Reviews

I was here for a little over a month and it was the worst experience of my life. The staff was so unfair, they treated this one girl like she was some high and mighty princess. For example, if she did something to you and you said something about it to the staff, they would jump all over you and you would be the one to get in trouble. Also you get “no’s” for not eating enough. I don’t think they realize that not everyone eats the same, I’ve never been one to eat a lot at one time because if I do I start feeling sick because of my acid reflux. Well, one time I couldn’t eat anymore and I felt like if I did I was going to throw up, so I told them that. Their response was something along the lines, “you either eat or get a no,” like seriously?!? My mom even told them not to make me eat when I feel sick because I will throw up, and they still tried to make me eat. They also tried to teach us that we shouldn’t “depend on our parents,” but we’re kids? I’m pretty sure kids kind of need to depend on their parents for things. They also tried to tell me that me being close to my mom was unhealthy, she’s my mom and it’s in no way unhealthy to be close to her. This place is ridiculous and I am baffled at how many good reviews there are.

My name is Logan Cantore and I'm a former patient from Hillside. It's been a while since I've even thought about my stay because things have gone so well since, I just got my first job today and I truly believe I never would've had the motivation to do it if it wasn't for the outstanding staff at Hillside. If I may I'd like to request that Mr. RJ, Mrs. Crystal, Mr. Gabe, Mr. Logan, Mr. John, and all the night and day staff each personally receive my sincere thanks for the phenomenal job that they do there. If it weren't for you guys I would've never grown up to be the man I am today, and for that reason you all have a very special place in my heart. YOU GUYS SAVED MY LIFE. I'm sorry I haven't called or visited to update you all but it's been a hell of a ride and I want you all to know I haven't forgotten a single thing you guys did for me. I'm sorry for some of the stupid decisions I made while I was there, but in the end I'm so happy to have spent the 3 months that I spent with you all. Please remember all the laughs we shared and even sometimes the tears, it's kept me going for a long long time now and I hope it's done the same for each of you. I miss you all so much and I hope to come visit soon. Keep up the good work everyone, and never forget the reason each of you is there because I know I never will. 😊❤

P.S.
I know not everyone has the same experience here and I understand so that's why I want to address this. These people work their butts off to keep the patients safe. I saw it every single day I was there and I can say in complete confidence that if they didn't have to do certain things the way they do it they'd change it all in a heartbeat. I felt welcomed every day I woke up, I felt like I was with a family away from my family, I felt safe like I am at home now. My whole stay there I constantly thought about home, but now that I've left I have nothing but a desire to come back just to thank the staff for what they did for me and I live 6 hours and 33 minutes away. I know because I was upset that I never properly said goodbye the whole ride home. So if you really didn't like your stay then I'm sorry, but I can say in good conscience that I will never forget the lessons I learned and the people I grew to know at Hillside.

This place saved my son life.  He is struggling with depression but he is learning very important skills to deal with it.  The therapist are the best, they know how to push them in a safe way.  Believe me I have been in many therapist offices before we got here.  As a parent, this is the first time that I could go to sleep knowing that my son has been working hard to get better.  The staff (all of them) are not working there for just a check, they really care.  I would never be able to pay them for their support, help and treatment that they provided to my son.  THANKS!

I worked here for several years as a behavior spec. and the hours were convenient for my schedule. I wouldn't say it is all bad but there is no connection between the management and the behavior specalists. Although we worked with the children all the time we were treated as glorified fry cooks and made to know that we were expendable. Unfortunately it is a totally private hospital so the admin. Doesn't answer to anybody. As a result they give themselves raises and bonuses regularly while paying the unit staff very poorly. The HR dept. is unlike anything I have ever experienced. They are not there for employees and we were routinely threatened with the spectre of a visit to HR as a prelim to being fired. This place is run like a small fiefdom with those at the top doing very well while treating those closest to the patients quite badly. As an example we worked 12hr shifts during which we were not permitted a scheduled break. You could ask for a short break but it was at your supervisors discretion. When new hires would lecture us about the illegality of this practice we would laugh and say "welcome to Hillside".

The best facility in GA for DBT and behavioral treatment for youth. Highly recommend to anyone looking to help their child!
