Loma Linda University Behavioral Health Institute, Redlands CA

Went to the inpatient program for teens. I voluntarily checked myself in to get my severe OCD and depression treated. This place did NOT help in the slightest. One thing I remember is the little to no care the staff had for patients. So many people were crying or having a breakdown (myself included), and not a single nurse, therapist, or doctor checked on us. I saw a doctor only ONE TIME, out of the 7 days I spent there. When asking to see the doctors, I was always told that they were too busy. When discharged, they told me I was "attention seeking" when it came to my intrusive OCD thoughts or depression. I didn't have any history of self harm like other patients, so they told me I didn't show any signs of depression. Luckily I was diagnosed by a proper psychologist after leaving the hospital, and surprise surprise, they misdiagnosed me and sent me home with the trauma from seeing other patients in so much pain and a bottle of antidepressants. If you choose to voluntarily admit yourself, this is NOT the right hospital. Steer clear of this hospital if you are looking for actual treatment and plan.

Horrible place to go to I got transferred here and it was so draining the people there didn’t care about the people I was on my period and I didn’t have no pads and I asked for a pad and some underwear and they would be like give me second and they never gave me anything after asking multiple times and days I was stuck with the same underwear for the whole I was there they didn’t let me contact my parents and they would let the people there yell at you
