The staff there used police style restraints that includes the prone restraint, the wall restraint and the staff's favorite the escort seated restraint. The restraint is that two staff put on a seat and push your head down and then have legs in a split position. A kid that use to live there said he gave her bleach the night before her death. That was a lie, because she die from a heart attack. That's my thoughts of living thereAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01833347514397126875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5748251357314049289.post-2501858256064714772016-05-13T08:55:43.350+02:002016-05-13T08:55:43.350+02:00I was there when this happened.

She died in this facility and there was a hospital pretty much across the street. I was also a victim of this "prone restraint" at the hands of staff members working at NA 18...one instance caused my AC joint to fracture, shoulder dislocated and since then I have had to have 3 major rotator cuff surgeries as a result of the damage caused by the staff at New alternatives. I don't know how that place is still open..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09006951571761574253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5748251357314049289.post-5520257164846477632012-04-19T01:21:56.687+02:002012-04-19T01:21:56.687+02:00As a former employee of New Alternatives Inc.

The program is chaotic and poorly run due to too many residents and too few staff.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10708564572962814708noreply@blogger.com
