Wow--this shot reminds me of Grammar school; the open doors is where we would come in from recess, and walk down the ramp to the cafeteria ;o)

For about 2 years, I was an outpatient @ a Behavorial Health clinic @ a county hospital/medical center.( I also had a close friend who worked as a CNA @ the same hospital for a year) They serve clients psychatric, developmental and physical disabilities. One of the long term patients i used to see on my weekly appointments used a similar sort of wheelchair/walker combo, only in pink( I THINK he might have had either Downs syndrome or CP)

Apparently, the link isn't valid anymore..

I look at that chair, and then think about how I'm sitting in my uncomfortable second-hand chair, slumped forward and tilted in funny directions. I think sitting in THAT chair would probably hurt for all the right reasons! :P

I believe the plexi-glass seating would have maybe been used for patients with bowels problems it looks like easy clean up.

Fascinating...never heard of such a thing!

Really appreciate all the information about things I've never seen or heard of until now. This site not only visually documents this history, but educates at the same time. That's a winning combination.

Looks like it's trying to kneel down.......

The moss matches the color on the wall. Wild shot!

Hope there's no PHI (Private Health Information) in there, but there probably is. Someone's meical hisotry, probably even SSN's... a State Run facility's info should be better kept!

thanks for the link

i have cp and can not afford a stander and it makes my sick to see all this just sitting there.You got people that really could use it.

I have a lei exactly the color of the one lying to the right of the machine(red) on the fish netting that graces the wall behind my fish tank.
Makes about as much sense, too.

You know..............you really have to go............



HEY ! They stole my idea ! Well, not quite ; all it needs is a motor and racing slicks.

Looks almost as bad as my place before I cleaned it up last autumn.

A commercial D260 scanner would gobble that up.
Wouldn't be much point, though.
