"Effective care in a Happy environment"

My Partner was admitted to Rougemont ward after a severe mental breakdown. He was so bad that he could barely function. After 8 weeks he was sectioned in order to try and sort the problem more effectively as the crisis mental health team were having no luck. In four weeks the staff had him back to normal and he was able to return home. The atmosphere at the ward is very informal and happy and over the 4 weeks that I was visiting regularly I got to know the staff and other patients quite well.
