Employees at Retreat Behavioral Health have been left without answers after a number of facilities closed down after the sudden suicide of two top executives, according to the Daily Mail.The rehabilitation company has locations in Connecticut, Florida, and Philadelphia, but they suddenly closed down their facility in Palm Beach, Florida, last week. Employees were reportedly told that about 100 mental health and substance use patients were told to pack up and leave the facility. Thirty of the 100 patients were said to have nowhere to go.'Here's the facts, the company ran out of cash. Revenue dropped drastically and they didn’t adjust costs.'The Connecticut and Pennsylvania locations were also abruptly shut down after the deaths of CEO Peter Schorr and CAO Scott Korogodsky, according to the report. Korogodsky took the helm as the leader of the company after Schorr committed suicide inside his home in Delray Beach, according to a second report. Just days after Schorr died, it was confirmed that Korogodsky had also killed himself, according to the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's Office.Lissa Franklin—the Vice President of Southeast Florida Recovery Advocates—said, "I'm sure there’s more to the story, but from the employees that I spoke with most everybody that was there did find safe and supportive discharge options.""It’s very sad what happened to the Retreat. From my experience. It was a great program," she continued."They always helped everyone in the community. They treated everybody with compassion and kindness."Franklin went on to say that the facility was one of the only ones in the area that accepted Medicaid or VA health insurance policies, according to the Daily Mail. Internal emails revealed that Korogodsky assured staff members that they would receive payment after there was a delay in receiving paychecks.Alexander Hoinsky, the chief financial officer for the facility, said on Thursday that the company had been experiencing financial hardship for around a year. He noted that he started to become alarmed when executives at the company stopped taking his calls, according to reports."I left messages and emails [and] laid out what was going to go forward. Basically, they did not want to hear it," Hoinsky said."Here's the facts, the company ran out of cash. Revenue dropped drastically and they didn’t adjust costs," he added.While employees have still not received their payment, Hoinsky insisted that he was not in control of the money when these issues first came up, and he is still not in control of the money.Like Blaze News?

Pennsylvania has become the first state to spearhead a program for students to have their smartphones locked away during the school day, according to the Daily Mail. Republican Senator Ryan Aument, of the Pennsylvania State Senate, sponsored the bill. Aument said that smartphones present a big distraction for students when it comes to learning in school, adding that smartphones also play a role in students' mental health. Consequently, the Pennsylvania Senate Education Committee has agreed to pilot a grant program that will provide certain schools throughout the state with lockable bags that will hold students' smartphones until the end of the school day. 'I can't think of another issue I worked on in the 14 years I've been here that's resonated quite like this has.'The grant program would also give education employees locks to store smartphones in as well, per the report. Additionally, the proposed legislation would implement a performance review of the smartphone storage plan, monitoring and tracking academic achievement and students' mental health over two years to see how effective the program is."I can't think of another issue I worked on in the 14 years I've been here that's resonated quite like this has," Aument said earlier this week."I just think it's critically important that we free our kids from these devices for six and a half hours during the school day and the response we've gotten from parents and the response we've gotten from educators has been overwhelmingly positive," he continued."There's been compelling data and research that's been done that points to the decline in student mental health and student academic performance, student physical health and a direct correlation and strong evidence of direct causation with the rise of smartphone access among adolescents and social media access to adolescents."The name of the proposed bill is the Cell Phone Lockable Bag Pilot Program. And the schools that are to take part in this program would have a policy that bars the use of smartphones during school time. However, there are exceptions, such as students who have a documented medical condition that requires the use of a phone, such as diabetes.The Pew Research Center found that the average American teenager spent about three and a half hours per day on social media in 2023. Justin Neideigh, a high school teacher, said he has found positive outcomes with students who have smartphone usage limited throughout the school day."Bullying, cyber bullying, sexting, all these TikTok trends, all of this stuff that was never in the classroom before, is now," Neideigh added.Like Blaze News?
