While nobody wakes up wanting to go to a mental health hospital, specially on a TDO (temporary detention order), I must say The Pavilion turned out to be a God sent for my son! My son had 2 TDOs in Florida and after 3 days would check himself out. Thankfully, this last time it happened in Virginia and the system was different. In other words, he wasn't going to get released just because he wanted to. On the contrary, he was kept in the hospital until he got well. After 18 days, I finally had a conversation with my son and heard him as the son I knew and know he is in my heart. He had not been like this in 4 years. It would not have happened without the support of the staff in the Pavilion- the Case Workers: Tonya and Kamryn and the nurses in unit 400. Tonya and Kamryn were my lifeline to him being released successfully and at the right time, making sure I communicated with them to let them know what my son was like when he was healthy- this was crucial! These ladies love what they do and it shows. It is not easy to reach them, but have them on speed dial, because eventually you'll reach them. NOTE: The process overall can be VERY frustrating, especially because my son didn't sign the ROI (release of information) right away and nobody would tell me anything, and although that was VERY difficult to understand, especially because I was so far away, I continued to insist and call multiple times a day. At the end of the day, I was fighting for my son and his rights to get healthy. I personally traveled to the Pavilion from South Florida and confirmed it was a beautiful place, well kept with kind staff. It is not perfect and I'm sure they have a lot to work on, but the result? A son who went back to his baseline, who is in touch with his true self and a family that is more than grateful to finally have a chance to support him and love him back to the best version of himself. If your family member is here, my advice is this: 1) Be ready to call as many times as needed, to as many extensions as needed until someone hears you (they are busy doing the work and are not always available). You will be frustrated at times, but breath and keep going. Try to email as well. 2) Insist on requesting your family member signs the ROI- things got MUCH easier after that. 3) Visit your family member (ask for visiting hours and days)- I feel like when there is a familiar face, the staff begins to know who you are and they communicate more with you. 4) When you speak to your family member, tell him/her to cooperate and give them the names of the Case Worker so they can know who to turn to for help. Lastly, whoever you are and wherever you are, I pray God will give you and your family member a breakthrough. Don't lose hope and don't lose faith.

Thank you for everything. Despite the negative reviews, I can confidently say that the care provided at the Pavilion is deeply rooted in the patients’ well-being. Every action, even when difficult, was done with the intention of helping us stabilize and heal. The psych techs did the best they could with the resources available to them, and it showed. The night shift in particular was especially compassionate and grounded. The nurses were incredible, offering both medical support and emotional presence. The psychiatrists and doctors were thorough, respectful, and intentional in their care. And the social workers were kind and supportive throughout the process. My only recommendation would be for the social work department to offer more personalized accommodations for patients in unique situations. For example, I was in a long-distance relationship and wasn’t able to make a call to my partner despite advocating for it, which affected my emotional regulation. I also had college finals and final projects to complete during my stay, and unfortunately no efforts were made to help me navigate that. I understand they’re limited in scope, but a little extra advocacy in those areas would’ve made a big difference. Still, I am overwhelmingly grateful. My time at the Pavilion changed my life. And hopefully one day, I’ll walk back through those doors—not as an inpatient, but as a psychiatrist. Thank you for being part of my healing. — Erick Ayala Contreras
