I see sometimes the frustration of the staff on the unit who has to wait to meet with clients until space becomes available to do so. I have sat in on treatment team meetings where the room was smaller than a client’s room but had to fit the…

The infirmary building for women was only one story high. Passageways between the buildings on each floor were necessary. A sunroom on each floor was also being provided. Cement walks from the highway up until the entrance of the hospital have been laid making accessibility easier for patients. (Hurd, Drewry, Dewey, Pilgram, & Blumer,…
