Review: My Experience at Maple House (Cedar House)

I stayed at Maple House, a prenatal program at Cedar House, and had a mixed experience. My case manager, Laura Garcia, was unprofessional and struggled to separate her personal life from her work responsibilities. She went out of her way to contact my social worker with false allegations, which created unnecessary stress.

I also experienced racial slurs from other clients and reported these incidents to Laura, but she ignored my complaints and disregarded my concerns. This made the environment feel unwelcoming and hostile at times.

However, I want to highlight the exceptional support I received from Eva, a staff member who has worked with Cedar House for over 20 yiears. Eva was incredibly kind, professional, and motivating. She played a significant role in encouraging me to stay and complete the residential treatment program despite the challenges I faced.

While I am grateful for the positive impact Eva had on my journey, the unprofessional behavior of certain staff and the lack of action regarding serious complaints left much to be desired.

I have been trying to talk to someone/anyone that works at the Cedar House for over a month. I have sent emails, tried calling, left phone messages, left "chats" and still can't talk to anyone! Getting ridiculous... don't let their response fool you, yeah someone touched base with me, helped me? No, got back to me? No, I had to spend the morning trying to get someone on the phone again, only to be told nothing has been done. I have a time sensitive matter and I am running out of time. If these people actually come through then I will apologize for this comment....

I first stepped foot into Cedar House as a client on 11/02/2018. Since that day 5 years ago I have used the tools they gave me and have maintained sobriety ever since. The staff is amazing and they care deeply about their clients. Thank you for all that you do.

I paroled to Cedar House in 1993. I am still clean today because they gave me a life. They showed me how to live without the use of drugs.
I am so grateful because of this facility that I will always help them.
32 years clean now...

I have just completed the 90 day program here at Cedar House!! I more than highly recommend Cedar House!! The staff are "Real People ", that have been through it themselves, so they understand what I was going through when I arrived. They are very caring, and did ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, within their power to make me comfortable. I have been to other rehabs, including the "ritzy rehabs ", and absolutely none of them made me more comfortable than Cedar House.
Besides having experienced all the bad times that addicts/alcoholics face, the staff is very well educated. The detox was very comfortable.
I want to thank my case manager, Chris A., and the staff at Cedar House!! You changed my life in such a beautiful, positive way!! Michael R., you're the bomb!! Paul O., I love the incredible dedication!!!

Sincerely,
Cary O
Thank all of you very much!!

Worst experience in all of my excentince!!!!!!!!!!! I arrived there with very high hopes on this journey to get sober and get my life affairs in order.. I constantly explained that the meds they put me on were not only not working they were affecting my sanity! Didn't feel, safe didn't feel my conscerns where being validated at all!! Any switch in meds takes days. So u live in toture that no human being should ever indure!!!! I had a horrible reaction to their meds that they gave me. I had to be sent to the hospital. While at the e.r I was left there! With no way back. Cause I couldn't get any one on the phone. Kaiser/Fontana horrible place also..seen me as a p.o.s drug addict! Was shude away
had to call my own ride. Only thing I was told was sorry. Here take more of the meds that sent u to the e.r. .that should work.
Went back by my own accord only to be given insomnia for another 4days in a room with everyone snoring like freight train ?. E. O u have insomnia now sorry. Gives us another 2 days in that state while we try and get it together.
