He further stated that he does not like his privacy curtain pulled closed at all times because he likes to watch his TV and likes to be able to look outside. Interview with the Director of Housekeeping on December 26, 2024, at 8:53 a.m. revealed that blinds have been ordered for Resident 2's and Resident 6's windows, but they have not arrived yet.
