There are 300 patients in the Ex- tended Care hospital. Although most of them will likely be here on campus for some time, the hospital staff tries to encourage them not to lose track of their former neighborhood. “We try to keep the patients in- volved in the community,”says Kathy Scalzo, director of rehabilitation at the hospital. “We try toencourage themto go totheir neighborhood church, or their Kiwanis club meeting or Legion.” But without reliable transportationthat’s empty en- couragement, she explains. Up to this time the Extended Care Unit has made use of the Easter Seal buses “like every other organization in town,” Ms. Scalzo says.
