About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to RHN Outreach Services, he swore he heard faint laughter coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw nothing but empty rooms lit only by dim fluorescent lights. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood reported smelling fresh-baked cookies wafting from the same direction. As it turned out, every Wednesday evening, an anonymous volunteer baked batches of chocolate chip cookies and left them outside the clinic’s door for anyone who might be hungry or lonely. The next day, the delicious scent would fill the air, bringing smiles to everyone's faces.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to RHN Outreach Services, he heard an urgent announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all visitors—your kindness is needed most urgently in Room 13.’ Curious, the driver found Room 13 and saw an old man frantically waving from behind a curtain. ‘Sir,’ asked the driver, ‘what’s going on?’ The man whispered, ‘I’ve lost my remote for the TV.’ The driver laughed and said, ‘Next time, maybe just ask your neighbor!’

3. Early in the morning, when most clinics were quiet, an old man shuffled into RHN Outreach Services. He asked for help with something unusual—an overdue library book. The receptionist smiled and said, ‘We don’t lend books here, sir.’ The old man nodded wisely and replied, ‘Ah, but I heard you do miracles.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the delivery driver who’d just arrived with a box of vaccines.

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to RHN Outreach Services, he noticed something peculiar coming from inside—a soft humming sound that seemed almost like singing. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an elderly volunteer gently rocking back and forth while softly crooning to himself. Turns out it was just his way of keeping patients calm during late-night visits. The delivery driver left with a smile, thinking maybe RHN stood for ‘Rockin’ Night Nurse’ after all.
