I am very angry with the mental health care at Armadale Hospital. My friend was referred to ED by their Psychologist due to suicidal thoughts. First, we had to wait over 3 hours to be seen by the mental health team - disgusting in my opinion. Then when they finally meet with my friend, they tell them how horrible it is and that my friend should just go home! They are suicidal! What do you think would happen if they went home?
Absolutely disgusted with the care and what I felt was an overall blasé attitude by the mental health professionals. Based on our experience, would not recommend this service to anyone because it seems to have done more damage than anything!
