! Maybe some care, while others don't. I tried to seek help, and was treated like I didn't matter. They didn't listen to the concerns I was telling them I was having. I was provided very poor service by one of the workers there.

Monarch/Sandhills is a great resource for local residents, though it is necessarily subject to the same restrictions as all government run service agencies. As such, wait times may be long, and navigating services is often confusing. The providers at this location, however, are accommodating, caring, and dedicated.

My husband went to seek mental health services himself (not court ordered). We are located over 30 minutes away. We have went 6 different times and he actually spoke to someone 1 out of 6! They did not take him seriously. He was not there to get medication handed to him. He genuinely wants help! It was a pretty discouraging experience when you basically beg for help, but no one WILL help! Finally, after going 6 times with no change or anyone willing to help we are seeking elsewhere to go! It s sad it is so hard to find an organization that s willing to go above and beyond to help with any mental illness.
