What Our Clients Are Saying About Us

Well my case manager referred me to Ascend. It’s amazing. There’s no drs and no nurses. You bring your on medicine if you have any. There are three rooms that are open right now. It’s a wonderful place. They cook breakfast lunch and dinner. And they usually have pop. Great place to rest and relax.

Larry Gill

Ascend was just the break I needed! They made me feel so comfortable and welcomed in their facility and made me whole again. I would recommend this place to anyone out there struggling with their mental health to come and get a fresh prospective!
