Logan House was a huge wake up call. Some of the staff there really want to see you strive and encourage you. Others are by the textbook and educate you through their teachings. It’s nice to see volunteers and staff that have also been through addictions.
My case manager thoroughly disappointed me. I needed psych appointments and I was probably one of the only people that didn’t get a psychiatrist appointment in the time I was there. On departure, I feel I was blamed for ‘cancelling’ appointments. I worked there and worked relentlessly for a few weeks and didn’t get my pay. It took up most of my recovery. While I enjoyed it, there wasn’t much recognition and I was pulled from groups to attend to the work.
What made me get through and learn so much was the other people recovering. I have made life long friends. Everyone you meet are the most genuine and non-judgmental people you will ever meet and the community is amazing. While a lot can happen in a day at Logan House...I enjoyed it.
But I believe there is a lot to be fixed. I saw a lot of residents being encouraged and told to leave the program when they had doubts about themselves to make room for new residents. Very sad. 6 weeks is a drop in the ocean and during my time 12 weeks was unheard of.
I hope you can adjust these mistakes Logan House because a lot of the residents see you as money pushers. There are a few staff that are so amazing and the meetings are great (need a lot more A. A.) but you have huge flaws in my opinion.
