There were only 2 of them and a big hoist on the ceiling between them.

The hoist was probably for "larger" patients that were bound to wheel chairs, to get them in and out. Posted by loupiote 1/14/2005 1:12 AM | remove   Yes, I'm also very curious about what exactly those tubs are for. There is an identical one in the abandoned PHSH Hospital in the Presidio of San Francisco: http://www.loupiote.com/phsh/pages/2752-phsh-tub.html http://www.loupiote.com/phsh/pages/2754-phsh-tub.html Posted by coolied 8/17/2008 2:26 AM | remove   I think it's just a hydrotherapy tub; and UEJoe21 is correct, the hoist is for "larger" patients that are too immobile to get in and out themselves, which would be expected since hydrotherapy can be used to treat extremely painful conditions such as rheumatism.
