Why Did They Leave So Much Behind in This Abandoned Nursing Home?

[@kaityjae8587]

This looks like a home that also had a wing for assisted living, maybe even a locked unit(Dementia and Alzheimer's)

What a shame that is abandoned. They can use it for the homeless.🌻😊

[@joanneneaves9651]

Your idea comes from a nice place too house homeless but in reality it's a private business. Would you open a business and then say hey Everyone come and live in here if your homeless. But if I was homeless then I would probably be happy if I found this place for some shelter.

[@shanaemerine9074]

This is a big place!! I thought the nursing home I work at is big, but this is huge. Look at the size of those resident rooms, they probably had 2 or 3 residents in each room. Big big place, stunning🥰🥰🥰 thanks guys for a good quick video🥰🥰

I used to work there about 15 yrs ago. The upstairs was the second floor of the owner’s office. He had a beautiful home across the street that matched the outside of this nursing home, but his partner killed himself there which is why the owner stayed in his office and collected things, hence the bed upstairs in the office and the excessive junk. The owner was an extreme hoarder, had some mental health problems due to his partner’s death, and eventually stopped paying his bills, and lost everything. It’s very sad. *fun fact* this nursing home is extremely haunted. We’ve physically seen ghosts in the sitting areas at nighttime. I even caught one in a photo! This is in Columbia Station, Ohio. Not sure if you’re up for it but it might be worth it to explore it at night. I’m certain you will see ghosts! And finally, yes, this place was absolutely beautiful when it was a functional nursing home. I actually miss it there. 15:53 is a photo of the owner. Can’t remember his name though

Those " reception areas" are nurses stations

[@MsBlackhawk69]

Disgraceful how much expensive equipment they left behind. At the very least the file cabinets and computers should have been removed to protect against identity theft.

[@jeanbaker2087]

This was a good one! Thanks!

[@Freaktography]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jameslipke354]

They probably left the wheelchairs, walkers, beds, etc and wrote them off as a business loss. What a shame. So many nursing homes and senior centers could have really benefited from those things being donated to them which is also a business write off. It would be a great place as temporary housing for homeless families with children. A charitable write off. So sad... Thanks for sharing Dave! ~ APRIL LIPKE

Dave, I just watched a video about You and what You did, You are an impeccable Human Being,Man, and Explorer, You could have kept that cash, but You did the Honest thing,That right there is Integrity.

[@Freaktography]

Thanks so much

[@pattigolden1]

That's what happens when you rush through....ya miss stuff. It's sad so much was left behind.

[@denisewatson5295]

What a awesome place. Looks like they could do something with this place. It's a shame that it's empty. Thanks for sharing 👍 😀

[@janetdeloach8522]

This looks like a high end Nursing home. So many rooms with another hall way til it becomes a maze...This could be bought and renovated as a hotel or a dormatory. But I fear it is haunted because so many older patients have died there.... It is functional but I would visit at night to see if it is truly haunted. Great explore...

[@suzannewojtkowiak4329]

It looks like quite a large facility and seems nicely appointed. The rooms look large and the dining/day/game room(s) are very big and bright. What a shame all that equipment was left behind when I know how expensive it can be when you are in need of it. How many entrances/reception areas were there? Seemed to be a couple. Really sad this place couldn't have been reused or reimagined. and what's with the china cabinets?? Wish you'd had a little more time to explore.

[@rachelgervais1971]

Really enjoyed this thanks.😊

[@Freaktography]

So glad!

I'm RN 15 years in the industry, I Just recently started to get my money right" raking in 20k monthly from my 2 Jobs and investments after living paycheck to paycheck for a long while. I plan on growing my passive income and retire soon enough to follow my passion. My story & hers is proof that not matter how much you make anyone can go bankrupt when they're irresponsible with their money. I didn't get education on personal finances from my parents or in school and I learnt the tough way. I wish money management is taught in schools for the younger generation. Live within your means, budget, save, and invest!

[@bashirauwal5825]

​@oliviajayden6654 I made sacrifices for the greater good. Cut down expenses, frugal living, learnt to budget, save, When done properly, investing increases wealth, piling up so much in the bank will yield only 0.1 percent! let your money work extra for you. I learnt all this with the help of a professional to guide me through the baby steps, I'm teaching my kids the same with her help.

[@bashirauwal5825]

I suggest you look up Rachel Blanc, she's fantastic and successfully guided me through the steps. With her assistance I'm increasing my portfolio's passive income

This is really educational. Thanks to your sharing this extremely useful suggestion on here, KZbin comments these days are more educational than ever before

[@joangravel2436]

Awesome video thanks

[@Freaktography]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@sheila3845]

Love the chandelier

[@bobbegin5292]

I will bet that this place was a beauty in its heyday!

[@ravendixon1099]

It's a large facility. I wonder where all the ppl were placed when it closed. You said old Betty with regard to the beauty salon. A lot of ppl that are young are in nursing homes because of some deteriorating disease

[@jouvellemcwatters169]

Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 again . Awww such a grand old place , shame it was just left behind, nice wall units in that last room . I have worked in homes out here , it’s rewarding and depressing. Most of the oldies call them “Gods waiting room”. I won’t be going into one when my time comes I can assure you . I’m still laughing at that random Pope doll 😂 Thanks for sharing 😊

[@patriciamarnach6712]

Why so much left behind/love this

[@hsylvester6132]

That space had a lot of positive vibe. The potential for it to be be reused makes me wonder why its abandoned like that. Maybe it has been and im just not aware. How many ppl could find shelter there?

[@b2617]

Surprised that equipment was left behind

[@clairefunnell8481]

Great explore Dave. Shame, it could be renovated for use again. It's in pretty decent shape. Those light fixtures are really nice. Seeing old beds is creepy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Freaktography]

My thoughts exactly

[@wach761]

Sorry, I should have said thank you. Thank you!🌻😊

[@Freaktography]

No worries!

[@connorbarnes7007]

I literally cleaned out that place 7-8 months ago. Some investors group owns it now I believe

[@ryandavis1724]

We cleaned out the place lol😂

[@jonterrett]

Decent sized building some renovation and could be used again

[@jackanderson1979]

Where I live we had a abandoned nursing home for years.now.they turn it to a apartment

[@R.Mckenzie-lt1dz]

Wow !! How wasteful,

[@Freaktography]

Very!

[@charliea3363]

Kinda creepy. So many things left behind.

[@crosswired9]

**The writing on the white board is a poem called Desiderata by Max Ehrmann. I love it, you have the right to be there... I wonder since it IS in Wrighting AND posted that HAS to be legal... Right😮

[@jessicalaubacher4240]

The state came in and shut it down. Probably years of neglect and abuse. Violations of Obra too. Sad it is . I know when the one I worked in closed A lot of our residents died .

[@Freaktography]

thats sad

[@jerroldmcley4347]

Cool 😎🆒 place that was different

[@katlover4442]

I wonder if COVID had anything to do with it closing… And the „reception areas“ are actually nursing stations…

[@HeidiTeutsch-pt5pj]

Where are they

[@jerroldmcley4347]

Was that a gun on that chair?

[@Gail-j8j]

Sad😮

[@katlover4442]

The big bed at the end of the hallway is probably a bariatric bed for grossly obese residents, although it didn’t look like a bariatric bed to me…

[@sidewaysbeard7606]

Creepy, very weird vibe.

[@coleengrantham2266]

Wow the left just about everything. All of those wheel chairs and walkers could and should be donated to people who can not afford to buy them. This looks like it was a pretty nice facility at one time. Wow there is so much stuff in this place that could be donated instead of just rotting away there.

[@joanneneaves9651]

Thanks for the video 📹 upload. I wonder if there is new planning permission on this place, maybe for a retirement high rise development like a prison come office 🏢 block design. The size of those wheelchair ♿ and beds are for very overweight people. Stay off the Sugar folks
