LR had a sponsored interview with Eightwest. Michelle Dubey, Vice President of Clinical Quality, sat down for the interview. She biffed her first answer. She talked about the stress of family and travel and how it’s easy to self-medicate. There was no mention of people being lonely or struggling with the holidays. It shows how out of touch Michelle is with why people use in the first place.
Michelle stated that Landmark doesn’t like people traveling for over two hours for treatment. Landmark consistently flew people from Oklahoma City to Las Vegas. A nonstop flight is two hours. A patient would need a ride to the airport, go through security, fly to Las Vegas, and get picked up to get to a facility. Remember TPES, driving around for hours, picking up multiple patients.
Michelle mentioned taking great care of the person seeking treatment. Multiple patients in Indiana are suing Landmark due to the horrible treatment they claimed to have received. Michelle also stated that Landmark has the highest quality in the industry at affordable prices. There is mold in the Willard facility, and water backed up there and in the Mishawaka facility. Where is this highest quality of care?
Landmark is fine paying for self-promotion, yet stiffens vendors and lays off employees left and right. This sponsored segment got me all amped up. This is a slap in the face to everyone that knows the truth. Eigthwest should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this nonsense. The kicker was that the facility they showed wasn’t even Battle Creek.
Hours before Angela Chapman’s car accident, she was a patient at LR of Louisville. Angela had an incident while at Landmark. She verbalized having homicidal intent. Landmark failed to transfer Angela to a higher-level care facility. I was informed that Angela was prescribed narcotics, given the keys to the car, and discharged.
Sadly, two hours after Angela was discharged from Landmark, she crossed over into oncoming traffic and collided with a car. The two children, a one and two-year-old, were killed in the crash. The driver, who was pregnant at the time, was transported to the hospital. The accident took place on Sunday, November 13th, 2022.
This accident should never have happened. Had Landmark referred Angela to another facility, these kids would still be alive. This is a failure on Landmark’s end. Time will tell if they will be held accountable.
Several employees have been complaining that Landmark has been deducting funds for Mutual of Omaha yet not paying them. If this has happened to you, contact the U.S. Department of Labor – Benefits Security and file a claim, as well as your local state Department of Commerce and Insurance.
All complaints regarding L.M. not providing benefits that have been deducted from employee paychecks should be made to: U.S. Department of Labor – Employee Benefits Security Administration (866) 444-4372 You will have to provide the following information: Employee contribution for each benefit per pay period. Date span for contribution (first deduction – last) Benefits department contact: Megan Powell Megan.powell@landmarkrecovery.com A direct phone number for Megan (if you have one.) There isn’t a number listed for her or on any of her emails. The U.S. D.O.L. rep will attempt to call L.M. with you on the phone, with your permission.
There may also be a legal issue over the Las Vegas layoffs. Landmark may need to provide employees with 60 days’ notice before closing Las Vegas. This must be investigated, and any affected employee should look into the Warn Act. You should contact the Department of Labor to inquire further.
The news was able to obtain the cause of death for the three patients who died at Mishawaka. There was no massive shock with the patient who committed suicide. The questions remain on the bed checks. One of my sources advised me that the PES on duty didn’t know that the patient was on suicide watch. The first death was ruled due to the toxic effects of a combination of medications of Buprenorphine and Gabapentin. Buprenorphine is FDA-approved for acute pain, chronic pain, and opioid dependence. Gabapentin is in a class of drugs called anticonvulsants. Gabapentin treats seizures by decreasing abnormal excitement in the brain. Landmark prescribed these medications. The third death was ruled to be caused by chronic alcohol use disorder. Mishawaka was severely understaffed. We also don’t know how long the patients were at Landmark.
Matty Boil did state that Landmark was going to pursue getting its licenses reinstated. This seems futile as they still won’t have Medicaid and Blue Cross/ Blue Shield contracts. These facilities were already placed on a corrective plan in March. Landmark failed to make the necessary corrections, and conditions got worse. I’d like to know if Landmark has continued to pay rent for the three facilities. They can’t pay rent where they have patients; why would they pay rent for closed facilities?
Matty just sent out an email celebrating the coroner’s findings. He encouraged employees to share the links on social media. He also cautioned them not to be negative about the Sheriff’s Department and the State. Matt must have forgotten he was the first to bash the Sherrif and the State with his We Are War company-wide email. I haven’t. Excellent job sending out another tone-deaf email while being laid off left and right.
It figures that Misty Hogan would share the news on LinkedIn while kissing Justin Hartman’s butt. Her post is more tone-deaf than Matty’s. She is happy that people are dead and that Landmark didn’t kill them. Let’s see how this plays out with the CCTV postage and the patient charts. If Landmark thinks they are coming out unscathed, they have another coming.
Update October 26. Misty Hogan deleted her LinkedIn profile yesterday.
Update October 30. MIsty Hogan reactivated her LinkedIn Profile, but the above post was removed.
I first broke the news on Saturday that LR would close down Las Vegas. I have now learned they were served with a 60-day eviction notice. Landmark told people yesterday and blamed it on Admissions. Landmark is full of lies, and so is Matty Boyle. This news contradicts his birthday email, discussing how things would improve. Matty has lied about the layoffs in March, too. One email said it was a house cleaning when it was for financial reasons. I was one of those who were laid off on Black Friday, March 3rd, 2023. I wouldn’t trust anything he says.
Why did I need to break the Las Vegas and Oklahoma City news? I have been questioned a few times about what I know and report. I know I have a giant bullseye on my back, and some people are waiting for me to be knocked off my pedalstool. I have integrity and character. I vet my information and know who is lying and feeding me misinformation. Landmark has yet to sue or serve me with a cease and desist. Landmark lacks integrity. Landmark is still hiring in OKC. They were hiring an Executive Director in Las Vegas, even knowing they were being evicted. How many more facilities will be closing becuase Landmark failed to pay rent?
Landmark just opened a 192-patient facility in Ohio. This facility will be closed come January 2024 with the law stating if a facility loses its license in one state, it loses it in Ohio. Landmark keeps focusing on expansion instead of fixing the issues. Landmark buys a property, increases its value, and then sells it. This is not sustainable. Landmark isn’t giving employees severance in Las Vegas. The wheels are falling off.
Here’s the thing: I have gotten under Matty’s skin and am living rent-free in his head. He hates me, my website, and The Collective. We all live rent-free in his head, and he can’t evict us. So, Matty, you come for the king you better not miss because I’m your huckleberry. You cracked me up yesterday. I am still laughing about it. You don’t live rent-free in my head. Chess, not checkers.
Just the other, Matty Boyle was talking about how well the company is doing and that things are about to improve. Well, guess again: LR of Oklahoma City has 30 days to vacate the premises as they are being evicted. The landlord has had issues with collecting rent. In true Landmark fashion, only a few people know. The rest of the staff at OKC will be told next Friday. They will have three weeks to find a new job. The employees that do know can remain employed if they move to Morrilton, Arkansas. Do admissions know?
This is going to hurt Landmark. They will lose the Tribal contract. The Tribal contract was a huge money maker for Landmark. They would fly patients to Las Vegas and Denver as they could get cheap direct flights. Landmark will need to continue expanding or cutting its losses. Rumor has it that Landmark may shut down Las Vegas. I am shocked that Battle Creek is still open, as that facility was never profitable.
Yesterday was Matthew Boyle’s birthday, and he had a present for all of us. Matty sent out the following email. I published in as is, with the typos and grammatical errors.
From yesterday’s birthday boy, Matty Boil: Team
I understand we have all been through the ringer in the past few months. Many of us are weary, scared, and tired. I know personally I’ve slept in my own bed two nights since Labor Day. We have been through a lot, and we continue to face a lot.
In light of this, I wanted to share some good news. We have received toxicology and autopsy results from the deaths in Mishawaka. We can confirm officially there were in fact no overdoses. We know there was one suicide. The other deaths resulted from natural processes related to the patients’ disease. Some of you may be aware today is my birthday. After what we have gone through in the past few months, it was a great birthday present to receive this piece of validation. Whatever problems we may have had last year, this information validates what I have always maintained. We began cleaning house in March. We made positive changes as a company. We made tremendous progress in a short period of time. I am proud of what we have achieved. The events of July were tragic, but they were not a result of a failure of the company to provide quality healthcare. That is beyond a shadow of a doubt now.
Starting tomorrow, a new chapter will begin. We will work to restore our licenses and reopen the facilities that were closed. Of course, there is no guarantee this will work, but given the information we have now received, I am quite optimistic. I am proud that we have once again opened a new facility, in Westerville, OH. We received a new license today in Morrilton, Arkansas. It is always darkest before the dawn. Do not get distracted by the folks on facebook or the websites about us or the media. They have been wrong all along. We know what we stand for. We know the truth. And, despite all the odds, when it seems impossible, the truth has a funny way of sticking around. We will get through this, stronger than ever. We always have and always will.
There are many things to unpack here. Matty told the news reporters he would sit down for an interview. He proceeds to ghost them. With this good news, will he finally do it? If I were him, I would ensure the media knew these findings. Matt will be asked tough questions like staffing ratios, bed checks, and why the court forced them to turn over the CCTV videos.
Matty is going to focus on getting their licenses reinstated. Landmark was on a corrective plan earlier this year. Landmark not only failed to make the necessary changes, things got worse. Please remember that several former patients are suing Landmark over how they were treated while under Landmark’s care. Three people died under Landmark’s care at Mishawaka. Matty blames the patients for their deaths and accepts zero responsibility.
Do you know that Landmark has distanced themselves from the Mishawaka facility? They removed the location from the website, and the old URL redirects to the locations page. The website listed on the Google Business Profile (GBP) links to the Medicaid Facilitry website.
Matty refers to Black Friday, March 3rd’s layoffs as cleaning house. My team was gutted that day. We were told that we were being let go due to financial issues. Now we were laid off for house cleaning? Two people found new roles at the company. Make this make sense??? Matty hasn’t made anything better; he destroyed a wonderful and happy work environment. People have been unhappy since that day, and it’s only gotten worse. Employees hope that each day is their last day.
Matty then goes on to state that a new facility in Ohio. If Landmark fails to get its license reinstated in Indiana, it will be shut down in January. Again, the Boyles like to focus on expansion instead of fixing the issues at the facilities. Are you aware that Landmark needs the proper insurance level to perform telehealth? Landmark is trying to work around being unable to bill Medicaid in Indiana by using MD Wise.
Thank you, Matty, for acknowledging this website and the folks on Facebook. FYI, it’s one website and two Facebook groups. Do you think people are that stupid to believe you and ignore us and the media? People aren’t drinking the Kool-Aid. You said one thing that I agree with. The truth will stick around. Your false claims and criminal activities will be exposed to the world. I have several surprises in store for you. One final note: some of your employees mock your emails.
Is Misty Hogan misguided, or did she overdose on the LR Kool-Aid? Misty Hogan is a Clinical Liaison at Landmark. She is also a Clinical Liason. Yes, she managed to misspell her job title and never removed it. Misty has the time of her life promoting LR at various events. Misty loves to post about them on LinkedIn, where she tags Gemma Gutierrez and Justin Hartman. She tagged Lisa Slate once.
Misty is on the board of directors for Recover Out Loud. This is morally unethical. ROL is active in the community and wants to help everyone in recovery. She had a LR booth at an event put on by Recover Out Loud. Misty sees no issues with this. Why would she, Landmark, line her pockets with a paycheck? The image below shows a banner ROL created as Misty stands behind a LR table.
BDMs get bonuses on the amount of money that Landmark makes. Misty is triple dipping here. She is at an ROL event promoting LR to get patients into a facility and collecting a bonus. This is unethical and morally irresponsible. Misty sponsors events that contradict Matt Boyle’s beliefs. Matt doesn’t support the LGBTQ+ community. Misty believes that Landmark empowers women. I know too many women who will dispute that statement. The only women that Landmark cares about are skinny, pretty, or screwable. Landmark has been laying off more women and replacing them with men in the last few months. A few departments consist of men only.
Landmark is desperate to fill beds. Misty’s efforts won’t work after Landmark lost Blue Cross/ Blue Shield and Medicaid in Indiana. The census is low; Misty’s only hope is that she still has a job after Landmark continues to lay off and not pay staff. If it comes to her and a man, she will let go.
Brandy Luppino is trying to perform damage control for LR. Brandy is the Business Office Manager at Medicaid Facilitry of the Firelands by LR. According to Brandy, this location has had zero issues. Well, that’s not entirely true. She did report that an employee was let go or quit after having an affair with a patient. According to Brandy, this is the only blemish for this facility. I know that this is a bald-faced lie. The sewer backed up and was left to dry as nobody bothered to clean it. There is mold in the facility.
Brandy is a member of The Talk about Willard Ohio Facebook group. A member posted a news story about Samantha Thompson’s death at the Willard, OH, facility. Brandy posted the following comment in the group, “I mean, I guess If we believe the media never has an agenda and that they can be trusted to tell the full truth, then sure, let’s shut down a place that’s helped hundreds of people.” LR and some current employees have an agenda. How can multiple media outlets have the same agenda to smear LR? How do they all find ex-employees and patients to come forward with similar stories? Please see her comment and my reply.
I am waiting to see if Brandy replies to me. Brandy did reply to another member on Thursday, October 5th. Poor Brandy didn’t know who she was mouthing off to. That member was a dispatcher for the Willard Police Department and the Huron County Sheriff’s Office. This would be a person if anybody would know the issues at the Willard location. Brandy is playing checkers while others are playing chess.
I would like to know if LR knows that Brandy was sharing this website with employees at Willard. I want to thank you, Brandy. Your sharing of this website allowed me to receive information from sources connected to your facility. What did you hope to gain from this? It backfired on you. I know that you are playing both sides and can’t be trusted. I see through you. The gig is up. Now you get to deal with this post and me ranking for your name. I won!!!
I am sorry that I haven’t published a new post in weeks. A lot is happening behind the scenes. I appreciate everyone who reached out via email, chat, and text. There is a mole in the Collective group. We don’t know if it was intentional or if somebody was trying to harass LR. I do have a suspect in mind. This person has played both sides a few times.
Here is what I know and can share. The remaining employees at home office are all on the fifth floor now. Some folks at the Home Office were paid late on Friday, while others, I am told, are still waiting. Landmark is still laying people off at home office, and the mood is the worst that it has ever been. Some people dread going into the office. Landmark has cut the contributions of medical benefits, forcing employees to pay more out of pocket. Mutual of Omaha dropped Landmark. Landmark was deducting money from paychecks for insurance and now needs to pay employees back. It sounds like Landmark needs to rob Peter to pay Paul.
I have heard more information regarding Samantha Thompson’s death. The autopsy should be coming out in November. Alvin Luster is the current Executive Director at Willard. Not a lot of people have anything nice to say about him. There are over two hours of transcripts of the emergency calls for Willard. There have been many staff members who had sexual relations with patients. Some were trading cigarettes and vapes in exchange for sexual favors. It seems Willard was one of the only facilities where staff were terminated for this. The Willard facility is 1000 feet from a preschool due to Landmark not performing proper assessments on patients at Home Office. Willard unknowingly admitted registered sex offenders. These patients would be there for days before it was discovered. Once it was known, these patients had to be transferred to Euclid. Can you imagine working or being a patient at a facility and not knowing that a registered sex offender was a patient? It does feel that Landmark does not regard its staff and fellow patients. There was a confirmed rape at Euclid back in May.
I have heard about multiple affairs inside facilities and at the Home Office. Several people have told me that Matty “Boil” Boyle’s wife, Maura, is a racist and won’t allow minorities in their home. I heard that Landmark wanted to fire anybody that was overweight. Clifford and Matty like to surround themselves with Pretty Young Things. MAGA hats are allowed in the office, yet rainbow flags are deemed too political.
The census is the worst that it has ever been. The word has gotten out. Sadly, Landmark is still trying to open more facilities. They can’t fill the facilities in Louisville, yet they are trying to open another facility there. This is how poor management is. Landmark is getting killed on Glassdoor. I love the comments from current and former clients. I refresh it daily and am usually the first to mark it as helpful. The truth keeps coming out daily. The amount of hate for Matty Boil is through the roof. I have heard from many nonviolent people who want to kick the snot out of him. I feel the same about him and Justin Hartman. Hartman destroyed admissions and wished to prevent proper patient screenings. It was all about Filling The Fucking Beds and damn the consequences. Once the beds were filled, Landmark would charge patients for medications and services they never received. This is insurance fraud.
Landmark will lose its license on January 1st, 2024. A new law will be passed that once a facility loses its license in one state, it loses it in every state. I heard one state is chopping at the bit to yank Landmark’s license on January 1st. Landmark has transitioned from being the Titanic to the Hindenburg phase. They are going to implode. This won’t be the end of Landmark; they still have the civil lawsuits, criminal cases, the Department of Justice, and The DEA to deal with. Landmark is beyond screwed.
I started this project to shine a light on the darkness of greed. This has become a group project. I may be one of the vocal people, but I appreciate everyone who has come forward with your stories and information. You are the true heroes. You were in the thick of it. I was so far removed. You got into this industry to help people. I am glad that I can share your stories and your pain. I have met countless wonderful people. Some of you I have become friends with along the way. This project has hurt me along the way. Some of your stories were painful and took their toll on me. I was also going through some personal things at the time, and I was hiding myself in a bottle. I had two people I met during this process that set me straight. I am a passionate person, and I feel your pain. We are all in this together, with the end goal to end Landmark and help a community of people who need help.
