Now this I love, the idea that cupid has black, heavy boots on is totally different, but thats what i like best about it.

Traction

anna

I can honestly say that I have never in all my days working in the health care field have i ever come in contact with something like that. Although i doubt many cardiac patients would need this type of device.

I love this shot, it looks like someone got undressed, pushed the door aside, and stepped in. Or is it just me?

Silent Scream

Lynn, Im sure most of them where looking for human contact.......just not the kind thats usually appreciated.

Pause

Im thinking that at the time these buildings where built, they used what they thought *appropriate* at the time. It all had to start somewhere . Think about it, if you where working with patients that where deemed criminally insane, you would need some kind of protection between yourself and the clients you where taking care of. And since like Lynn said, this was the days before plexi-glass..........so its going to be mesh.............TAA DAA.....my deep thought for today........ 8-)

Cramped

anna

Some of the nursing homes I worked in didnt have bathrooms in the patients rooms either. It was extremely fun trying to carry a steaming bedpan down the hallway and not spill it on yourself. ;-~

Cramped

anna

Can you imagine having a room that was only as wide as the bed.........I cant.......or is this just a clever illusion Motts?

Silent Scream

anna

Not only are the caged rooms offsetting, but the green makes everything look so dark and morbid.

Pause

anna

reminds me of a zoo with all the caged doors.
