I CALLED ASH TO INQUIRE ABOUT EMPLOYMENT. WHO EVER THE OPERATORS ARE THAT ANSWERS THE PHONE ARE VERY RUDE. THE FIRST TIME I CALLED, THEY PICKED UP AND HUNG UP. I CALLED BACK, AND SHE PUT ME ON HOLD FOR ALONG LONG TIME. AND WHEN I ASKED HER ABOUT IF THEY ARE HIRING, SHE GAVE ME ANOTHER NUMBER TO CALL AND HUNG UP ON ME. I CALLED BACK TO LET HER KNOW THAT THAT WAS RUDE AND SHE HUNG UP ON ME AGAIN. SO AFTER THAT. I WOULDNT DARE APPLY TO A PLACE LIKE THAT. I CAN IMAGINE IF SHE IS RUDE LIKE THAT, WOULD THE OTHER STAFF BE LIKE. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.

I was here when I was a teenager. I was abused at Austin State Hospital. Charles Fischer a child psychiatrist who used to work here was convicted of child molestation and fired. Most of the kids here are from single parents. Some of them are here for self mutilation. Most teens outgrow self mutilation theres studies on this. Austin State Hospital is state funded. Medicaid pays for 70 % of antipsychotics. These drugs have high noncompliance rates. Another tax waste.

What do people want from a state hospital the staff did the best job possible on a state budget. My only suggestion is to when talking to the judge stay calm and lie a lot you will get out when you want.
