GBSTAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE Honestly, I cannot stress this enough - DO NOT GO TO THE BEACH HOUSE. Most of the people that go there are only trying to appease the courts. The jail house rhetoric (on the mens side) is insane. You should know that they allow felons into the program which should be in some other program rather then what the Beach House "claims to be". The owner, Glen (something), came in and spoke of his story. While speaking, a tech came in for a patient and he asked 2 times why the patient had to leave and finally, with much hesitation, the tech said "because the ambulance is waiting for her". I felt sorry for her (the tech) because she knew she was violating HIPAA rules and regulations and most certainly for the patient because now everybody was talking about her and why she had to leave. This is such a gross privacy violation and I will report it and I hope the person who this happened to will reach out to me for some guidance on how to report this as well. Be very careful about choosing a program and center. Read the reviews and ask questions. I wasted 2 weeks of my life there with very little return. Luckily, I'm still sober and enrolled in an IOP. If you are reading this you or someone you know and love needs help. Please proceed with caution!

GBI was admitted for pain pill detox I was admitted for pain pill detox. Experts agree that opiate withdrawal is be no more than 10% per week. This not the case at Beach House. Standard protocol is 6 days of decreasing Suboxone and then you’re discharged. After my last dose of Suboxone wore off I went into 10 days of full blown withdrawal . Thankfully, I’m still hanging in. But their opiate detox is totally inadequate . This needs to change. I met many caring staff and conditions are generally good. But their opiate detox just sets people up to relapse

GBDO NOT GO!!!!!!! DO NOT GO!!!!!!!! I was both physically assaulted emotionally abused and kept against my will as well as many others! The experience was the worst of my life. I went tested negative for all drugs and was then extorted to try and be forced to stay longer. Every day the police had to come to the facility for patients trying to leave and they would then gaslight and violate every patient that would not submit to their tactics. DO NOT GO TO BEACHHOUSE! They left me after i was assaulted by a violent young man on the ground for 90 minutes and would not call the police or ambulance as i begged and other residents. These people are unethical and morally bankrupt. This place helps nobody but themselves. If 100 people go for help some will make it on t heir own. This place will try and make you stay 35-90 days even if you confirmed a 7 day stay with them as your only intention. If i had paid cash for one week they would have not tried to force me to stay longer. This place is not safe under any circumstance. Go anywhere else. BEACHHOUSE IS TOXIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GBMy Father was transferred from the… My Father was transferred from the hospital to this inadequate facility. After spending over six hours with no water, medication or food we had him emergency transferred back to the hospital. He was told to SHUT UP by one of the employees when he asked for his medication and some water. This place is a complete disaster and should be shut down. I get it health care professionals are extremely over worked/stressed etc. with COVID-19 and my heart goes out to all the good health care professionals. But to treat anyone worse than an animal is disgusting and unprofessional. People need to know how this place operates. If you do not like your job get a new one. By the way I never write reviews.

GBParent parent of a patient Parent parent of a patient. Medical/Psychiatry part of Beach House treatment needs a lot of improvement. Especially considering that many patients have co-occurring needs. Is a critical part of treatment. With that, the facility would approach 5 stars from my family perspective.
