This is easily the worst place I've ever been to. They lied about having equine therapy, which is the primary reason I decided to come there for treatment. While I was there my case manager refused to call and confirm my short term disability leaving me unable to pay my rent. The groups are pretty good. The staff here are sweet and caring, but managment is not. When I arrived in January I explained that I had a upcoming cancer screening and that I needed to be discharged by the 14th of February as I had already purchased my flight ticket. They waited until four days before my flight and then informed me that I needed proof of my procdure. When I proved my procedure, they finally gave me my discharge. The pools been out of service for a long time. It's algae filled and smells awful. This facility is falling apart, broken railings are in the back of the building, its a...

On January 30, 2025, we received a phone call from an unnamed employee regarding my son’s infringement of a major rule governing patients at Harmony Hills. She told us his belongings were being collected, and he would be discharged from the treatment program. No other information was given pertaining to whether he would reside in a detention center or need legal counsel. We have reached out to several staff members leaving messages, but no one responds to our request. He supposedly has his mobile phone but neglects to reciprocate our inquiry. His mobile device may have been confiscated as instructed by staff personnel. Hopefully, he has a conduit to follow for coming home soon. We realize failure to follow the governing rules has consequences. If he failed to follow the rules fraternizing with females, he must answer to the repercussions. We accept the facts. However, we do not know...

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible care my loved one received at Harmony Hills. After entering their mental health program, the clinical team made a world of difference in her journey. Diagnosed with schizophrenia, she faced significant challenges, including ongoing hallucinations, but the support she received was truly transformative. The dedication and compassion of the team were evident from day one. They spent ample time working with her, helping her navigate her condition and providing the guidance she desperately needed. Their expertise in medication management was particularly impressive; they took the time to explain the importance of her treatment plan, ensuring she felt empowered and informed about her health. It was heartening to see her progress, and I truly believe that without their support, it would have been a much more difficult journey. I highly...
