I spent 7 weeks in Belmont Private as an inpatient last year.nI had no real issues with My Doctor, Ward Nurses or any of the Group Leaders. If I could just say, if you ask for day leave, make sure it's been recorded in your notes, otherwise you're not going anywhere!nF Wing Nursing Staff were great, only one seemed to be annoyed about everything.nI did wish that windows could have been opened perhaps a grille of some kind so you still can't access it and take off. After 7 weeks, even with regular linen changes, it gets very stuffy and stale. Just bugged me. I hate stale smelly rooms.nThe Dining Room staff were brilliant. Friendly and accommodating. I thought the food was really good. Great variety.nNot sure anyone wants to be hospitalized ever, but I was grateful for the care I received.

I am a 47 Year Old War Veteran DVA Gold.   Ten years service in the Army then a further ten years service in the Australian Federal Police.  I have been an inpatient at seven hospitals for Chronic PTSD and compared to them Belmont is definitely not a Melbourne Cup Winner.  I also have FND and have psychiatric seizures.  There is no specialist ward for PTSD Veterans or Emergency Services which is different to the previous hospitals I have attended.   It has been a struggle thus far over 2.5 weeks.  My Psychiatrist is sensational and should be awarded a medal.  A majority of the nurses paint every patient with the same brush, I asked for medication and was asked what poison will it be today.nnI had not slept for 34 hours nor micro sleeping, I informed the nurses station at the 4 hr mark after receiving medication and was offered more which had nil effect due to a trauma trigger.  34 hours later no medication had been working on me so I was sleep deprived, and paranoid and hallucinating.  I was constantly told we will call your doctor who was on leave at the time but received nil feedback on the outcome of the call.  At the 34 hr mark a new nurse came to see me and asked how’s it going.  I was so anxious, paranoid and delusional and said how do you think I’m going you know I haven’t slept for 34 hours from your shift hand over and I have received no further help. I sat on my bed agitated and the male nurse said I was been rude and aggressive.  I asked how, he said because your sitting in your bed raising your voice.  I had my Black Labrador Assistance Dog with me from DVA as I have him for CPTSD and seizure alert.   If I was aggressive he would have reacted, I was upset and delusional.  It doesn’t help been well built 6 foot 2 and 105 kg with tattoos as there was already a perceived stereotype and been a veteran by this nurse.  I said I want to leave, he said ok.  So I packed my luggage, had my assistance dog with me and left the hospital and started to sleep in a park as I live in Hervey Bay and would be calling DVA the next morning to kindly arrange for me to come home.  A manager rang me and asked me to come back as they were worried about me.  I advised that I would.  On return a was transferred away from this nurse to another wing under special observation’s right outside the new nurses station.  Later I was seen by the psychiatrist after 36 hours of no sleep and he was so wonderful, understanding, caring and concerned about my welfare.  Medications were then administered to get me to sleep which they did.  There needs to be more education to Nurses that work here that Complexed PTSD Veterans are complexed and a kindness, compassion and a willingness to help would be more beneficial.  I also have a sign on my door stating assistance dog in residence please knock before entering.  50 Per cent of the nurses knock the remainder just open the door, one female nurse did so and found me naked just after having a shower.  She quickly evacuated my room.   To any Veteran that wants to come here be aware it will be challenging especially with the nurses contemporary skills knowledge and attributes when dealing with veterans by SOME of the nurses is not just lacking it is shameful for Belmont and also makes the patient feel unsafe.  I will not be filling in a standard internal patient feedback form when I discharge as it has nil impact.   That is why I posted this review to enable social media to be aware of some of the happenings here and allow yourself to gain a universal insight into my review and it’s my review only as some patients have had excellent treatment here with extremely positive outcomes.   In summary this has certainly put me off ever recommending Belmont to my DVA Brothers and Sisters.nnI have already submitted a feed back form regarding the 1st week of the PTSD program with a lot of positives and very in-depth descriptions.  I invite Belmont Executive to peruse it  before replying to this review on Google.nNicholas Hodge Army and Australian Federal Police Retired

I have been seeing Dr Scott Newman for quite some time now, and i cannot put into words how his work has helped me so far. Dr Newman is very gentle, caring and professional. His side kick Monica also deserves a massive mention. Monica has been the glue that has held me in Dr Newmans care. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Even when i was being treated as an in-patient, Monica was able to help me settle in and fixed a couple of small issues i had.nnBelmont for me has been life changing and i have no problems continuing to be treated here.nnThank you Dr Newman & Monica.

I was a patient of the psychiatrist Dr Lu for almost 18 months, continuing only on my GP's advice for the sake of consistency she only meant well. Today, I finally decided to end our sessions. Although initially upset, both my partner and I are relieved by the decision. Trusting my instincts turned out to be the right choice; I felt that the psychiatrist was motivated by profit and displayed egotism. His approach was neither consistent nor reliable, often seeming improvised. We are looking forward to better peace of mind. Remember to prioritise your well-being and care for the environment. Peace.

I've been in several psych hospitals in the past but this was my first time in Belmont. I have never had such an awful experience in a hospital. I came out much worse than I went in. They are completely incompetent and unable to arrange the simplest of things. You will be ignored, even if you are in a crisis. They will promise you they have the meds you need available, then they don't have them when you go to get them. This hospital is unsafe and don't expect to get any real help here. I felt more alone than I did pre-admission when I actually live alone.nI will never step foot in this hospital again.
