I do not recommend Pine Rest for anyone looking for sincere long-term help, and certainly not to anyone that isn’t Christian. I voluntarily committed myself a few years ago during a severe mental health crisis. I hadn’t slept a wink in 4 days and was dealing with a serious bout of depression and generalized anxiety disorder. I went there in the hopes of changing my atmosphere and getting professional help in dealing with my issues, and of course to get a little sleep! I explained my situation at take-in and they seemed very sympathetic to my situation. I stressed that my lack of sleep was driving me crazy and that at the moment, above anything else, I first and foremost needed to rest. After doing the routine check-in procedure I was shown to my room where I went to lay down to rest. I was immediately chastised by the nurse saying I should attend group that was happening at that time. I told her I had been sleep deprived and she responded unsympathetically that isolating myself was not healthy and that I was “expected to participate in group while I was there”. When I was able to get some sleep I was constantly being woken up with a flashlight in my face. I get that they have to check on their patients but the way they go about it is extremely callous and insensitive. You can’t even take a dump in peace at this place without them opening the door on you and asking if you’re okay. Despite being a voluntary admittance and having no history of suicidal tendencies, I was constantly treated like I was a threat to myself. They do not provide individualized care, they treat everyone exactly the same regardless of their needs or what they’re dealing with. As a smoker and user of caffeine, my stay was made even more difficult by the fact that they deny you of both. Their reasoning for not allowing caffeine is that it might make the patients agitated. Well agitated is an understatement for how I felt being deprived of both nicotine and caffeine. Their response to not smoking is nicotine patches. However, patches don’t work for everyone and if you’re gonna give someone a patch containing nicotine, why not just let them smoke? When I checked into Pine Rest I was taking four prescriptions. One was an anti-depressant, one for anxiety, one for sleep, and the other for blood pressure. By the time I checked out of Pine Rest I was prescribed to TWELVE medications. It’s like their idea of treatment is loading you up on tons of medication and hoping that does the trick. And as for group therapy, be prepared to have Jesus shoved down your throat. I’m a secular humanist and don’t subscribe to the Christian faith. They ask your religion when you check-in, as if that has any relevance to your mental condition. Despite making it clear I’m not Christian, that didn’t stop them from forcing it on me every possible opportunity. I couldn’t figure out if they were trying to treat my depression and anxiety or convert me to Christianity. By day two at Pine Rest I realized this wasn’t for me and I’d be better off finding a counselor and having my condition treated at an out-patient facility that wasn’t faith based. Of course you’d be crazy to think you could just walk out of this place, even if you were a voluntary patient. I ended up having to stay an additional three days before they allowed me to leave. By the time I walked out the door I was more agitated and stressed out than the day I walked in there. I don’t doubt Pine Rest has helped people and that’s great, but I can’t in good conscience recommend this place. Unless your idea of decent mental health care is having tons of medication forced down your throat, being preached to, woken up every 10-15 minutes with a flashlight shone in your face, and being treated like you’re a threat to yourself even when you have no history of suicidal tendencies, I suggest finding help elsewhere.

Previously our needs have been met and we have been satisfied with the care given in the out patient services. I called today to hopefully move up an appointment with Dr. Kist. Only to be told, "She does not have any availability before your appointment date, but we can put you on a cancellation list" I said ok, "Thank you, have a nice day"....click Did you think you ask WHY I wanted/NEEDED to move that appointment up? Did you think to ask if we wanted/needed to see someone else? People are calling you because they need/want help. How about you HELP!!! Seriously, this is extremely frustrating! If you truly care, don't reply to this review, someone call me and help me!

Pine Rest has good potential and they seemed to genuinely care at the beginning. Dr. Bute and Erin, the case manager, are the two individuals I was in close contact with while my son stayed here. He was inpatient from 10/23-11/05. He stated multiple times that he still wanted to commit suicide and that he wasn’t ready to come home, even going as far as to self harm with a fork in this facility. Erin and Dr Bute agreed it was attention seeking behavior and that he no longer fit criteria for inpatient, not to mention the weather was turning bad on Wednesday and for safe driving purposes they were discharging him 11/05/19 (direct quote from Erin). I picked my son up and asked multiple times if they truly thought he was just looking for attention but not a danger to himself or others. Erin came in at my request to speak with my mother and I and told us to practice clinical ignoring which is a technique used to discourage inappropriate actions and language. It is used to disengage during inappropriate actions including self harm and verbalizations and then when my son changed the topic to a more appropriate topic we could re- engage. My 15 year old son took his own life 6 hours after we arrived home from Pine Rest. I am sharing this review because I didn’t fight hard enough for my son. I should have refused his discharge and demanded a longer stay- I trusted what the professionals said over what my son was trying to tell me. Advocate for your babies!

The quality of treatment I've received from my outpatient therapist has been spectacular, but if not for that, I wouldn't continue coming to Pine Rest. The level of disrespect, and condescension I've recieved from their clerical and phone staff is atrocious. And quite frankly, I would expect better from an establishment that is meant to serve and help people who struggle with mental illness or stress, such as myself.

All the staff were rude to me except for like two. You are not allowed to touch, AT ALL and I am very affectionate. There were people telling me what to do 24/7 and I just need to relax at times but did not let me. They would get mad at ME 24/7 while another dude kicked out a door frame and I would do small things like try and help keep me and my roommates room tidy by cleaning up after her. (I got permission from her) It also did not come to mind that they'd practically yell at me the 1st time they caught me doing something wrong. I am also a very very sensitive person so when you get mad at me and punish me I'll punish myself over and over and over because I feel terrible about whatever I did when it's not that big of a deal, looking back. So I was not even allowed to do "hand hugs." The only people I was allowed to hug were the staff. When I was having an anxiety attack and ACTUALLY went to someone for help they COMPLETELY ignored the fact that I was not in a good spot and I was shaking (that's how you can tell I'm not in a good spot.) Then I also get either angry afterwards or before because that's just me. Gave me a false schedule. It claimed there was a "physical activity" or an "activity to get your energy out." Never happened. That's not even the worse part.. they seemed to get very upset with ME because I started cutting myself with a toothbrush because I would never get any "how are you doing?" Unless I was hiding or any "Do you need something" when I actually needed something, only when I was in a good mood and didn't need anything. Never even got a "Do you need your anxiety medication, to help you relax" at least when I was anxious or having an anxiety attack. So had a very bad experience by them lacking to give me the attention I needed, although I just wanted to go home didn't even want attention unless I asked for it. Not very good experience gained, I now have nightmares about going back because I was felt like I was lacking so much "love" or "people caring about me" by a lot and just felt more suicidal than when I was not in the hospital. So had not a great experience, wouldn't recommend it.

I have PTSD from my experience there last year. but at least they got me on better meds

Therapists share protected health information about other patients, lots of gossiping. This organization sees you only as a number. They don't use evidence based approaches, they also speak down to you as if they don't respect you. They almost mock you and question your intentions to get care. Very high cost for substandard care. Beautiful campus though.

Nope Nope

Staff does not know what there doing and wont even let me use the bathroom. If you need new meds just do spectrum health

I really appreciate the incompetent debt collectors who don’t understand how to collect payments. It’s so fun dealing with that. I feel like I’m being punished, like I’ve done something so awful in my life that I had to be put in this facility just to suffer for years afterwards.

Amazing staff that helped our family SO much!!

Justin Cowles

The only reason you get 3 stars from me is cause I liked the 80% of the people there that worked there. But you should be rated lower for pushing to much medication without talking to the patient first, you get 0 stars for that. .natural hoslistic healthcare is better. Than all that poison.sorry guy's, I love you and need your help with another family member, I believe that you're loving and good people. I have seen it for myself. Research pharmakeia sorcery Rockefeller drugs. Before you try poisoning people. By all means no offence.your against the will of God believe it or not. My people are killed for the lack of wisdom of God's word. You're a faith based organization, please start acting like it. Perhaps i,m not your average ignorant person. You may not want to talk to me again. Pray to God for answers

I learned some very helpful and useful information while attending outpatient groups and also in partial inpatient treatment. I feel some of the program needs to a little help and change with how the groups are run since it can be tedious at times. But overall I was very impressed with the counselors there and very thankful for their help and support.

I drove from Muskegon for an August 26 3 pm therapy session. I left plenty early, but did get delayed with 131 detour. As I was driving on 68th Street I pulled into a drive with brick objects on each side at 2:55. (Main Entrance was ahead, but sign is recessed so you can’t see it until you are right there.). Apparently, that is a former entrance and is now the service drive. I tried to go to east to the main entrance 4 different times, however the only way to do this is to go all the way to the back of the property and work my way back. I arrived at the proper building at 3:04. I talked the receptionist and she called back to Jamie’s office at 3:05. There was no answer. Then, she walked back to her office. When she returned she said Jamie was not there and had left for the day. It was 3:11. I was not asking to stay any longer than scheduled. I believe I had 30-45 minutes remaining that could have been used for therapy. I was told to leave! Shortly after I called Jamie’s supervisor, Megan Rodebush, and left a voicemail and shared my frustration and asked for a return call. Immediately after I checked with the receptionist who confirmed that Megan was still in the building. I did not receive a return call then, and as of 4 pm on August 31, still have not been contacted. 6 days! Concerns: 1. Leaving early, before the scheduled time for therapy is done. 2. No follow up from Supervisor. 3. I asked for Meagan’s Supervisor and was told they would not give that to me. 4. Communication procedures 5. Lack of Concern for patients 6. Lack of follow hroough 7. Staff ownership of organization

Should be no starts we are filing a lawsuit for you guys ripping my daughters jewelry out and hold her against her will making her do a strip search this place is not for mental health to get better they will make it worse I am filing a lawsuit to get you shut down

Went on website found the name and # of someone who is supposed to be able to help with interventions. There was no way to use extension provided. The person who answered the phone was clueless even after I gave this providers name, finally transferred my call to someone who then transferred my call to appropriate extension. I left a message have not heard back. Initially they tried to get patient info from me which I did not give because my brother in law who called just before I did provided that info and they refused to talk to him even to provide general info about performing an intervention because the person is a current patient and they hid behind HIPAA even though he was NOT trying to elicit patient’s personal information. What good is an intervention if the patient is aware of family trying to set one up? Why should it matter if person is a patient if it’s NOT the patient’s therapist? What about the patient being a danger to themselves and others? Is there not some sort of legal obligation?

I’m sorry to hear others have not experienced the success I have with Pine Rest. My experience with them, and in my early recovery group and now my relapse prevention program has been nothing but positive. I have been sober for over a year, and whenever I’ve needed extra “emergency” help, I have received it. While I don’t know anything about the mental health side, I can tell you their addiction recovery program is too notch. Obviously, you have to WANT the help and be serious in your sobriety, or no organization will help or be a “magic bullet”. I have not had religion “shoved down my throat” in any way, shape or form. I truly cannot say enough good things. I looked up a place for detox on my own, and after talking with them and my primary care doctor, decided I could try at home and attend biweekly meetings rather than start with inpatient detox, so I cannot speak to that, but almost all in my group have went…some more than once, and they have not said one negative thing. If you are looking for support for any kind of addiction, this is your place if you live in Michigan.
