Bloomington Meadows Hospital Reviews ( 130 )

  1. My son spent 5 days here, he is 14. After reading the reviews I was very worried but we had a great experience. Good communication, my son said all the staff were friendly. They listened to all my concerns and they were addressed. There was only 1 issues but it was addressed directly.

  2. I thought it was a good place until the third time I tried to get my daughter admitted they wouldn’t take her because of her psychosis and she is on meds from them and they were treating her at the time. Totally crazy. Nothing has changed with her since the first two times they took her

  3. I’m kinda confused here, 1 about the comments. And what the heck is truly up. I’ve had a close friend that has went there twice and once he said some crazy things. And the second time he came out like a zombie. I don’t know what to truly …

  4. Worst detox i have ever been to in my life…and i have been in different ones in 5 different states…i wouldn’t send a dog there…i like dogs too much to put them thru this place

  5. Staff is extremely rude mean.one of these rude nurse’s was one named Amy who demeaned me made me feel worse and another nurse named Tamra was so crueal they should be fired and license taken away

  6. Because my friend went there and took her stuff set her in a room and when she went to leave the doctors said mean comments and they never helped her she actually went back the next week and the week after that if they would have helped she wouldn’t have kept going back to

  7. They come out worse than when they went in half of the time. Disgusting. They don’t listen to you, and don’t seem to care about how bad your situation is, or what you know works for you. This place needs shut down honestly.

  8. Horrible place they failed to supervise and my brother was stabbed while in care! And then they had the nerve to not even provide him proper care for it, scummy place that deserves to go out of business

  9. I’ve been to 6 different hospitals multiple times for self harm, suicide attemps, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, and auditory hallucinations and this one helped me the most the staff were really nice and helpful and actually seemed to care.

  10. Worst experience of my life. DO NOT GO HERE ! Worst place to be when you need help. It makes your depression and anxiety worse than they help.

  11. This place only made things worse for my sister. Treatment plans were almost nonexistent. When the doctor finally told my sister she could go home that night he left without signing her out so she had to stay another night. Overall unprofessional and unhelpful.

  12. This place really was a great help to me, I had some real issues with substance abuse that co occured with severe depression and anxiety. They helped me detox then helped me arrange for some longer term treatment. 8.5 months clean and sober.

  13. If I could give this experience a zero I would. This place was filthy, I was lied to multiple times by staff misinformed and mistreated. This place was not a place of healing but a prison.

  14. I stayed here for a few days after overdosing, and it made things so much worse. The staff was awful, the teens in my hall were loud and out of control. they would cuss, call each other names, and throw things. Never consider sending your teen here for inpatient.

  15. Drove 2 hours away to have our son whom was suicidal turned away because self harm and not feeling like dying everyday isn’t good enough. Man was rude and not personable at all .

  16. My son was transferred here today and I can not speak with anyone past the reception desk. They keep sending me to the “nurses station” which no one ever answers nor does it even go to VM. I need communication.

  17. I was here a few years back and had a great experience the group therapy was awesome i met other people there that were struggling with the same things as me the therapy was great they had us playing basketball and doing art classes it was …

  18. There is no reason to stabilize a person in crisis without adequate aftercare. The staff is not interested in what happens after release. Consequently, the crisis returns and the person has to go back inpatient. Indiana is 44th in providing good mental health treatment for a reason.

  19. Very rude staff. Nobody ever smiled at these poor kids, and that is very sad, they need positive people surrounding them. This place does not make anything better, in my experience it makes it worse and adds on issues. There’s no communication what so ever. The food was good though.

  20. If you love your child, DO NOT let them go there. Most traumatic experience for me as a parent and I can not imagine what my kid has gone through while being there. Absolutely do not, do NOT let them go there.

  21. Don’t send family or friends here. My friend was sent here and they lied to her saying that she’ll would be out in 1 to 2 days but isn’t getting released till NEXT WEEK! They don’t do anything for there patients. She clarified that being there is making her worse. This place doesn’t care about its patients.

  22. If there was a negative option I would choose that. This place was traumatizing and de-humanized my child. I wish I never put my little girl through this terrible terrible terrible.

  23. As a caseworker I was recommended Bllomington Meadows by a colleague. So, I took a client there without knowing this place was under knew management. The client received nothing you could call treatment or.care. My belief is because this client is on medicaid. Will be avioding this place in the future. Shameful!

  24. I stayed here for several days, didn’t seem to help even a little bit. Though I am still appreciative of them already trying. The staff often cussed just as well as most or all of the patients. I must say, Options Behavioral Systems had a much bigger affect on me although the staff were strict..

  25. Went to pick up someone here, lobby was dirty, the laminated signs was sticky and looked unprofessional, the tv was dusty and broken. The wood looked worn, and needing varnished. If there is shown no pride in the lobby itself, I would hate to see the staff and hallways.

  26. This place is horrible my stepdaughter has been in here 2 times now, and both times has came out worse both times !!! They put her on medicine that was too strong for her and made her eyes jerk and twitch non stop and kept her on this while …

  27. My daughter waited more than 8 hours to be admitted here and reported the staff were abusive. She finally walked out in a very poor mental state. I am incensed that it would take this long to admit anyone to a mental ward! Completely uncceptable!

  28. Very rude disrespectful and unprofessional. A family members appointment was at 1 didnt ger called back until after 2 and the lady laughed at my family member. Then they told us that they would come talk to her in about 15 mins and we …

  29. My brother had maybe 4 acute stays here, and 7 more elsewhere, but here I have to say was the best place he was admitted to other than Harsha in Terre Haute. The staff here were very helpful to my brother and did tackle his treatment goals, …

  30. This hospital did wonders for my fiancee while she was an inpatient at their location but once she became outpatient they no longer seemed to give a damn about her. It would take forever to get her medicine refilled so she would run out for …

  31. They are under staffed cant get anything organized. They had me stuck there for 4 hours when my daughter arrived. Than when she was to be discharged they told me they would have her ready at noon and it took them forever to discharge her knowing that i had appt 2 hours away.

  32. I went for 4 days and when I was there, the staff were rude and never gave me all my stuff back. My therapist called them and they never answered. They never game me back my sweatshirt either. Don’t recommend at all!!!

  33. Unbelievably bad. After admittance, patients are held for days without psychiatric evaluation. Patients are left to deal with withdrawal symptoms while being locked up in a facility outfitted with bright white paint and florescent light …

  34. I went to the meadows after someone telling me to constantly commit suicide, then I got broken up with, I have cut myself in the past, and I met some nice people in there I got to know a little bit about, they didn’t really help us, it was …

  35. Terrible place to attempt to get help. Two key things that stuck with me about this place is that you’re promised to see a therapist daily. Never happened. Not a single day. Only time I got to speak to a therapist was when I was leaving and …

  36. What a joke. Poorly staffed, or poorly trained. Brother sent in suicidal needing to detox from suboxone/methadone….plan from probation and caseworker was to detox and transfer to sober living. Instructed not to give suboxone. …

  37. I never write reviews but this needs to be said. DON’T SEND ANYONE YOU LOVE HERE. They make your anxiety worse and they treat everyone like prisoners. The lack of compassion and understanding especially given this is a mental health clinic …

  38. Horrible service, has to be the worst place to go to seek mental help. The place was nasty in general, staff workers very rude not helpful at all. Very un motivating words used to patients from staff members. I would strongly suggest looking into a different place for help.

  39. I went there on the week of the 11th of May and to be honest it was okay. The patients i was with were awesome and i made friends (even a girlfriend)!! Some of the staff was awesome, especially this one guy who was sarcastic. The food was …

  40. My mom was there for a week. When she arrived she had all of her prescriptions from home with her. When she was discharged and got home she did not have any of her home medication. They are located two hours away from her. We called and …

  41. After reading all these reviews I am scared poopless! My child was admitted apparently at 11am. I got a call from her saying so, and that her phone was being taken away. It is now 5pm and I’ve not gotten a call from the hospital, I’ve …

  42. This is the worst place I have ever been, and it makes me reluctant to go anywhere to get help or to be safe! My doctor (Jin) communicated with me through Skype, and had his student asking me questions. Was hard to understand, and simply …

  43. Where do I begin. Its completely horrible there. I was there 8 days (they wanted me 12). First off Bob and Ashley the nurses need to be fired. I was in bed and Ashley walked in an told me to sleep and i was like im trying and she kept …

  44. i was there for 72 hrs,i was there for depression,thinking thry would be some ne to talk toabout the problems i was having,that was a big zero.the first night when i got there,this lady candy was very nice,when she got done talking to me …

  45. Horrible place !!!! Dirty and gross ! Knew my daughter was coming 10 hours prior who is 13 and was left in a room with a chair and table . Forget about calling to check on your loved one . It will take 45 minutes for someone to answer then put you on hold .

  46. Patients can be quite the handful, but from my experience in 2 acute (5-7 days) stays and a residential (6 months-1 year) stay, the staff i’ve been accompanied with have been most helpful. The groups on acute are intensive, daily, and well …

  47. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE AT ALL!!! This hospital has NO CARE FOR THE YOUTH patients especially dayshift I am a mother of a child that is in there! I had to go to several people because my Child is on adhd meds and the stopped giving them …

  48. Overall, it’s nice…enough. I must say that you’re probably worse when you come out than when you first got admitted. Some of the staff are just extremely rude and lack respect. It like being treated by children. I’ve been there twice, and …

  49. I went here about 4 years ago and they took me off of lithium cold turkey causing me to have a complete psychotic break. they don’t help and i would recommend literally anywhere else. I left there worse then I came. They let a girl actually …

  50. My daughter had been there for over a week. Her first doctor was great with communication but since he was off this week she was being seen by another doctor. Can’t even get to talk with him! Saturday I received a call from staff that my …

  51. Wish I could rate lower. Didn’t give me clothes for days, told me that my insurance covered my stay, then left me with $6,000 of medical debt when I left without saying a word. I’m on disability and can never expect to pay it back. This …

  52. I spent 6 days here last May, and all I’m saying is if you like sitting around reading children’s books (even if you’re in the adult ward), coloring, playing cards, and taking art/gym “therapy” classes every day with no actual psychiatric …

  53. This facility is not interested in helping people. My son has been a patient 4 days and there is no communication from therapist nor a care plan. The psychiatrist that is filling in is on a power trip. She makes decisions without knowing …

  54. Inconsistent staff, they wont give anxiety meds. Place is a lot like jail the only thing good about my experience was the food. They even discharged me on a Friday I was litterally waiting for the cab when administrative staff said I was …

  55. This place doesnt deserve ONE STAR. I took my child here for inpatient medical treatment. She was suffering from depression. The strongest med she had ever taken was mellatonin and I specifically asked them to not give her any rx …

  56. My adult daughter was there for a week due to suicidal tendencies. The night nurse was excellent, great communicator and very helpful so I give her 5 stars.
    HOWEVER, the dr took my adult daughter off all her anxiety meds with no reason …

  57. My daughter has psoriasis and I brought her topical creams that were prescribed by her dermatologist. She was not allowed to have them. She asked if she could use them at the nurse station and was told not without a Dr. order from her …

  58. My daughter is currently there. You have given her clothes away to another kid. I understand it needs checking but you gotta do better than that. What gets me the absolute most is.. it’s that time of the month. I brought pads to her. She …

  59. Just got out literally 3 hours ago. DO NOT SEND KIDS HERE. I was here for three days I never saw a therapist. And I was put on three new meds one that made me sick. This is not a place that provides therapy. If your child is have bad …

  60. Do not send your loved ones here!!! Absolutely terrible. My best friend is currently in here right now and she is having the worse experience ever.. when she was at the hospital before being taken here she was told she’d be picked up and …

  61. No one answers the phone. No one will call you back. You won’t talk to the doctor for your child for 5 days after being promised everyday they would call. Your voicemails are not heard or get a returned call. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILDREN HERE. …

  62. At Bloomington meadows, I sat in a corner all day banging my head into the wall, and they would not support me because even though I was self-harming and a few times trying to kill myself, “you’re not actually going to die that way” is how …

  63. I went there as a teen, now I’m well into my adult years and finally feel comfortable talking about my experiences there. I went there for trying to commit suicide, I was only supposed to be there a week but they kept me longer. Because …

  64. Awful. I wish I could give 0 stars. These out of touch people WILL call CPS on your family if you refuse to leave your child within this abusive, turbulent place. They lack compassion and human decency. (After an hour of me being there, the …

  65. This is the worst mental hospital I ever received treatment at. The staff is rude and does not care about their patients, I was seen 1 time by a therapist, and now have been waiting a whole month for meds. I have tried to contact doctors …

  66. My experience started out with them not allowing my staff member my staff members in the intake process I have an intellectual disability thank God that mine is mild and I could answer and understand what they were saying. Don’t bring …

  67. Most of the staff was nice. Food is horrible of course. Bed time too early along with dinner. Hard to communicate with a doctor through a computer. And the other doctor has told a patient to kill themselves while I was their. Doctor told me …

  68. Im taking my 3 stars back this experience was traumatizing and I would never want to go back….. they didnt let me have a stuffed animal because it had plastic eyes, they wouldnt give me my clothes for days, they didnt even have any …

  69. Worst hospital ever don’t go there when your out of your mind the staff takes advantage of young females that are vulnerable. Glad Derrick Ball doesn’t work there anymore

  70. My daughter was evaluated in person and then attended virtual intensive outpatient therapy sessions. The intake therapist was professional and very gentle. The IOP therapist Michael was great! My daughter found him easy to talk to and said he was very helpful! My daughter is in such a better place now, thank you Bloomington Meadows!

  71. If I could make this negative stars I would. Let’s begin with communication, there is none except the therapist,Ms Gerwig (she’s fantastic). The doctors will NOT listen to the parents and overmedicate the kids and send them home. There is …

  72. Wish I could rate negative stars. DO NOT send a loved one here. I spent Monday through Friday here and came out worse than I did before. I was denied my liver treatment medication (will be taking legal action) for days. Got absolutely 0 …

  73. I know first hand all about this place. It is appalling seeing the generic response they are giving every review. An investigation needs opened on Meadows and it needs to be shut down. The many victims of abuse at the hands of Meadows are …

  74. I am grateful to testify I was lucky to not have my son admitted here or anything. I believe this place is not helping kids or individuals find answers or solutions. All I wanted was an evaluation for my son’s school because he said a …

  75. Spent a week there. They don’t see the patients as humans, closer to inmates but with fewer rights. My wife and several friends tried frequently to call but were repeatedly sent to a deadline. They don’t care about the people they are …

  76. Don’t ever send a loved one to this place!! They were the most unprofessional people I have ever dealt with. My daughter was there for 5 days and nothing was done to help her whatsoever. 3 of the days the doctors and Therapist weren’t even …

  77. Hello, whoever is representing this place currently. I am a former victim of psychological and emotional abuse by your hospital… I’m just curious if your facility still mistakenly believes that I owe it over $20,000. Please correct this …

  78. Im beyond annoyed with the hospital at the moment. While some of the staff has been amazing with my daughter, they seem to be ridiculously understaffed. They can’t return calls, I don’t think the staff that finally answered the phone this …

  79. My child was kept safe and well taken care of here. Everyone I spoke with took the time to answer my questions and explain things to me.
    My son said that everyone here treated him kindly and respectfully. …

  80. DO NOT send your child to this facility! My daughter was transported by ambulance (2hr trip). We were told by hospital to not travel down, as they weren’t doing in person intake due to covid restrictions. That we would get a call for intake …

  81. I got released a couple days ago, heres my honest review. The place isn’t the worst but its also not the best. The staff is very friendly. I spoke to my doctor everyday. The food is not bad at all, you can even get powerrade. Some flaws …

  82. My stay here has been absolutely horrible. There has just been nothing to do for the entire, painful week I stayed here for. Not only that, but the policy for rude remarks and comments is incredibly mild. I can’t believe someone somewhere …

  83. A total farce for physciatric care. Straight out of a movie where the hospital really doesn’t provide care for patients, but rather makes them feel worse. My daughter felt as though she was having a breakdown. The hospital in Bloomington …

  84. The hospital itself is dirty, the staff are so lax we witnessed them leave a 6/7 YO alone in an intake room for 2 hours without an adult. This little person even had to go knocking on doors to locate a blanket to sleep across some chairs. …

  85. Most of the staff was great only thing was the lady at the front desk is not very nice at all .We are parents bringing our children there or family to help them ..She was not friendly in the slightest.You should want people yo meet a …

  86. I sent my son here to be cared for while getting the mental help he needed. There are a handful of employees who did compassionately care for him. I had to call the director multiple times to address issues. Such as the poor attitudes of …

  87. If I could give a zero star I would, I hate these people my boyfriend has been here for 4 days because of psychosis and these people here are so rude do not send your loved ones here! Listen to the comments

  88. Trying to communicate with the staff is a nightmare! My brother was a recent (April/May 2022) adult patient here. When you call to speak to the patient or a nurse…most of the time to phone just rings and goes unanswered. When you call the …

  89. Absolutely traumatizing. I went here after a suicide attempt about a month ago, and all I can say is I am so sorry for the young children that are out through a place like this. They are so horribly understaffed and have the worst …

  90. Worst hospital ever. No care is given here, patients leave worse than when they came in. PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONES HERE. READ THESE OTHER REVIEWS!!! THEY ARE AWFUL AND THIS PLACE IS AWFUL. I have filed a formal complaint to the state and investigation is coming to the place. Save your loved ones. Send them somewhere else.

  91. Each day is spent doing absolutely nothing in a single room. There is no entertainment aside from talking to each other. Over the course of 7 days, I met with an actual therapist one time for about 20 minutes. It worsened my depression …

  92. Staff is nice but if you’re looking to get actual help go somewhere else. if you want to talk to a therapist it’s not happening. they do group therapy and it’s not with an actual therapist, you can tell them you want one on one but you …

  93. Was originally trying to get hired here. Found out that the HR department was little to no help and their lack of helping me (I.e having to wait 3-4 business days to get in contact with the correct person at the department). They also …

  94. My mother admitted herself into the hospital. I had missed her call, and I called back right away and they told me I had to have an ID number to even speak with her. She’s my mother!! How do I find out her id number??? The lady on the phone …

  95. I was in the child unit, and i just left today. Staff was amazing there, the food definitely wasn’t expected to be a 5 star meal. I overall had my treatment done within 7 days! I highly recommend that that have a better storage system …

  96. My daughter spent a horrible week in this dump. Traumatized her even worse. Time to call health department, politicians, regulatory authorities and get this place held accountable. Wish some of the staff would try and treat me how my …

  97. this place has traumatized me. i was here for 3 hours, 3! and they did nothing to help. The lady at the front desk was awful she is the most disrespectful person ever. I am 13 years old and having suicidal thoughts and all I wanted was some …

  98. It’s not a great place to send your child, if you wanted to speak to someone in charge, they don’t have any way of contacting them except through text unless you call Meadows. You will likely wait a few hours at the front desk to speak to …

  99. this place was awful. if i could give it zero stars i would. the third day i was there two little kids got into a fist fight ! the staff argued all the time n there was almost a fight between two of them too. i’m a 14 y/o female n when they …
