    So I had the opportunity to learn about the LGBTQIA Community. I honestly enjoyed the fact to show…read morerespect and acknowledge their world. It's hard to change your own roots and values. But we all humans and deserve respect. Everyone was very kind. It's just another place with lots of great people. They have awesome resources for those who identify themselves different than what you think. They have the right to decide their gender identity and sexual orientation. Their life, their choices. If you know anyone who is struggling because friends and family are not accepting them, refer them here. If you have a love one who decided to change, they also have resources for the family. It's a good place to know. Excellent resources, great assistance, great value. It is worth having the knowledge and the right attitude to help others.

    Based on my repeated experiences as a patient, I believe this facility demonstrates a systemic…read morefailure of patient care, continuity, communication, and medication management, creating unnecessary and dangerous risks to patient health. Since establishing care under Emily Browand, APRN, I have seen her only twice. She is routinely unavailable, and I am repeatedly reassigned to different providers without notification, consent, or communication. This lack of continuity is compounded by unanswered messages sent through the patient portal, leaving me without guidance or timely responses regarding critical aspects of my care. I ask plainly: Where is the commitment to patient safety and patient-centered care? Most alarming is the repeated mismanagement of my Cabenuva treatment, a medication with a strict administration schedule that is essential to maintaining therapeutic effectiveness and preventing resistance. I have been on Cabenuva since its initial release and am fully knowledgeable of the required treatment timeframes. I received my injection on September 27, yet my next dose was not administered until December 6, placing me significantly outside the recommended dosing window and out of compliance. When I questioned this deviation--appropriately and proactively--I was met with dismissiveness and attitude, as though advocating for my own health was inappropriate. This delay was not caused by me, but by failures in scheduling, provider availability, and medication coordination within this organization. The situation escalated further today. I had a confirmed appointment at 2:00 p.m. for my injection. I was contacted and asked to arrive earlier because: Emily Browand was again unavailable, and Dr. Cade was leaving early. I rearranged my schedule--despite having three other medical appointments the same day--to accommodate the clinic's request. After arriving two hours early, I was informed that no one could locate my medication, and I was told I would need to reschedule. This is unacceptable. A healthcare facility that administers specialty medications should never be unable to account for a patient's prescribed treatment--especially after confirming an appointment and requiring the patient to adjust their schedule. This represents a critical breakdown in medication management, internal communication, and basic standards of care. At this point, this is no longer an isolated incident but a pattern: Lack of provider availability Failure to communicate with patients Missed or delayed critical treatments Disregard for established medication protocols Indifference to the real health risks imposed on patients These actions have put my health and life at unnecessary risk. No patient should have to repeatedly fight to receive medically necessary treatment or worry whether their care team is capable of safely managing their treatment plan.

    If you want a nice shelter, this is the place it's got great beds and great privacy for when they…read moreneed to be alone with their infants or their self but if you wanna feel like you're not controlled or straight or being placed on a pedestal with rules and not be judged or assumed about or picked on or bullied by the other women or the kids bowling your kid then this isn't a great shelter They may offer you programs, but you have to bend and break every bit of your sanity to get there they say they help you with childcare when really they only help you when it's convenient or they play favorites. The staff here like to pick on him the week of opponents or the week of victims that being the women of the center and the women staff picking and choosing who they want to believe The upper tier and higher staff like the coordinators the males they're very crazy and explode randomly on everybody, they put leader ship in fear of rules on you or they kick you to the curb and kick you out. They let men stay there, which I think is very unfair to the women that have gone through domestic violence. I don't recommend this place to anybody unless you're looking for a temporary spot and good luck leaving immediately because they will just restrain you from doing so unless you have family support system for anybody to turn to they will keep you there at your will take you to the curb because you're feeling like you're being antagonized or picked apart, or in my case you were feeling like you were being picked on! This place isn't safe they've had Covid multiple times and they say they can't disclose that to the people that stay there when a person has Covid because of the CDC guidelines we all know that's not true you can disclose if someone has Covid so you can securely make everybody safe and feel the need to distance themselves.

    I moved here to Ridgecrest four years ago. I had been a counselor for many years so I called this…read morecompany to seek employment. They asked me if I would be willing to attend classes and become a volunteer. I was thrilled. I had friends from my home town, in the Kern River Valley, that were affiliated with this organization.One was an employee.The other friend worked for the county and she had been volunteering for High Desert Women's Center for many years. I did miss a few classes, but these ladies were more than willing to provide make ups for me, perhaps because I was respectful and courteous about it. The program does last for a couple of months, and these women go 'all out' to give the best education that they could. We attended mock trials, played games. I won one game. It had 8 pictures and it listed their crimes. You had to match the crime to the faces. LOL. We had the opportunity to participate in many fundraisers and events in our little community. The ladies took us on field trips to the hospital, police station and sheriff station, as well as the courthouse.We had speakers from the courts and the law enforcement agencies, and from Fleet and Family Services. A local Therapist came in and educated us about the different types of people we'd come across and 'how to gain empathy for them'. I was very interested to discover the diversity of these valient group of volunteers. The shelter is lovely and a wonderful place to be in transition. Having a history, myself, of being a domestic Violence victim in the 90s, I found this place and these women a miracle in action. In the 90s, the courts and law enforcement were not interested in helping victims. This shelter has a close relationship with Law Enforcement and has educated them, as well. Many Law Enforcement officers in this community now volunteer their time, as well. There is even one law enforcement officer that became one because of this organization. That I find wonderful because in the 90s, Law Enforcement was not kind to victims. I have read the review from Sarah. I cannot agree. If I did, I would be lying. On a scale of 1-10, I rate this company 10!
