Business ProfileforRed Hawk Behavioral Health

I went to RedHawk. It did honestly help me with some things, however, there were some things that I had a huge issue with. 1. My medical needs were put off a lot. On multiple occasions I requested to see a doctor about persisting medical issues and they would not allow me to see a doctor or do anything about it.2. Staff were often not properly trained. I was told by a staff member (******) That I was evil. And yelled at by another (****) told that I would never get a job, that I was a brat ect. when I was crying because one of the other girls threatened me. Even the director 'restrained' girls in very extreme, painful, and unnecessarily aggressive ways. We used to have a tutor (********) who was fired about 4 months in to my stay, who wasn't very helpful with math/ science subjects. We didn't get another tutor for at least the next 5 months (I left after 9). 3. My academic needs were not met. When I asked ***** to contact my school and ask them what classes I should be taking it never happened. I am a sophomore so there are a lot of essays in my English classes/ History classes. At Redhawk there was one resident who was given the opportunity to use the computer on a daily basis and she did. Even when it wasn't required for her assignments. That left me and other residents with no way to complete our assignments and my grades suffered because of it. 4. Favoritism was a big issue at red hawk. Staff often had their favorites that includes day to day staff and the directors. I was treated better than other residents too. And in some cases I did benefit from it, but that doesn't make it right. 5. I was lied to on the phone. There were things that I was told would happen that never did, there were also things that I would consider lying by omission. I was never told about the cameras in the rooms, 7 minute showers, uniforms, and many other things. 6. Forcing kids to be outside in the hot weather for hours on end. Need I say more? It's horrible and unregulated. Arizona is not a cool place, we shouldn't have had to be outside for that long. 7. I had a girl (my roommate at the time) come in to my room and call me a ******, come up to me (I was sitting) and tell me to hit her, calling me a p**** and every other name she knew. She 'tried to kill herself' the next day so there was no punishment. Another girl, K literally beat on a younger resident, Z with no punishment because it was her first week.
