Day 263 – This is the John Muir Hospital

When Cindy went to her first Physical Therapy in the gym, the therapist decided to take Cindy down the main elevator and through the lobby instead of the back elevators.  Cindy had never been there before even though she has been at the hospital for months at a time.

The hospital is really nice.  When you walk in, you go to a reception desk, almost like at a hotel, and get a badge.  The rooms are all private and spacious.  The rooms in the new tower even have a small pull out couch if someone wants to spend the night.

The lobby shown below is the first of two waiting areas. 

The hospital hires professional pianists to play the piano during the day.

The atrium gives the waiting areas a lot of light.

The second waiting room is close to the admitting office.

There are some very interesting looking fish in the fish tanks in both the lobby and the waiting room on the second floor.

There’s an outdoor area where visitors can sit.

So why hasn’t Cindy seen all this?  Because she comes into the hospital through the back door labeled Emergency.
