Oceans Behavioral Hospital Greater New Orleans: Westbank Campus

This place is the most unprofessional facility there is. If I wrote everything I went through in this place you all would be reading a book. Please DO NOT send your family or friends here. The staff and nurses do not treat the patients like human beings. They are rude and extremely disrespectful. The nurses are lazy and ignorant. They do not listen to the patients concerns they simply ignore you. This place was hell on earth and I would not recommend it to anyone. It needs to new staffing or to be shut down. You are literally locked up in a cage. The facility is extremely small and you can not go outside at all. They have yet to open visitation and they are THE ONLY facility that has yet to open visitation. They are still blaming it on covid. To this day I am still traumatized from going here and still fighting to see a change in this facility. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about my experience here. It is absolutely filthy. The facility looks like a prison and is extremely small. I was physically assaulted by an ET CeCe. She was the most unprofessional ET I have ever encountered. She also punched another patient in the face and nothing was done. They are all ghetto and they will do anything to you because they have no consequences. When I was assaulted the charge nurse on duty did absolutely nothing about it. I lost my mind in this place however I do not regret going because I will not stop reporting and calling corporate until something is done about this facility.

I never will admit that I'm a crazy person! Thank you oceans Gretna louisiana. It's a new facility that needs repair,which makes it way harder on the staff. The Staff Black or White are great people,and go way over board on treating patients like their own family. Very comforting place to be mentally repaired.

I was admitted to this facility over2 yrs ago now and it was because I was in a place in my life where I thought all hope was lost I had a lot guilt after my mother passed away I wanted to die! I was at behavior for a week and half and I must say it was just what I needed I cannot say enough of how much care and understanding and interest of the staff to help and bring about my understanding of me and why I tried and wanted to kill myself, it was intense to talk in a group and to know you are not alone and I also revived one one with counselors. T I would only give 5 stars for this place for me it was the best place for me at that time in my life!!

This is a terrible place and has hurt my entire family by murdering my grandfather. Unfortunately my grandfather was having mental and emotional problems and (without my family’s prior understanding of the terrible circumstances at this hospital) was transferred here. In less than 36 hours, my grandpa had mysteriously went into cardiac arrest- 2 hours after they called complaining to me that he wouldn’t take his meds and was being “troublesome”. I am 100% positive they forced too many meds down my grandfathers throat to make him be quiet and settle down, knowing that too much psychiatric meds can put any person into cardiac arrest ESPECIALLY an 83 year old man. He was very healthy and happy prior to this. This place needs to be shut down ASAP. On top of everything the rooms are dark and depressing and you can literally hear people screaming and crying in the rooms. My grandpa would still be here if it weren’t for this disgusting place.
