NOTES:
*They only accept cash.
*When you visit, you are given an ID badge of a patient, staff member, or visitor from the history of the hospital. You look for color coded things in the museum to find stories & artifacts connected to that person. This is a way to get a feel for the experience from someone’s point of view that experienced the hospital. I think this is an interesting approach!
*Among the exhibits about the history, life in the hospital, treatments through the years, etc., they also have an exhibit dedicate to the movie, “One Who Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”. Part of the movie was filmed here.
