san marcos treatment center abuse

--- Quote from: "kakasaka101" ---I was appalled about how the staff treated me and other residents around me. They are NOT nurturing which is inexcusable since this is a treatment center and not a torture chamber. One, they were mostly too rough with the students, even when they were aggressive and would push and shove them until they were restrained. My first restraint I passed out from cause a staff accidentely was on my chest. I then woke up in the same place and was sore all over which told me that they didn't even come to my aid when I passed out. (which is where many end up dying because of that) There was once this young student who was picked up by her arms and shoved up against a wall as a staff was screaming at her. It was very hard to watch and she looked so scared and hopeless. They would often tease and bully other students to control them (which is hypocritical since many of the students were manipulative) and they would overuse punishments like freezes and AP's that often times wouldn't make any sense. I always lived on constant fear cause they often came at random even when I was behaving well.
Like if they took too long in the shower or took naps back in the unit when told not to cause you were not allowed to take naps during the day, it only was allowed at scheduled bedtimes weather they were tired or not. And often times when I did those small little things they would keep threatening me with freezes and AP's and then would eventually call in CSO which would then threaten me to seclusion (which they did once when I was asking for a sprite to make me feel better when I had a Stomach Bug. They didn't care cause I lost my vending privilege for the day while this other girl who was also sick DID have a sprite and she was on the lowest card level which was purple) which was ice cold and made me feel even worse both physically and mentally. Worst of all, I wasn't being aggressive towards them, I was just pleading for something to settle my stomach cause I was nauseous and in pain. They don't even care about your health or well-being, one time I had my dinner taken away by another staff member saying that I didn't deserve to eat after I got into an argument with another girl.
I just hope that one day this facility and others owned by Brown Schools will be shut down. Even after 5 years I still occasionally have nightmares about this place.

In what way is this funny! :jawdrop: It's not funny at all. There's even a blog http://rtcabuse.blogspot.com/ about having these types of facilities (including this one) to be investigated and shutdown. I'm trying my best in hopes that this message will go out to legislation to pass laws limiting and banning this so-called tough love.

I was here for over a month in 2007 and remember witnessing a very large (240+ lb) staff member grabbing a small wiry 16 or 17 yearold resident by the neck and slamming him headfirst into the gymnasium floor, fracturing his skull. Essentially this was caused by the staff member feeling disrespected when the resident walked away from him and stood against a wall when asked to do something. I remember there being a lot of commotion and worry over this on the part of the staff member and staff members in general as obviously something unacceptable had happened. But the paperwork was fudged and the man got away with it and later bragged t o our class about similar past incidents of getting away with assaulting residents.

Wow that's an all time low, was this kid alright? It seems that this staff member and many others are mentally ill. Was this guy with CSO? Because there usually the ones that would so something like this.

Haven't heard anything about San Marcos but I have heard of a program called Crash in San Diego that sounds like it could be pretty nasty.
