Testimonials

Carrier Clinic® was like a vacation. The whole property is so beautiful and serene. The staff is beyond wonderful. I was in the Blake building all the nurses and staff are awesome I found myself needing to talk plenty of times and everyone even when they were busy would take time to sit and talk with me and make me feel better they go beyond their job and treat u like a friend because they all really do care about you. My counselor Keren stopped at nothing to help me even taking me to the dentist to get a tooth pulled. She took numerous time away from her busy work schedule to take me on walks and talk about everything I was going through she really cared. She helped me get into a long term program. If u need help with addiction I strongly suggest going to Carrier. Carrier and everyone there saved my life. Let it do the same for you.

I don’t normally ever give a testimonial about a place, but Carrier Clinic®was excellent. My daughter was there for 1 week. Not only were the doctors and nurses super nice and kind, they connected and communicated with us, every step of the way. We’ve been to places, where the mistakes were many and dangerous! Carrier, may not be flawless, but for us, not 1 mistake was made!! My daughter left there, the best she has been in a long time. Thank you, Carrier Clinic®, you made a huge difference in the life of my daughter and her parents as well!!!!

To: APA Unit Staff, Thank you all for all the help and encouragement you gave to me. My nurses were absolutely wonderful. Sarah, thank you for taking the time to talk to me. Ann Marie, Thank you for your patience and kindness. The care from the whole staff was great. Thank you to my Docs. I think I was lucky to have them both. I am doing well in my IDP program. I believe I lucked out for having to find one on my own. It’s a great program and I’m going to meetings. Thank you all again.

I was recently a patient in the acute care unit of your facility. This was a very difficult experience for me. I am writing to say how well I was treated by Doctor Goodnick and the staff every one on the unit was wonderful. My social worker, all the nurses and MHT’s treated me with care and respect. Everyone took the time to listen and to try and make me as comfortable as they could. Please pass along a heartfelt thank you to everyone on your ACU staff.

Dear Members and Staff of Carrier Clinic®, I am writing to you to tell you how grateful I am for the care you gave me at your clinic 40 years ago. The last time I was at Carrier when in the summer of 1979. I am formerly from Mt. Lakes and Denville, New Jersey. I am so shamed of my behavior at Carrier years ago. I refused to take a bath for weeks, and was known as (“Miss Stink”). I live now in a low-income apartment and my greatest joy is bathing once and twice a day. My bath works very well. Here is $3.00 for some soap for an indigent patient, and a little shampoo. Carrier Clinic® gave faith, Hope and Charity, and brought me, most of all deep hope.

Best wishes to everyone for a joyful holiday season and thank you for everything that you have done; it has really made a difference in my life.

Dear Head person of the whole Carrier Clinic®, All I wanted to say is this is a wonderful hospital. The staff is marvelous and loving, caring, and respectful. It’s outstanding how the staff of Carrier Clinic® is so caring. This is one of the first hospitals that I have been where the staff cares so much for the patients. And they really listen to what we have to say. And they are really considerate to all patients. And if I could pick the best hospital in the world for loving, caring, respectful and considerate, it would be Carrier Clinic®. Well that is all I wanted to say.

I was a patient at Carrier Clinic® and want to thank you and the clinic staff. The doctors and nurses and aides were excellent. The food was excellent. I am feeling fine, back to my old self again and it feels great. Thank God for clinics such as yours.

The GAP group enabled me to see I wasn’t alone with my feelings. The morning stretch and relaxation groups awakened me and taught me how to let go and be peaceful. The arts and craft let me be a kid again and have fun. And the nurses, doctor and case manager guided me through my journey and really understood and assisted me in formulating my wellness plan.

How does a family properly thank a facility for giving their daughter back to them, far healthier both mentally and physically than she has been in over ten years?

First I would like to express our appreciation for your perseverance in seeing Michael’s recovery all the way through. I cannot thank you enough for getting him to a point where he could get his life back and now, I also have my husband back.

Being able to talk to the Chaplin filled me with hope and was very insightful. And getting to talk to the grief counselor and receiving an excellent tool to help me recover from my grief has been instrumental in my healing process.

I would like to wish a heartfelt thanks to all of the staff here at Carrier Clinic®, A.C.U. for all their kindness, comfort, caring, friendship and help.

I appreciate all your kindness and good care you gave me. My maintenance treatments have done wonder for me. Thank you so much. Please enjoy the chocolates.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for loving here and for reaching out to her when he has her vulnerable moments, for listening to what I am sure most days amounts to gibberish, but is sometimes heartfelt concerns that she has.

Your support, kindness, compassion, understanding and ability to turn my negative thoughts into positive ones mean so much to me. It helped me crawl out of the dark space I was in.
