So, wait, is that the first padded room you've actually come across? If so, any idea as to whether thats thanks to patterns of decay (pads = more rottable?) or just because they're not nearly as common as the popular asylum stereotype would have us believe?

perhaps if your facility is owned by a big company, ie., hca, an alert could be put out for one. maybe there's a facility being remodeled, sold, whatever. you could also check w/a local association for people w/disabilities. maybe they would know of one no longer in use.
how about craigslist? eBay? hit up the softest touch on the board of directors...
