April 2011
We have a trend occurring here; another missing patient.
Here is the RCMP initial report, and the latest with a picture
There has been more than normal disappearances at Riverview the past few months, and the staff are being especially quiet about the potential reasons behind them.
The Hillside unit was shut down a few weeks ago now. It has been totally cleaned out; it hopefully awaits a new use, since it is in good shape. Finished in 1966, it was designed for patients who were being integrated back into the community.
Learn about Riverview Hospital heritage at May 1 walk. I will be one of the leaders in this walk.
