Recently had my sister taken to common ground. This was her 2nd time to go there under court order.1st time she was evaluated and deemed to have a mental illness. I was so pleased that she was going to get the help she so dispertly needed. She was moved to the 4th floor for observation. when she got released she was diagnosed to be mentally ill .the 2nd time this past march, common ground took her in under court order, I showed that I was legal guardian, they said they were going to keep her again. i was told to come back in am. and bring her some I went to my mothers house to get clothes, the next morning, to my surprise she was HOME!!! I called the lawyer. He said she shouldn’t be home. Called common ground, asked why and how my sister was released! Oh we can not discuss it they said. But I was not notified! Did not seem to matter. So next day I drive out to common ground again, NOW I am told she was evaluated by the common ground team and deemed, NOTTOBEMENTALYILL. this after being in the hospital for 30 days back in November .so in a 180 minute interview by the crack COMMONGROUNDTEAM, the team decided she was not mentally ill. now just try calling and talking to those folks out there., to get answers and be ready for a run around! They told me they did not keep records and the next day they were sent to their admin bldg, so any body I talked to could not answer any thing, even if she was given any medication! So now I had to go to the admin bldg to get the records, of course you can’t get them the same day, so I take off work just to sign the paper work! They say they will b ready tomorrow, at230, but be there no latter than 330 now I have to take time off work again! So I get there and sign more papers, just to get what is mine to have, oh they say we must see your guardian papers. That I say is in with the papers, I showed to common ground which they copied. All I can say I hope nobody else should go through this merry go round ride they call common ground. Their right hand does not know what the left is doing. If you should seek answers good luck, to date I have not been contacted by any one to tell me why my sister was released, with out contacting the two court appointed GUARDIAN, myself and the lawyer!!! At the very least you might think, you know, as follow up to call and see how my sister is doing. I guess after 180 minutes your time is up and we really don’t care anymore! That’s how it comes across to me.
