About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Beverly Health one morning, puzzled by an odd item in his truck. Among boxes of supplies lay a small, dusty violin case. Curious, he carried it inside, only to discover that every time he played its lone note, residents would start humming along. Finally, someone noticed an old lady waving from her window across the street. She whispered, ‘That’s my fiddle! I left it here years ago.’ The delivery driver laughed, thinking, ‘At least now I know why everyone was smiling so much!’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Beverly Health one morning, confused by the sight of a small bird perched on the wheel of his truck. The driver looked around puzzled, then shrugged and drove off. Later that day, a neighbor noticed the same bird sitting outside Beverly Health’s entrance. When asked where it came from, she replied, ‘Must’ve flown in through the revolving door.’

3. A delivery driver pulled up to Beverly Health one morning, perplexed by a sign on the door that read ‘Closed for Annual Happiness Retreat.’ The driver knocked gently, thinking maybe someone was inside enjoying their retreat. Suddenly, an elderly gentleman appeared, wearing nothing but a big smile and a hospital gown, waving him in with a twinkle in his eye. ‘Welcome!’ he chirped. The driver blinked, then realized—oh, it must be their annual ‘Happy Naked Day’ instead of a retreat.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to Beverly Health one morning, baffled by a note taped to the door: ‘Please deliver all packages through the skylight.’ The delivery guy shrugged and said, 'Guess they don’t want any more germs than necessary.' He carefully placed each package on the windowsill before climbing up to the skylight. A few minutes later, an elderly voice called down, 'Sonny, could you bring that coffee creamer to room 319?' The driver smiled and replied, 'Will do, ma’am!' And thus began his new daily routine.
