😔 …
Worked here for 2 years the patient care is horrible. Patients are a profit not people
please visit breakingcodesilence.net before you ever consider sending your child here.
Place id go Anytime
Zero stars. A staff member fell asleep on the job. Also an employee played video games while on duty.
Place is unbelievable unprofessional unacceptable..nurses taunt patients phones questions go unanswered…never ever bring you loved ones here….sad place i wouldnt let my dog spend a night here…
Horrible. Doctor didn’t have a clue. Misdiagnosed me and changed my meds without talking to me about it.
If you don’t go into this place with problems, you’re going to leave with some. get out!!
Almost 5 years later still suffering from ptsd & flashbacks after my experience at age 13 here. Please do not send anybody to this hell.
The doctors and staff were friendly and awesome and i think that they are better then riverside respite and counseling as well
This place is genuinely so awful.
South coast Behavioral Health has helped give me my life back I’d recommend this program to anybody that has a family member or is in active addiction themselves
Worst place ever. They don’t help at all the employees nurse staff are extremely rude. I asked to speak to family member and lied to me and told me family member wasn’t there. So I would stop calling Don’t send loved ones here they treat them like they are in prison. Worst place to seek help.
Get this place shut down it is HORRIBLE they should be sued and reported for the way they treat their patients. Never send anyone you care about here because it will not help them one bit
Horrible Treatment do not send your kids here worst treatment center in Massachusetts if you want any real change plus a total lack of empathy by the staff.
Ive heard too many cituations of patience being overmedicated n this should be a HUGE CONCERN n why isnt anyone pushed to get all this investigated n MAINLY GET THESE PATIENTS TRANSFERRED THE HELL out of there lets all stick together n …
This place is busy,but what they are doing is illegal. The should shut this and investigate the doctor’s licenses. I don’t think they are real doctors. Anyway, this is not a group of professionals but criminals. They have accomplices in …
My daughter was severely beaten by another patient during her stay. All the warning signs prior to the assault were ignored. In my opinion this is not a safe place.
Tremendously helpful staff. My family has benefited from your wonderful help to our family member. We are so thankful for the groups and all the Nurses and the help and understanding given to our whole family.
Not good was released today 12 17 21 and would not give my father the admitted items list because my class ring and necklace is missing thanks to brewster ambulance to see if was with me on the day i was admitted
Very unorganized and unhelpful. They tell you to pick up your family member or loved one at a certain time and make you wait over an hour and then proceeded to ask you why you’re still here, they will call you when they are finished. So …
Southcoast is a one of a kind treatment center with the most compassionate staff. They truly do care about each client and their individual needs. If your looking for a family away from Home and the support to rehabilitate your life, Southcoast Behavioral is the place.
Disgraceful alarming and upsetting. I had a family member who is in law enforcement sent there and after a short stay, fellow patients became familiar of his profession. I just found out they assaulted him on more than one instance. The …
Completely toxic staff on every level and should absolutely be investigated by the state and or attorney General. Also Completely laughable employees are shilling in the reviews to try and prevent that.
I have been trying to reach a patient for 3 days on 2 different extensions. The phones keep ringing with no answer. I think that is insane due to patients not being able to have phones. They are family members to us. This is very …
Spent 3 days there. My Unit 2 Staff was excellent! SBHH couldn’t figure out a way to do visitation 5 months into COVID? There are ways people! Thats not heathy. Some people are there for months and they provide no way of cutting their hair, …
if you have a love one who is severaly depressed keep far far away from this place it is the worst rehab i have ever seen doctors, nurses, aides have wicked bad attitudes and don’t care about their patients they try and dope you up so you …
Wow, so many negative reviews. Just want to say every situation is unique and every one has their own expierence. The staff here is hard working and understanding, the nurses do their best as social workers. They care.
I am so surprised by all of the negative reviews. They treated my son and we had a great experience with them. Everyone was competent and the communication was great.
I wouldn’t put my dog here for treatment.. Run as fast as you can in the other direction. Staff is horrific and the place is like a prison. Just because you have a mental illness doesn’t mean they should treat you like you are less of a human.. And they don’t treat family members any better,,
Southcoast Behavioral Health was uniquely developed to create access to behavioral health inpatient treatment within the southeast region of MA. It has been a privilege to connect with our community partners to ensure that our patient population needs are met at an inpatient level of care.
I was at st lukes waiting for an evaluation because of false accusations. As crazy as it sounds, I was very rude because I was not told why I was being taken there. I was punched by a staff member, so I swung back unfortunately breaking his …
We had very little contact with social worker and NO contact with doctors. It’s an insurance factory where your loved one will be locked away for a week while they collect $$$ from insurance. …
My father is in here and they treat him pretty awful.
Don’t complain to them about loved ones in their care because the staff will take it out on the ones you care about. …
My friend and house mate was admitted on 5-24-19 in a psychotic state and was discharged 6-6-19 and was driven back home in the same state he was admitted!!! When called to ask why he was discharged in this condition was told they were …
My mom was a patient there.she was being treated for depression. The staff is wonderful. The problem is they have violent patients mixed in with non violent patients. Woman and men are mixed together. A man with Alzheimer’s went into my …
If you love your child, DO NOT send them to Southcoast. My 13 year old has been in and out of care the past year and this place was the absolute worst! He was injured while there and staff refused to take him for medical treatment. They …
We had a good experience with this hospital. Any time an adolescent needs psychiatric care, it is a scary time for parents. My son received the utmost respect and medical care one could ask for. The Dr.s, nurses, staff and administration are excellent.
Had someone close to me receive treatment here-
If you can avoid receiving care here, or you can keep family members out of …
It’s wasn’t such a bad experience I feel employees in unit 4 need a pay raise. They endure Long shifts babysitting aggressive adults. There’s only so much they can do at a time. I noticed they were also understaffed. Idk about the other …
My elderly mother was placed here because she was experiencing psychosis episodes. She was hearing voices. The doctor diagnosed her with a UTI and a bad ear infection. …
My 15 yr old is in this “facility”. We had limited choices due to Covid19. Here’s what you should know ahead of time before doing the tele-intake permissions for your adolescent : …
My grandmother was placed there after falling 3x in one week to be evaluated by this hell hole of a facility that I don’t even know HOW they are still open. The head nurse there Stephanie the one who has been rude every single time I have …
If I could give it to zero Stars I would. My ex-husband is in there now he had a complete psychotic breakdown was put in there Tuesday and they are releasing him today which is 2 Days Later. He is seeing things he forgets talking to people …
Southcoast Behavioral Health has provided quality care to patients since 2015 and it has been a privilege to watch the hospital grow into what it is today. It’s a breath of fresh air to be part of an organization where both patient care and employee relations are top priorities.
I came here for a couple days to help me with my depression and anxiety. The staff, doctors and social workers are truly amazing at what they do, they are very understanding and so helpful and they care about your needs, always. They have …
This place is a JOKE. if you have a family member that suffers from severe bipolar depression DO NOT SEND HERE. finally we got the help my family member needed in Boston. This place may look nice but it is horrible. The doctors just put …
Worked there for a year. By the nature of any Psych facility it was stressful. I tried to do the best that I could. Wasn’t good enough. The director of the dept I worked in, hired her friends to come and work there. I saw the writing …
I brought my family member there recently for help and received the opposite. They follow no part of the Hippocratic Oath. They do not treat patients or their family members with respect or dignity. I’ve been hung up countless times for …
My Mom is currently in this place .It needs much improvement. We had trouble with the male social worker on unit 3 ,he had no compassion for Mom or family members . Refused a family meeting as requested. Sent her to a nursing facility …
Family member came to this place. We thought he would get help and be safe, neither happened. They over medicated him and he was assaulted by other patients multiple times. He was placed in a dangerous situation where he had to defend …
My child temporarily lived with his grandparents. I gave his grandparents temporary guardianship so they could enroll him in school and get him to doctor visits. I still have full sole/legal custody of my son. The doctor would not call me …
Took incredible care of my son. Dr.Gass (psychiatrist) saw him every weekday for two weeks he was there. Case worker and all the nurses I spoke with were wonderful. My son said the food was good too!
This is a horrible place to send your loved ones I had to call and advocate just so my loved one could speak to a doctor. Your loved ones are not safe they have violent patients that attack other patients I witness this first hand during …
In general the staff were good except for a few of them. My Dr was nice but I wish I could of spent more time with him. It was nice to go outside and go to the gym at times. I didn’t like the fact I saw a casemanger only twice in 12 days …
Absolutely awful. I was a patient here for a month and all I learned was that they care about rules more than they do about taking care of your mental health. They ignored all signs I specifically stated in words that I was becoming …
So far so good. My son has been here for three weeks now. His Doctor is always available to talk with me concerning my sons treatment. The hospital is clean, decent environment compared to other aging hospital s I have seen. My son …
This place was the absolute worst. I was forced here against my own will, but if you have a choice, do NOT come here. I hope the doctor I had gets fired. He wanted to put me on a new medication, and at first I said no. But he kept pushing …
staff would not change my room despite the fact my roommate was violent, homicidal, and incredibly manipulative. my mother had even called the facility and asked them to change it. they hung up immediately. when I was crying they “didn’t …
The only thing helpful about this facility were the workers. The nurses were unprofessional and clearly did not care about the patients. The doctor was a quack who just wanted to drug the patients until they were emotionless zombies. The …
There are a bunch of negative reviews here but overall this is a good facility where you will get efficient, no-frills psychiatric care. The doctors are knowledgeable and the staff are very kind. One problem I had was that the doctors were …
In my time at Southcoast behavioral health hospital, I have been impressed by the compassion and care provided by staff from all departments. Nursing staff, BHA technicians, case managers, administration, physicians and all other …
During the intake my Doctor threatened me with suicide watch if I didn’t talk to him keep in my mind I was barely 13 and scared out of mind. The staff were mostly nice but a lot of them did not care and rude. They did not care and had no …
I am so happy to be able to work for a company who helps those in need. Patient care is always a priority here and seeing patient outcomes is one of the greatest joys of my career. Being an employee here, I am recognized for my hard work and staff do a great job providing positive reinforcement and guidance when needed.
Horrible. Visitation was supposed to be 7-8pm. I arrived 15 min early and they didnt let anyone in to see their kids until ALL visitors were signed in, locked their stuff up, and wanded. 7:45pm and they were STILL wanding other parents.
EDIT: This place has refused to provide me compensation for my destroyed property. I had refused to pay this place a single cent on medical bills till getting my money back but looks like Southcoast here is just gonna have to deal with …
Due to Covid I couldn’t see a family member that was there for 2 weeks. It took the doctors 8 days to call me back after numerous attempts to call them even though it was confirmed on day 2 that there was a signed consent to speak with me. …
My sister had acute chest pain for hours, and they told her to eat her dinner.They told her that they were not a medical hospital.The staff did not interact with the patients.She did not feel safe there. They put patients in seclusion and …
I’m being a little more generous than the other reviews giving this place a second star.
Do NOT be fooled though – I am not in the least impressed with this place. …
I have watched Southcoast Behavioral Health Hospital become the great facility that it is today. I have worked closely with their team for years and have used this facility to place people into Behavioral health services. I have never had a bad experience and nor have I received any complaints from those that I referred!
My family member was recently treated here in geriatrics. The staff has been extremely compassionate and kind. The social workers and the nurses are very responsive to my frequent calls for status updates. I received very detailed …
My 13 year old friend called me crying from this program because the staff called them by she/her pronouns instead of their preferred pronouns they/them and called them by their birth name instead of their preferred name that they asked …

I have worked with South Coast Behavioral Health in a professional capacity for many years and they have always been very accommodating and thorough. I am confident that the people I send to them are getting the quality of care that they …
Was a patient there a bit after opening. Doctor refused to detox me even after being admitted for a drug overdose. She said my tox screen was negative for opiates. Anyone in the drug treatment field knows that Fentanyl is sold as herion her …
If your child has anxiety or is depressed do not send them here. My daughter was at this place for two weeks. It is a very toxic environment. Every day there where multiple physical fights, some where very violent. Every phone call she was …

This place had great food, great staff, and love getting everyone outside. You could go outside whenever you want, they had snacks whenever anyone wanted. Random lemonade all the time. This place actually cares about making us patients …
I was just discharged yesterday and what a terrible hospital, despite complaints of staff, the unit 1 staff weren’t too bad but the doctor or well she is a nurse practitioner but deemed a doctor for whatever reason. But anyway the doctor …
LPN starting at $28 hour? You can not be serious, I was just starting at $40hr plus $5 diff nights and $2 weekends at another facility. You do realize there is a Massive Nursing Shortage nationwide and record inflation and wages have …
Not so long ago I was admitted to this place for an unexpected very bad experience. I have nothing bad to say about this place. From doctors to nurses to techs they all went the extra mile to make sure I was doing good and comfortable. …
Everyone that works there except the nurses where I had a problem with all of them the min I walked through the door I was Lydia to I was told I had to give them my weighted blanket but I could get it back when I got on the unit I literally …
Staff had little to no remorse for any of the patients. In fact they would constantly complain about their jobs to each other in front of us. “Group therapy” was just us sitting in a room for hours with no guided conversions or activities …
My mother was just discharged from here. She has severe schizophrenia. During her stay she injured her eyes and shortly after was discharged back to the nursing home where she lives.She is still a total disaster. They had no business discharging her so soon!
awful place. one of my friends went here voluntarily to get help and was underfed, hit on, and barely given any actual professional help. shame on this place. if you care about your loved ones, send them somewhere else

Worked Here for about a year as a cook, went through 3 Directors in that time. Was treated very unprofessionally after giving my two weeks notice. I was not allowed to grab my belongings from my locker but instead had to wait outside while …
Recently admitted here. Good staff and facility. I was in the DDU. The nurses and floor people are friendly. They have an indoor basketball court and they take you to workout 2 – 3 times a day (managed to quit smoking AND get in better …
