That is a row of clubs that the nurses used to discipline the inmates.

I would imagine it was part of the decor that would be considered "safe" for residents.

Motts U never reply to my comments but do you think that there was originally glass windows covering the desk, like at psych wards?

No I don't think there was any glass at the desk, I can't imagine a good reason for it at this facility.

To reply - there were no glassed in areas. The nursing stations were work places for the nursing staff to organize themselves for their days. Also served as an information sharing place for all.

I think it's knee punisher to get you to stand at front of the station, kind of like a barbed-wire fence, crowd control if you will.

If the counters were a little wider, it would be more like a bar
