[QUOTE="amazeofgrace, post: 523159, member: 4864"] So my youngest son (15) was admitted to long term residential a week & a half ago. Since then he has been bullied, had toe surgery, still has not gotten the antibiotics from the toe surgery and punched a wall and hurt his hand, but they insist it doesn't need to be x-rayed. Oh and it took me a whole lot of screaming to finally have someone tell him when he could do his laundry. When I went for my 1st visit I was put off by the unruliness of the boys in the unit and the staffs lack of response. I mean, I get it, it's a psychiatric ward, full of adolescent boys, but the staff (who's only requirement is that they have a hs diploma and complete on site training) are very young and do not strike me as clinical or professional. Quit ethe opposite, they look like friends my difficult child II made in rehab! Am I being over sensitive, I mean I am uber worried about difficult child II because he is VERY sensitive. I spoke with the social worker and the unit supervisor about the bullying and they are "addressing" it. sigh.....:sigh: [/QUOTE]
