During the 19th and first half of the 20th century it was customary for not only the superintendent and his family to live at the hospital, but also the attendants, nurses, and other staff. The male and female nurses homes were constructed in 1906. A separate building for married employees was built in 1928. In the later half of the 20th century the female nurses home was demolished and an above ground walkway was built connecting the female violent ward and the female infirmary.
