Dear Former Resident: Please share more if you could. I've only been to one "abandoned" hospital and it was an organized tour but oh, so fascinating! (it was Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville) I love medical history and those who tell the history I find equally interesting.

I found the Ferry yesterday. I was in a boat. I got real close and got some pics. There was a yatch next to it that is suppose to be the Shah of Iran's boat.

The Sprint

Kelly

Hello, This comment isn't about the Pines, it's about another resort called Beverly Farms. It was in Freehold (Greenville) NY. I can't seem to find anything on it-it's like the place never existed. I would be so happy to hear if anyone remembers it, workerd there, ANYTHING! The last time I was there was 1989. It would mean the world to me if anyone would respond. Thank you!

Large Tub

We call them Hubbard tanks. Hell to fill,hell to clean, and hell to get the patients in and out of them. Especially if they are morbidly obese. I'm glad we don't use them much anymore. I haven't seen one in over a decade.

Straps

kelly

In physical therapy we call it a tilt table. The patient is supine and strapped in. We turn a crank (or its electric) and the table begins to "tilt" upward towards a standing position. It is a good way for those with low blood pressure and other problems to gradually get used to being upright rather than stand them up all at once. I used one the other day with an amputee with low blood pressure. He only got to about 65 degrees. The straps are merely for the patients comfort so that he/she doesn't slide sown or wieght bear too much all at once when we are cranking them to a stand.

Hydrotherapy Tub

kelly

As a physical therapist, I used this type of tank in the early part of my career for large people with multiple wounds. The whole process of filling the (Hubbard) tank, putting the patient in it, whirlpooling for 20 min, taking them out, dressing the wounds, and transporting the patient back to their room and transferring them back to bed (whew!) took around two hours with only about half of that time as billable time. Some of these patients were twice a day! Egads! I've not used this type of tank in at least ten years. Not efficient enough for the ins companies.
Love this website, by the way!
