The rooms were locked most of the day, so we could only go to the day room, which was tiny, and the classroom for meals.
They didn't have a proper seclusion room, so if someone acted out, they took them down right there in front of everyone. One guy had gotten the booty juice so many times that he required two injections to knock him out.
There was no glass around the nurses' station, so the little kids climbed over the counter all the time.
Oh, and they didn't separate the little kids from the teenagers.
One of the little girls there didn't speak any English except swear words and would run around hitting people, pulling down girls' shirts, and shoving two fingers up girls' crotches.
At another hospital, I met a girl who had been to the sh*tty one. She walked in on a girl giving a guy a BJ. In a place that had like no privacy. She was 13 at the time.
The group therapy was so pathetic that they required everyone to talk at least once and say a chant at the end. It went something like "At the end of group we say 'unity'. This is because we are a community. On the count of three, everyone say 'unity'. 1, 2, 3 'UNITY'."
Very trippy. Very depressing. Thankfully my dad AMA'd me before the end of the week.

I was looking through the patient manual from this hospital and came accross the "privileges" section, which includes the following:
Quote:
Privileges:
A. To be a patient in the Adolescent Treatment Program.
B. Meals in the kitchen on the unit.
C. May receive phone calls from parents at designated
phone times.
D. May make phone calls to personal physician, lawyer and
other appropriate representatives of the judicial system.
E. On-grounds activities as approved by staff.
F. Only parents may visit.

Nice... So these things aren't even "rights", they're "privileges".
EDIT: And you can't place any phone calls to non-legal personel. You also can't have any visitors besides your parents... You get one phone call a day.
