Dr Collins threatened if i did not take them he would which he did in fact label me 5150/5152. I sat before his peers and a virtual court. Which findings resulted me to released from his and the hospitals care. Perhaps this over use of authority and overdosing of drugs which caused me harm for ten days. Is the same type of abuse. Rated #1 Health Care of Tulare County. Only found to be a statement of truth by the CEO according to the patients rights material provided by the hospital at admission time. Photos and material are outdated. Look at the partnership between Lindsay Gardens and Kaweah. That administrator was removed from her position from Lindsay Gardens in 2018 for labor law and patient rights violations. I saw to it and filed criminal acts against the facility and her personally. Voted #1 Healthcare During my recent stay at Kaweah Health Care I was repeatly given large doses of stericol 6 tabs well exceeding my 120lb frame 5’4″.
