    The staff where very understanding and alot of people dont understand they cant break there rules or they get fired they are they to watch over u and make sure your not harming yourself or somone else. They are not therapist. So they are not there to listen to your problems. I was there for a month straight and watched how they treated people. And no if you sign yourself in there is certain criteria u have to meet before u go home. And if said person was to read the paperwork they would be aware of that. You get fed, showers,clothes and help. So to leave bad reviews when half of the people came from worse situations if un needed

    Genuinely helped me so damn much, the doctor listened, the staff listened. I really loved this place, I would've given 5 stars but they didn't give me back some stuff a pair of pants And a whole bunch of freshly refilled medication And the place is insanely understaffed. But overall, I reccomend this place!! (especially loved the point system and loved snack cart)

    I was in PRTF a couple years back. I was there for 8(ish) months when I was 12. I'm now freshly 16 and just realizing how horribly they treated me. If I'm being completely honest, no kid should be in highland. The staff members are mostly horrible people (except for big buddy and boss). They will make fun of you, and instigate fights. There have been multiple reports about some staff members trying to get with or touch the kids(patrick, a staff member, tried to get with Bella who was a patient after she got discharged).The food was horrible, almost always undercooked or raw. It was a horrible experience overall and taught me nothing but coldness. If any parents are wanting to send their kids here, don't. It's not worth it in the long run.

    I got admitted there twice for only 3 days both times I came in with a bunch of jewelry Things, necklace, bracelets, etc. some of those were priceless. They got passed down from grandparents and when I asked for that stuff back, they said they didn’t have it or they couldn’t find it. Do not send your child here ever.
