Geriatric Units - Photo Gallery
Most of the Geriatric unit bedrooms are single, however we have two double rooms per unit. Bathrooms are shared and are located in the hallways of each wing. Storage space is available in each bedroom for clothing and additional space for personal care items is available in the nursing station. Patients will have access to a large supervised general activity area that includes a television and activity tables. A family meeting is also available as well as a solarium or balcony and sensory spaces.
