I was a patient at Wernersville State Hospital for almost 2 years. During that time I both witnessed and experienced neglect, medical malpractice, and abuse.

A short while after I left I had to call adult protective services on them because they were severely neglecting someone there that I knew. To the point where their life was at risk.

Wernersville State Hospital is a horrible place and needs to be shut down. There is one lady in there who had been there for 30 years.
