Top-class hospital. The facilities are beautiful and extremely clean. The nurses and OT’s are very helpful and caring. The programmes they run, together with the help of your psychiatrist and psychologist, will help you deal with whatever you are going through. Cannot rave higher of Sunnyside Pe

Sunnyside Wellness centre saved my life and became a safe haven. Without their care and love I wouldn't be alive. Everyone was so helpful and friendly and became friends for life. The coping skills you learn are great and a support group meet every second Saterday to help you cope in the real world. The food is great and they cater for special needs patients as well. The activities you do are fun....I learned how to loom knit, and the sessions with the team of psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and occupational therapists and doctors helped me to understand and manage my illness.
