The Haverhill Pavilion

Experiencia positiva: The company is a tight knit group of people who really care for the place they work and their clients as well as eachother . I worked there for some time and got a lot of support from my peers. The social workers also offer a lot of time and effort to making peoples lives just a little bit easier. Working there felt like working with a family and I miss it. It's not very often that you work somewhere where you consider your co-workers good friends.

Experiencia positiva: Went here for treatment April 2015...admitted for a week. While the doctor and social worker that worked with me were excellent, much of the time on the unit in the milieu was just spent sitting around. They ran groups, but they seemed to be few and far between, unless you were a dual diagnosis client (alcohol and drug addiction plus mental health issue concurrently). So the dual people got twice as many groups and it almost felt as if treatment revolved around them in regards to group therapy. We were given adequate outdoor time which was nice especially in the spring as it was starting to get warmer, so that also helped to break up the monotony. The good news is that after around 20+ years of treatment for myself, I found a doctor there that seemed to get my medications right. I have been doing quite well since my discharge in mid-April and am thankful as I said for the doctors and clinicians and social workers, but the milieu for non-duals needs work in my opinion.
