  Really, REALLY good. Amazing staff, groups and the list could go on forever. Helped me so much I can't say thank you enough. I am a different person.

  I absolutely have zero regard for health institutions that have no compassion for the very people who need their service and this place is one. I talked to the intake person about my friend's recent paranoid delusion. The intake person asked if I knew if my friend was using any drugs and when I told her that he maybe using marijuana for medical reasons, this is what she said: "He may be one of those unfortunate cases that develop irreversible psychosis/ schizophrenia after smoking marijuana (giggles)" . I WAS APPALLED BY THIS PERSON'S BEHAVIOUR. She had no compassion for this sick person (my friend) and carried on to babbling about something that she had no clue about. I asked if she was a clinician and she said she was an intake person. SOMEONE WHO HAS NO MEDICAL TRAINING tells that my friend maybe have irreversible psychosis or schizophrenia? Are you kidding me? I'm filing a formal complaint through the BC Health Ministry and I hope this person will be one day in my shoes.

  I have someone in there for almost 6 months you can not get any information no phone calls back nothing. Even relatives! There is absolutely no change ! They just have her on just as heavy drugs as she was on . This place is terrible if anyone knows the phone number to the person that runs the place please let me know! This is awful! And they put them in housing like this!
