Hey everybody, thanks so much for taking the time to read my post..

I just recently started working at a care home and noticed a number of ivy-ridden rose bushes. After removing 2 garbage cans full of ivy I uncovered these beauties!

Unfortunately, I know very little about gardening and even less about pruning rose bushes.

If anybody could be so kind as to perhaps show me where these should be cut to maximize rose production, I would be forever grateful!

It appears they've been pruned several times, but I'm not sure if it was done correctly. I have the tools to remove small/large portions so if you have a moment, please make me a cut map or something of the sort? Thanks!
