  1. So I have been there many times and every time this woman named ms crystal on the kids side she would yell at me and take my food away and take my clothes and punish kids for coming back there I mean why are they back there they NEED HELP …

  2. I was there a few years ago without any problems from staff they are all very carrying I was back last year and a lot of the staff was still there, and still treatment was great.

  3. My daughter is currently there I haven’t spoken to her in three days the panic I’m going through is awful they are great with communication with and when I ask can she come home I get hardly any answers …

  4. This place is designed to help people??? Been waiting for over 3 hours to be seen with no update. What if people leave because they’re tired of waiting then go and hurt themselves? Huuuge defeat of purpose.

  5. My sister begged to be admitted and they still turned her away. What type of doctors and staff do they have? She already told them that she needed help badly yet turned away.

  6. We trust Wellstone with the care of our mother in their geriatric with issues related to dementia. They over sedated her, allowed her to become severely dehydrated. Now we are planning her funeral.

  7. This place is awful gave my son wrong medication and refused him a pillow and blanket then the social worker asked us what kind of drugs he needed to be on. This place is a bunch of BS and I wish I could give them a 0 there is alot more just would take forever to write it all.

  8. The only thing good about the place was the social worker. She seemed to be the only one there that cared about the patients. I was there for week and saw my doctor once for 30 secondd.

  9. This place has helped me multiple times the staff was so kind to me! Their place needs a major facelift and update but still a wonderful place to go get the help you need!

  10. I ended up going to wellstone for depression but what I found there was a mentally ill Mental Health Technician named Kelly who was so much more than disrespectful… She was in fact emotionally abusive and terroristic in her approach to …

  11. Hated this place very traumatic for me. I was bullied and got into fights in there. I hated that place. It just made my depression worse. But thankfully I found a good therapist outside of wellstone that helps me.

  12. Would not give me food my body could handle as a result my blood sugar dropped continuously in the 30s. They decided that was a medical problem and release me even though i was still suicidal

  13. Considering it’s a mental hospital you would think your workers would have some common respect 🤷🏻‍♂️,but some of your workers lack that. Probably reconsider who you hire and who you don’t smh. …

  14. My sister was here ..we visited her and all the nurses staff were nice and very competent except one person the receptionist with Bob hair cut..she was very rude and didn’t give anyone the paper I had to sign to get HDR out I waited over an hour

  15. In cahoots with the Brook hospital. Also will let you wait and wait with no answer. When you are experiencing a traumatic family event, the least these people could do is be timely and show compassion.

  16. Anyone who tells you to take your child here either doesn’t know how bad this place is or doesn’t actually care about your child’s well being. They will dope your child up, no actual treatment plans, won’t answer or return calls, no one on staff actually capable of giving a legal diagnosis.

  17. People seem to either hate this place from experience of loved the service they provided when they were there. When I was there I can honestly say it saved my life and can’t express my gratitude to the facility enough. The amount of food that is offered to you is unbelievable.

  18. Do not go here for your first choice. I came here, when I had a panic attack, the staff had the other kids watch me which didn’t help at all. I was threatened to be beaten up right in front of the staff. Lost some weight because the food was so bad, though. Had to lie to get out of this hell-hole.

  19. We refer to Wellstone Regional Hospital and have had good reports. The staff is very professional and we have all always had a good rapport with them. When we need help with a client they are always there.

  20. I went there March last year. I was in the kids unit seeing as I was 12 and the day staff was RUDE! I was sent there for my depression and they showed me way to cope with ANGER! Not depression! The food there was terrible also! The only good people there was my doctor.

  21. Please if you love your family member don’t send them here, it’ll be a waste of money and will not help with their recovery at all. I’m convinced all the people leaving 5 star reviews are being paid. If this were accurate they’d probably have a 1 star instead of a 2.7.

  22. After my prescription ran out I left several messages and had my pharmacy fax multiple refill requests with no response. I went through wicked withdrawl from having to stop my meds cold turkey and nearly had to be committed. Dont waste your time here, dr mian books appointments 1 to 2 hours before he even arrives anyway

  23. Requested medical records over thirty days ago with all signatures requested on form. Spoke to Hailey of Medical records and Director of Medical Records, Lisa and very unprofessional behavior was not appreciated. State law is thirty days. to receive recird

  24. A Very wonderful, patient service oriented place. I had a sign of relief when my wife was taken in after been to 4 different so called “big hospitals ” all within 3days with no help. Worse part she was over dosed and make the situation got out of hand. Good job, wellstone

  25. this place had helped me. I was there 11 days. I gave it 4 star’s because there where some rude staff there. I was a cutter and wanted to die. they where really concerned about me Finley the phy change all my meds and now lot better. This was my 4th stay with in 3 months and last hopital stay.

  26. I will never to go wellstone ever again. The nurses treated me like an animal. They were giving me some types of medicines that i wasnt suppose to take but they made me take it and i felt very judged there too.

  27. As a healthcare professional, I have seen great results from Wellstone with Geriatric Patients struggling with Alzheimer’s and/or Dementia. The physicians and social workers are very thorough in their approach to find a resolution to the …

  28. This place is a huge joke.
    The food made me nauseous every time I was around it, had to be put on a diet so I wouldn’t puke everyday. The staff are very immature. They laugh at you, they …

  29. As a School Social Worker, I work with many community mental health agencies. Wellstone Regional Hospital services many of the families in our community and is a wonderful partner. Their free assessments are essentials in families getting …

  30. I never thought anyone cared. And I was right I was 17 the LAST time I was sent to wellstone. It was 2 months before I turned 18. I walked in about 7pm but had been in the lobby for about 2 hours. That entire day was tough so I didn’t …

  31. This place is a JOKE! Our appointment was initially at 9pm. Waited for over an hour before they decided to tell us they needed to reschedule due to lack of staffing. Came back at 11:30pm for our second appointment and now it’s 2am and they …

  32. Hi my name is layla im14 and I was there for 2weeks….i hated it they took away my bra… And I didn’t but I got it 3 days before I discharged.. But over all the staff was nice.. And my room mate left a day after me then I got a room …

  33. I was there 2 weeks ago…8d stay. Nursing staff, social worker, activities & food were good. I did fill out 2 grievance forms & the DON and part of administrative staff had a meeting w/ my whole unit….i feel blessed to of been a part of their family for that short time.

  34. Beware of thefts. I brought a family member in a large bag of new full size toiletries, new shirts, new socks and underwear, new pants, and other various personal items as well as some other clothes. Not only did I sign a paper itemizing …

  35. We pulled our 10 year old son from this horrible place today. This is our sons 2nd hospital stay and I thought this would be a better place than the last but I was WRONG. Bloomington medows was WAY better!!! When I spoke to my son he begged …

  36. My experience was brief but good. I would return in the future if necessary.

    On a different note, I did want to remind readers to take the negative reviews …

  37. I LOVE IT! MY THERAPIST, MARK C. HAS BEEN WONDERFUL!!! Every person in his group is doing SO MUCH BETTER. The INDIVIDUAL perspective, and integrated approach to EMOTIONAL RECOVERY IS UNSURPASSED (in my opinion)….Thx Wellstone!….Penny S.

  38. I’ve been in the adolescent unit 2 times. They are very unprofessional, rude, and not helpful to someone going through serious mental health issues. I was crying all day my first day, about two months ago, and I was told to stop crying, …

  39. The entire facility was infested with ants and very overcrowded! They let patients get away with too much as well. In group, some of the staff are extremely rude, mean and should be patients there themselves! They could do better on beds …

  40. Yes every psych hospitals has its own problem. However, some of these reviews are 99.9 from people who thought they could got their own way. I was there from last Saturday up until 2 pm today. I have seen patients getting an attitude like …

  41. I was only 15 when I went here. It was not at all what we were expecting. I got transported here. We were told my mom could stay with me. We were told I would only be here 3 days or so. I was there for 2 weeks. I got to come home 2 days …

  42. Lady who answered the phone when I called about trying to get admitted for suicidal feelings was VERY rude. She only told me to find somewhere closer (this is the closest place to me) and hung up on me. When I went before in 2015 I had bad …

  43. They saved my life. I appreciate everything they did for me to get me thru a severe mania cycle. This was 4 years ago & I’m still doing pretty good with the help of continued therapy & meds. …

  44. This place is a huge scam. Love my therapist and the group therapy seems to work. I have nothing bad to say about the therapy, but they will bill you before they find out how many sessions your insurance approves and even offer you a …

  45. OK, so I went here when I was 15/16 (I spent my birthday in). I was here for 11 days in early 2011. I keep seeing all the high reviews and it makes me angry because this place DOES NOT DESERVE IT, so I’m finally speaking up. Maybe it’s …

  46. I was there when I was 14. I am 44 now. While I was there I was treated good. I had fun with the programs, like caving, zip wire and more. If I had kids that got treated I choose this place.

  47. Please choose a different place for your children. The school referred us here and I will forever regret trusting them. My child (who is 8) sat in the same clothes for days because they lost his clothes (and others who were there at same …

  48. Some of the staff is wonderful. Especially the nurse techs Alexis and Debbie, the nurses Jackie and David, and the dietitian Chris. They were all supportive, helpful, kind, and didn’t make me feel like a burden. Unfortunately there were …

  49. Our 14 yr old daughter attended this facility. Worst experience we have ever incurred. They were upset because they couldn’t force medication down our daughters throat. We refused. They alienated our daughter against us, told her we were a …

  50. Worst scam on the planet! Nothing more than an expensive hotel. You cannot get worse treatment than at this place. They have this big elaborate schedule posted when you arrive but dont actually do any of it. Tried to ask when we were going …

  51. This place has helped save my life many times in the latter 17 years. I was locked in there against my will several times, and I went from an overwhelming dislike of the staff, other people, and being alive, to knowing that I was actually …

  52. I’ve been a full in-patient before and it was a traumatic experience. Staff assumed I was bulimic (I have emetophobia, which I told them I had, and this was ignored) and had to be monitored when using the restroom after eating. They seemed …

  53. I just graduated from Wellstone today, omg they really helped me a lot. I’m very humble and glad, I found Wellstone the staff is very caring. They treat you like your family. Thanks so much

  54. I was admitted here after a suicide attempt at age 14. I turned 15 while in-patient at this facility. My insurance only covered 3 weeks of treatment and then was to let me go. During my stay, my roommate and I exchanged consented, sexual …

  55. I admitted myself to Wellstone in 2013. I already had an idea that in such an environment it would be hard to get much personal attention. Boy was I right! In particular, my group counselor, Luticia Whitfield’s attitude was one of “I’m just …

  56. Just noticing that the “owner” keeps replying to all of the negative feedback with empty words and reassurance while referring people to the contact page on your website. People arent posting here because they couldnt find the contact part …

  57. As a parent of a young child, it was extremely difficult to sign consent for inpatient but wanted to make sure my child was safe. Before I agreed to let my child go to a facility over 2 hours from home, I called and spoke with Anthony who …

  58. Took my son because he got to violent towards our pets and his sister. Sat in the lobby for 3 hours waiting for the intake specialist just to be told they cant help him. I begged for help because I couldn’t quit my job to watch him all the time. Wellstone is a major scam. Your child has to literally harm another person to get in there.

  59. If I could give it a zero I would! My wife’s stay here was horrible. She talked with the psychologist just for a few minutes, did not ask many questions. So how are you supposed to treat someone if you don’t have a clue what is going on. …

  60. My son has ADHD and they took him off ANY ADHD medication without giving anything else instead and gave me 3 hours notice before my shift ended at work of discharge the same day. No help for ANYTHING he was admitted for. Would not recommend.

  61. I will never forget my 5 days there. The staff of Unit 4: Dawn, Jennifer, Erin, Cheryl, Sherri, and others were unforgettable and couldn’t have cared more for me. Treated me personal like a son, or brother. Because of the experience, …

  62. Thought this place would be good for my son. Initial group therapy was good. My son had thoughts of self-harm. He was placed in inpatient where he was assaulted by another patient. He defended himself and all parties were arrested. Had …

  63. I was admitted at 10:30pm on Sunday. I tested positive for Covid, so I had to be in isolation the entire time I was there. Some of the nurses and techs were nice enough to treat me as if I was human. But some of the nurses and techs treated …

  64. If a zero were possible, this is what this facility would receive!! They claim to have done therapies and treatments for my child, but no one can manage to provide me with any documentation of what the actual care was that was given. They …

  65. Unfortunately, my son was admitted here back in October. We were both hesitant because of reviews we read. However, he received amazing care while there from all of the staff and overall we were both extremely happy with this place and …

  66. I was on a 90 day hold and I have to say my stay didn’t start out well. It was rough. I butted heads with staff at first. I was put on the hold by Wells County jail in Bluffton, Indiana. I’m happy with the services provided to me. I’m still adjusting to being out. They tried their best to make me comfortable.

  67. the kids were very friendly to me i went there on 9/16/2022 , they let me keep a pencil because i like drawing, but they made me move rooms because i was sitting on my roommates bed… i hate loud noises they often give me panic attacks so …
