the wheel on the right is a completely different wheel all together.

I have never hear of a bedside commode doubling as a wheel chair, I worked in a nursing home, and for safety, non of them had wheels.

cool picture!!!!

this is a breath taking picture to me, I love how a empty building can speak volumes by the look and ware of it!

Iduno, but anyone can see that the shirt is not that old> :-)

nah, look at how bright that shirt is, no way that is from when it opened.

DO YOU REAL THINK THOSE SHIRTS WERE FROM THE DAYS WHEN PENNHURST WAS OPEN???????

i real don,t think that those toys were there when the place was open . I REAL THINK SOME ONE PUT THEM THERE T

I have been in this room and the group i was with found a "chest" of documents

in the documents there was a three ring binder about 5 inches think.

it was completly filled with files of patients and how they died, why they died, when where and the regular stuff...

the odd part of it was that most patients had died from "restraints" or "patient got out of hand, doctors(or nurses) handled"

the worst part was in the back of the binder there was a tally sheet of the operations for 3 doctors..

under each docotrs naem there was a spot for deaths on the table, death form complications, and survivals..

a good 75% died on the table while a few others died form complications..... very few survived the operations

Leaves... the door up top was probably open.
