In August and November I was taken to the 136 suite I never knew about it August was my 1st time. At the time I didn't take it in on the first visit but I've never had care like it I ended up on a section 2 from the 1st visit and looking back they had no other choice thank god they did because I wouldn't be here now.
Everything was sorted out very effectively the assessment as well seeing the drs and the social worker I could tell they did care and before the assessment the care from the nurse was fantastic. I was taken to suite 136 for my safety only I was there as a patient I can not imagine the trauma of been taken to custody with other people shouting banging on the doors etc I felt so safe it a shame it got to that point in the 1st visit having been a victim of a crime and having no support from anyone. As time passed having to deal with my current situation I was having more breakdowns eventually thinking I can't do it anymore it's to much on my own and in a way I was saved physically and mentally.
November I was taken back there as police were concerned but this time I was handcuffed which made me feel I'm like a criminal but thankfully I was taken back to Hollins park and was allowed home with extra support the same nurse came from the first visit I even asked for her because the 1st time she was the only person that gave me care in months so I was pleased it was her again. The police I guess were OK with me apart from handcuffs they really didn't need to do but it was officers I've never met and they can't take that risk.
I hope that I never end up back there but it's good to know that it's there for patients.
