  08/03/23 Still no response Nothing has changed since the inquest of my only child who was in a medium/secure unit and managed to take her own life. It appears none of the outcome of the inquest (with a jury ) has been acted upon!! FAST FORWARD TO 22/07/22 I put my review on 3 years ago and still waiting for a response!!!

  I was placed in buttercup ward in 2019 and left in 2021 whilst in this ward we where told to grow up and to stop faking it I was diagnosed with anorexia Nervosa before being placed at cygnet as soon as I was transferred to cygnet most of my diagnoses were taken off because "they didn't treat that sort of thing" a close friend passed away at the end on 2020 after being discharged I was really unwell and because they couldn't deal with me they discharged me to a non registered children's solo home and about a 2 months after being discharged the placement and the doctor of buttercup had a meeting he said " I expected her to have been readmitted already It's absolutely disgusting how patients are treated like their going insane for having phisical issues and trying to stand up for them selfs

  First of all I would give 0 stars but unfortunately that isn’t an option. I am the parent of a 13 year old child with autism. She was sadly sectioned after experiencing psychosis and ended up in this terrible place. At the start of her admission we were made to feel that she was in the very best hands and that she would be safe in their care. However, sadly this was far from what she received. The support workers were incredibly unprofessional and gave the impression that they simply didn’t care for the patients thoughts and feelings. Even during her first few nights. My child would sit on the floor breaking her heart while the “so called” support workers would sit chatting and giggling. This would then become a regular occurrence and would continue for the whole of my daughters admission. When my husband and I visited our daughter, we were shown to a room where she was waiting for us, curled up in the corner in tears all the while a male support worker proceeded to chat, giggle and swing on his chair while we tried to comfort our distraught child at what was our first meeting since she had been sectioned. There were so many incidents where our daughter was mistreated and neglected that it would be impossible to write them all down. Her clothes were left unwashed for weeks at a time. On one occasion she was left sobbing sat on the toilet with only a towel to protect her dignity for over an hour while they washed and dried her clothes because they had neglected to do so until she was completely out of clothes. Our daughter would have autistic outbursts brought on by the terrible neglect and lack of care and empathy received at this hospital and their solution to these outbursts was to forcibly inject her and put her in seclusion, where she was being left for 3/4 days at a time. This happened on a weekly basis and she would beg and cry and ask for her mum completely broken. She was treated like a wild animal and not the tiny 13 year old with autism that she is. We fought like crazy to get our daughter out of this place and finally after 2 months we managed. I honestly do not understand how this place is still operational. What you see on the outside is very sadly not what happens on the inside and I feel for anyone that is ever unlucky enough to have to endure any time at this hospital, no matter their age. and for anyone reading this I wish you all the best with whatever you are going through and good luck.

  I am a courier and it was my first ever time hearing about this place. I had a delivery the receptionist was very rude and not helpful what so ever. I feel sorry for the patients here. This was on the 5th January 7pm
