Dennis,
I meant Roller Skating in town, not the gym.

John
You needed on grounds privilages to hike out back, but everyone could go rollerskating. My last time here I got one of our old skates. I'm gonna keep it. Its really old lolt

you guys crack me up

Holy Cow! Excellent, Motts! Thank you for risking life and limb for us disabled folk who can live vicariously through your walks. You don't know how much it means to me (us).
Does anyone agree with me that this staircase is iron? Maybe one piece? If so, again I say, Holy - Cow!

ooooo, motts! I want heaven to be lit just - like - this!!

Just how did/does JMack know that no one came to visit? Is that the infamous talking old wheel chair? There is plenty of pathos in real life to go around without resortng to imagination.

oh, motts, just lovely. thank you.
Is the tree pointing the way out?

Look closely at the backrest of the chair. See the old mustached and bearded man with a russian-type hat??? Yes, sir, Mott! Another great spooky photo!!

I think this picture was put there to show them they where still free even though they where locked up and treated like crap I think this building should be left as is cause even if u cant see them doesnt mean no one lives there still and doing anything to this building would be rude and an insalt to thoes spirets still there

Sometimes wheelchairs or other assistive devices are not passed on to another person is because technology has come so far that these chairs are obsolete. New ones are lighter, easier to fold for transport, and are much more comfortable.

More likely is that Medicaid paid for this chair for a particular person, and it cannot legally be transferred to anyone else, even if the person no longer needs. Nor can anyone "profit" for the sale of something that was purchased by Medicaid funds, so that prohibits even selling them at state surplus property auctions.

A mask like this can be used only after other methods of modifying the unwanted behavior have been tried and failed. Its use would have to be ordered by a physicain andt then approved by the organization's human rights committee. The rationale for its use would have to be for reasons of safety and health of both the person wearing it and the staff, NOT to control behavior. Safety does not mean just safety from injury to self or others by uncontrolled aggression, it also refers to infection control (blood-borne pathogens). A program of positive behavior support would have to be in place, with the goal of eliminating the mask altogether. Typically the mask would be approved for use only for 15 or fewer minutes at a time. If the person were still agitated and violent after 15 minutes, the physician wod have to be contacted and sign off on another 15 minutes of use.

At least, those how it's supposed to work where I live and work. Real-life scenarios are often somewhat different, especially if there are not enough staff.

Looks like you could use the shower head for crowd control

It really does look like it's waiting for someone

great photo
