University Health Experience
Just need to get this out there so others can be informed. My spouse spent 6 days in the care of University Health’s Inpatient Behavioral Health center and it was the worst experience of a lifetime.
Obviously it’s already emotionally hard on the whole family for this inpatient stay to be happening in the first place but University Health should be embarrassed for the “care” they provided.
The amount of communication between the family and University Health was essentially zero. My spouse consented to the sharing of health information with myself and her mother but the hospital would share NOTHING with us at all. Not even something as simple as a “she’s doing ok”.
The social worker would never return a call and he was supposed to be the go between for the family. He only called on the day the discharge was supposed to happen just to shared that they were going to file a court order to extend the stay by 21 days only to then call back a hour later saying she was being discharged NOW.
They also never cared to ask who my spouses current doctors were or what medication she was on. She was prescribed meds that do not interact well with what she currently takes and current health conditions she has.
My spouse is vegetarian so they just gave her 3 Ensure’s a day and maybe some rice.
So if you can control it, don’t let a loved one of yours go to University Health’s Inpatient Behavioral Health center.
