My brother has been at Georgia Regional Hospital since Saturday for help with his mental illness, which we later found out was connected to a drug addiction. He hasn’t been there long, and he was originally supposed to be released on Monday. However, today (Sunday), the Social worker called my parents asking them to come pick him up early because he was upset that he couldn’t leave. This experience has been extremely disappointing. It feels like the staff at this facility treat patients as if they’re just there to be “watched,” not helped. Instead of providing real care or treatment, it seems like they just want to release people who are struggling — whether with addiction or mental illness — back into the community to avoid dealing with the issue. The social worker who contacted my family was unhelpful and dismissive. It’s concerning that someone in that position could show so little compassion or professionalism when families are trusting them with their loved ones’ care. If I could give this facility zero stars, I would. People come here for real help, not to be brushed off or sent home without proper treatment. Georgia Regional Hospital seriously needs to evaluate its staff, training, and overall approach to patient care.

I was placed in Georgia regional mental hospital in 2017 after having my first son at 18. We didn’t have rooms. There was a closed off lobby with about 20 or so recliners (gender mixed) so I was constantly getting harassed by a 30 something yr old man with schizophrenic problems that would watch me sleep while jacking off and one of the worker even told the man my full name so he could look me up when he got out. The food and drinks were expired most the time , nothing ever healthy ! My first night there was, a girl came in speaking gibberish and screaming , took my food out my hand then threw it at the wall and the staff just laughed bc some of us was scared. Couldn’t get up to walk around. Had to brush my teeth with My finger and couldn’t brush my hair not once. I was there for 2 weeks and was only allowed an ice cold shower twice. Please don’t send your loved ones here ! I was forced when I showed signs of post partum depression!

Front staff seems to not know what they are doing!. I was waiting 30 minutes to be transferred to a Dr and Front desk guy named Garfield tried to transfer me 4 different times and every single time he would forget it was me say “hi, how can I help you” and chuckle cause he realized it was me. The fourth time he finnally transferred me and the call hung up. They need to trained how to their job. No where did we get a call to update us on our sibling. They just called us to let us know they discharged him, even when he was being aggressive. Like what?????

I was there from 08/2019 until 02/2020. Severe depression and suicidal. I was in the East Unit. I was not expecting not much and was totally shocked. Wonderful hospital. The care I received was beyond exceptional. I Loved The Recovery Mall and the gym. The grounds are Beautiful to take walks. Doctors and staff are Awesome. Much better care and experience then private hospital I have been in.

I admitted myself to a hospital for help. They sent me to Regional. In the 23 hours i was here, I was kept in a sort of waiting room. We were not given beds and even though I was in for a minor reason, I was mixed in with prisoners there for evaluation. They didn't separate gender and had only 3 orderlies watching the 13 of us. Some of the patients had violent tendencies and were free to wander. It took 6 hours for me to even speak to a doctor who said I will be released whenever they got around to it. Do not send anyone here. They took in 5 more convicts before I left. It isn't safe.
