"Erskine Ward Rampton Hospital Mental Health Pathway"

I think the Staff tries to keep everyone safe, People with problems have time in their rooms, time out as they say. I don’t really feel unsafe, perhaps the tables going over in the dining room is a bit wild but it is exciting.

Being effective. Talk a lot and say nothing. The Psychologists said they guess what people are thinking kind of sort of and use their hands. They're Pacifists, terribly pleasant with all of that though. I suppose that’s what they're taught in university. Not an exact science, this mental health.

Stop trying to get me to jump through hoops on fire before I can move on. Get me a captain’s cap then I could advertise. We are given our meals on a plate the meals are regular we are very lucky like that, we have clean bedding our own rooms not like years ago ( dormitories).  The female Patients don’t mix with Male Patients ..why not.

I think the Staff hear what they want to hear. I get on better with some staff than others, depends on age group and what time zone we are in. The Staff spend too much time writing up notes and recording negative incidents that don’t really natter.

Patients appear to be judged on what comes out of their mouths. Many Patients have the gift of the gab and could talk hind legs off a Donkey, not by what a person actually does. To improve our community Turn the TV off sometimes and have a rational debate without the TV being involved. Give everyone the chance to speak not just the ones whom manipulate the groups.
