If I could, I would give this location 0 stars. I would first and foremost like to say that parents who write reviews saying great staff are incorrect and did not get the firsthand experience in the location, so while looking at reviews skip those for they are inaccurate. This location had not focused on our wellbeing, they claimed they did but they did not. Groups were basically a bunch of kids coloring and drawing and occasionally saying something about depression. Almost never did we get to discuss things with individual therapists, and no one ever talked about what brought them into rogers. While I was there, I was completley isolated. I was unable to talk to the friends whom I had met there- who I only talked to while outside, where there was no specific groups ongoing. I was put on a peer restriction for being too attached, without ever getting to plead my side of things. Meanwhile, I had a panic attack and was sobbing and slamming my head into the wall and the nurses and staff took no procedures to stop this until it had been almost an hour. My friend was also in the same state. I had bruises on my arms from biting myself, and no one ever asked questions. I would isolate and cry in my bedroom cause I was in such a horrible place, worse than when I entered. I wanted to kill myself. I ripped open wounds when i got my stiches out. Another day around 10pm I was having a panic attack again and the nurses stuck me in a room by myself, no therapy, no help. When i tried to talk about how I felt, they told me I was wrong. Then they gave me a medication and then i passed out... The next day there was no further discussion on the nights events, same with the first time. I refused to go to meals, no one did anything or questioned it. They took me off my meds because I was too 'irritable'' and never put me back on a med. There was no discussions with me about my medications, and one night when I was terribly upset I begged to contact my parents and they told me I couldn't. I wasn't allowed to contact my father. They wouldn't even contact him for me. Not to mention, They put my friend on a medication she was allergic to, and didn't discuss this with her parents. Again, do not send your children here. When I was there,, one of my known triggers were yelling and around room time me and a friend were walking and talking on the way to our rooms, when i turned into my room a nurse SCREAMED at the top of her lungs "STOP RIGHT THERE! RIGHT NOW SAWYER!" and i was shaking terrified and they swore up and down that my friend gave me something, when he didn't. I emptied my pockets and there clearly was nothing, and they proceeded to later that night put me and that friend on a peer restriction for ' recent problems ' (aka when they thought we gave eachother something.) i did nothing but cry and scratch myself and bite myself the rest of my stay.
