So the facility was relatively new when Lummie was there! And if this was a new concept in patient care, I can see why the business invested in brochures to promote the new idea.<br /><br />However, in retrospect, I can also understand why a satellite view would show a vacant lot at this point. What was new in 1961 would be quite outmoded by this point, when it comes to the multiple levels of care between acute care of the hospital and home health care.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-20801695847932995962014-01-11T20:12:15.421-08:002014-01-11T20:12:15.421-08:00Colleen, it is so funny to look at the photographs...Colleen, it is so funny to look at the photographs from the facility's brochure--they look so dated, now--and realize that was "brand new" and, apparently, cutting edge when Lummie was there.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-42428114924156243232014-01-11T20:10:38.757-08:002014-01-11T20:10:38.757-08:00I never met Lummie myself, of course, but if she w...I never met Lummie myself, of course, but if she was anything like my aunt, she was accustomed to being on her feet and active all the time.
