  They are the worst facility! I would give it 0 star if I could. My husband took our friend there and had to wait 12 hours before they could check him in! Nurses and staff are the worst! If you don’t do drugs, you definitely will turn to drugs from all the frustrations and aggravations!

  An uprofessional work enviornment. Manager in Medical Records is unprofessional and terrorizes all staff within the department. HR does not enforce accountability, and thus there is nowhere to turn for improvement or relief. High turnover rate. The story remains identical for almost all other departments. Please stop enabling bad habits in unprofessional staff. This story must be exposed to promote and encourage positive change and betterment of policies and procedures. My purpose for writing this review is not out of spite, but out of empathy for my fellow man. I truly hope and pray this facility undergoes a radical change. It is well overdue.

  I went to chicago lakeshore when I was 16. That was 9 years ago and it seems things haven't changed much. As someone that suffered from depression and extremely bad anxiety, I would not have picked this hospital. It was a bunch of kids in the same ward with mental health issues, anger issues as well as dependency issues, all intermixed. For the first 3 days I was laying on my bathroom floor vomiting from a nonstop panic attack. Staff came to my room only twice a day but were never rude and always tried to help, they were just very understaffed. I couldnt eat so they gave me boost 3 times a day and brought me in the hallway at night by the nurses station to help with night time panic attacks which i appreciated. The groups didnt really help, we talked about the same things every day basically because we had new people always coming in. I remember waking up one night to two girls across the hall fighting until they were given sedatives. It was actually more tramatizing than helpful. There should have been different wards for mental health, dependancy and behavioral issues. I was there for a week and a half. A week after being discharged I was sent to linden oaks. The lack of staff and amount of downtime just gave us more opportunity to dwell on our own thoughts and feel worse in a chaotic enviroment.
