The Woodlands Unit

If your getting gangstalked with electronic harassment it's a good place to go

The staff were awful. Ride, unhelpful, very dismissive and the majority have such a heavy African accent I could not understand them (and I speak 3 languages). Many things like phone charger, blanket, tracksuit bottoms just vanished from my room, I complained but was ignored. There is NOTHING to occupy your mind, no magazines, no telly , nothing. I don't have a mental health condition but can imagine getting one of I didn't leave. The staff need to be replaced immediately with real care professionals. It's hell!

Its really sad the staff have no compassion for their patients. Carly was not very helpful at all and when speaking with her she just wanted to get off the phone.

The majority of staff were rude and disinterested in the patients (I was on Millbrook ward April 2021 for four weeks), there are a few staff who care but they are overwhelmed with workload, so they couldn't give patients the time to help them talk. The centre was more concerned with outward appearance than actually helping people - they wanted to palm you off to mind (who are also absolutely no help either) Oxleas really do need to completely retrain the vast majority of staff. It felt like they wanted to get shot of people as quickly as possible

Woodlands is the best ward Ive ever been on. Staff are lovely and caring (esp Susan, Bayo and Remi Ill never forget you guys saved me). Bit sad the cheesy mash is off the menu now but otherwise 5*
