    I feel the catholic charities needs to know what's really going on there because a lot goes on unnoticed or without anything being done. Psychiatric patients should be segregated and be given chance to get better with help. Too many are thrown all together. I want nothing to do with it anymore for I was traumatized. Men don't belong in there either. And the staff need experienced people not young people.
