Meridian doesn’t care about the patients or staff. They only care about keeping their beds full so the directors can make bonuses. They actively put staff in danger by refusing to discharge patients when they get aggressive or cause major problems for staff members (they will only do so after multiple— and I mean several— of these interactions). They hardly train at all, and there’s little to no supervision of RS staff, which is highly problematic. Staff members oftentimes treat patients like they are subhuman, and disregard many of their needs. It’s really a mess. I wouldn’t ever recommend working here, especially if you actually care about mental health. They take people off of drugs just to feed them Seroquel or some other pharmaceutical.
Not to mention, extremely chaotic work environment. Always understaffed and never regarding staff needs. Not worth your time.
