I worked there i969 and early 1970. My mother did private duty nursing there before and after me. they had rooms on the top floor that employees could rent and I had the largest with two beds so Mother could stay over in bad weather. Although I was an activity aide I also assisted with ECT-that is something hard to watch at 18. I would do private duty nursing with alcoholics-mental breakdowns -kids who sniffed glue to those known as senile. I left there to enlist in the Marines after my position was cut.A few years ago I DROVE UP and went in when they were changing to housing-that was on my bucket list i guess since it held a lot of memories
