Willow Springs Center Nevada and Youthcare Utah

Postby rachelturner3 » Mon Mar 02, 2009 8:49 pm

I am seeing if anyone has had experience with Willow Springs Center in Nevada, or Youthcare in Utah, both residential treatment centers.
This is our last hope for my 14 year old ADHD/ODD son.
I am terrified and heartbroken at having finally come to the decision to place him at one of these facilities, but the alternative is much worse Im afraid.
Please, if anyone has had experience, heard anything good or bad with these places, please respond.
Thank you,

My dear Rachel,

This could very well be a case of taking one step back to go many steps forward for your son and your faimily. You indicate that this is the only option left, so try to reap whatever you can from it and ensure that he (your son) gets the best treatment available.

I spent two weeks in a psychiatric hospital but it spurred me to do better in my life, and I have been on the up since then. that was all of 4 years ago now.
