This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to 1972, visitors to Connecticut state mental hospitals might have noticed a six-year-old chronically depressed girl crouching in the corner of a chaotic cafeteria, or a seven-year-old autistic boy sleeping on a cot next to a seventy-year-old schizophrenic man. Riverview Hospital for Children and Youth tells the story of one of the first milieu based therapeutic hospitals specializing in children’s care, located in Middletown, Connecticut. Richard J. Wiseman, its first superintendent, offers his own story and treatment philosophy alongside the voices of the many people who worked tirelessly to free children from an adult mental health facility, and to treat children as children. This important book provides access to decades of experiences, useful tools, and knowledge regarding the treatment of children requiring mental health care. Weaving first-person narrative and interviews with staff, administrators, and patients, Riverview Hospital for Children and Youth testifies to the passion and determination it took to spring children from an adult mental health ward and bring them into a place of their own. A companion ebook comprised of three original staff manuals will also be available.

Download or read book Norwich State Hospital written by Christine M. Rockledge and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norwich State Hospital (NSH), established in 1904, was more than just a series of mortar and brick buildings to house and treat persons suffering from mental illness. For nearly 100 years, generations of people dedicated their careers and lives to developing NSH as a humanitarian community for mental illness rehabilitation. NSH gained international attention from some of the world's most renowned psychiatrists for being the first state hospital to boast a brand-new state-of-the-art building to house all occupational therapies under one roof. Although NSH closed in 1996, the structure has continued to be one of Connecticut's most notable historical landmarks, despite its ongoing demolition and redevelopment. Today, Norwich State Hospital is still alive in the timeless, emotional memories employees and family members share of what it was like to work and grow up in a place where employees were not just employees and patients were not just patients; they were family.
Download or read book Department of Mental Health written by Connecticut. Department of Mental Health and published by . This book was released on 1867 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department began as three mental hospitals: the first at Middletown in 1867, called Connecticut Hospital for the Insane, now known as Connecticut Valley Hospital (CVH); the next, in 1904, Norwich State Hospital; and the third, beginning in 1933, Fairfield Hills State Hospital. Eventually all three were combined into one department. The current (2002) agency is the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services. This is the "single state agency for providing comprehensive mental health and substance abuse services throughout Connecticut." Records in this group include those for CVH, 1867-1976: superintendent's files and books, trustee minutes, surgical records, legal opinions, payroll ledgers and employee records, scrapbooks of activities, employee attendance records, records of the nursing school, and miscellany of operational records. There are also patient records from Norwich State Hospital, 1904-66, and admission and discharge registers from Fairfield Hills, 1933-72. In addition, the group contains minutes of the Commission on Alcoholism, 1945-59; monthly reports and papers of the Joint Board of Mental Health, 1948-55; files of the Associate Commissioner for Children and Adolescents, 1964-76; subject and grant files; and Advisory Board minutes for the Alcohol and Drug Dependence Division, 1956-75.
