Peninsula Village wants comments - show 'em love.

Would you like to share a positive comment about your experience as a patient, or as a family member of a Peninsula patient? Or, perhaps you’d like to recognize one of the caregivers at Peninsula who has been especially kind or helpful to you. We’d like to hear from you today, and we’ll be glad to pass along your feedback.

Our goal at Peninsula is to exceed your expectations in providing excellent patient care. As we continue to identify ways to enhance your experience, help us recognize and reinforce those individuals that helped achieve this goal.


They want positive comments only, not surprisingly.  Keep it positive - "I'm positive PV's treatment did damage I'll never recover from,"  "I'm positive PV did nothing but drain my family's money and subject me to mental and physical abuse camouflaged as 'treatment'.

Keep it positive, and give special mention to staffers and clinicians who made lasting impacts on you.

Yesterday I called Country Inn & Suites to let them know that if they allow PV in their building for the parent meeting on the 27th there will be a protest.
Here's the vid:

Just make sure to bring a videocamera to the protest (and keep it rolling the whole time).  Ain't no evidence like video evidence.

Unfortunately the PV protest ended up being a one-man protest, but I still consider it a sucess. Near the beginning, a hotel worker drove up to get the mail and said something like "You stay right there or we'll call the police". She can be seen in the first few frames of the video. Then awhile later someone in the hotel called 911 and a Cary police officer showed up. He was very professional and let the hotel people know that I could stay since I was doing nothing illegal. A different hotel worker pulled over beside me as she was leaving and asked about PV. I let her know the basics and she seemed shocked to hear that a group like PV conducts meetings there. About this time, the PV meeting ends. As a vehicle was leaving a female passenger told me she thought the police told me to leave. You can see her in the video as well. As the PV group was leaving I did spot "Bob" Pegler, who ignored me avoided eye contact. Hopefully next time we can have more people attend! Here's the video:

Epic.. My hat is off to you act.da.. I've talked about protesting solo, but I've never actually done it. You've got grit kiddo.

What Che said.  You got grit like John Wayne.  The best part was the hotel employee becoming aware of the nature of PV, hopefully that will spread.  

That woman in the car who asked why 5-0 hadn't taken you away?  She looks exactly the way I imagined a PV loving parent would.  Bet she votes Republican.

Thanks, act.da.

To act.da:

Good job. Thanks for posting the video and audio.

Is that in Raleigh North Carolina? I used to train in the research triangle near Durham. It's about an 8 hour drive for me.

Where is PV and is it a protestable facility? Or is Country Inn the only avenue for that?

It's great to see the activity, I would hope that next time you don't have to go it alone. Great job getting footage.

Yep, that's Raleigh in North Carolina. I haven't posted a formal notice/invitation for the next protest, but another one is being organized for the same place and time on November 22nd. There are also parent meetings like this one in Knoxville TN and Atlanta GA, but as far as I know there are no protests planned for them.
Peninsula Village is located in the Knoxville/Louisville area of Tennessee. Their address is 2431 Jones Bend Road but they use almost all of the westernmost 1/3rd of the peninsula. A protest at the facility is not something I'm worrying about right now, though there should be one there by the end of next year.

Thanks for the info,

Though I doubt I could make it in November, there is a possibility that I could make it to the Tennessee or Georgia locations. I sometimes drive down that way in the winter anytime between X-mas and the end of March. If you planned a protest for the Tennessee location, that would be a lot easier since it is a much shorter drive for me.

Keep me posted and hopefully I can join you at some point.

Tony
