Mental Health Providers in Gardner, Massachusetts

In the past I have visited Haywood Hospital at the Gardner MA location for Xrays, ultrasound and CT imaging. Heywood Hospital in my opinion is a Gem. Unlike other hospitals, Heywood is perfectly located away from chaotic traffic and congested busy streets. Including one-way streets as is the case in Boston or Worcester. In addition, Heywood provides plenty of free parking with cover for it's patients. The hospital is very clean, updated, and well maintained inside and out. The restrooms appear to be cleaned on a regular. The staff here have always been polite, professional, courteous and willing to help. Today I had an Xray scheduled and while at the patient registration I met Alice H. Alice has been working here for fifty-five years and was so friendly, kind, and helpful. Instead of given me verbal directions to the Xray department (It's been a while since my last visit) Alice H got up from her desk and accompanied me to the Xray area. Great lady I wish all staff were as kind and helpful as Alice H. I would also like to note the gentleman who preformed my Xray was equally as nice. 30 seconds to a minute and the entire process was complete. Conclusion: In the event someone needs imaging I highly recommend visiting Heywood in Gardner MA.

I was a resident there for about 6 months before I was discharged for not following the rules. I will always be grateful for the farm. I learned a lot of stuff there and interacting with the animals is something I will forever cherish. So if you or someone you know is trying to go to the farm here's a few things to keep in mind. Following the rules is very important and they are in place for a reason. You may think that some of them are stupid but again they are there for a reason. Take advantage of everything that is offered and if you need something ask. Always give 100% while working with the animals, you'll love it. The animals are special and I promise you you'll fall in love with them. DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS!!!!!. This Is one of the rules I had a hard time following. Some of them are on medication, some are on special diets and they can also get sick. The farm can be a really good place if you listen to suggestions, take your recovery serious and hold yourself accountable when you need to. Remember that this is your life you're fighting for and you are worth it.
