Description:Excerpt from Annual Report of the Trustees of the Boston Psychopathic Hospital: For the Year Ending November 30, 1926 There is no reason why a knowledge of nursing of mental diseases should not be a part of the regular curriculum for nurses. And once more we would particularly commend the Commissioner of the Department of Mental Diseases for aiding and abetting so substantially the ideals of service and scientific progress which prevail in this hospital. William Healy, Chairman; Channing Frothingham; Esther M. Andrews, Secretary; Charles F. Rowley; Allan Winter Rowe; Carrie Innes Felch; William J. Sullivan. Director's Report December 9, 1926. To the Board of Trustees of the Boston Psychopathic Hospital: In accordance with the provision of the statutes I submit for your consideration the report for the statistical year ending September 30, 1926, and for the fiscal year ending November 30, 1926. During the past year the work of the Hospital has progressed smoothly and a constant effort has been made to maintain the standard of accomplishment in relation to each of its numerous functions. The primary role of the Hospital is the care and treatment of the mentally sick. It has also to make a diagnosis in the case of a large number of individuals, whose problems are to a large extent social problems, such as individuals referred from the courts under various charges, individuals whose difficulties are under consideration by welfare organizations, and whose problems require some technical analysis by a psychiatrist, individuals, both juvenile and adults whose adaptation at school or in the factory and store has been so unsatisfactory that special technical examination is required. In addition to the diagnosis and treatment of patients, the Hospital is responsible for prosecuting research into the nature and causes of mental disorders and into the problems of treatment. Another important function of the Hospital is as a training centre for many types of workers in the field of mental disorders; these workers make the valuable contribution of their services to the Hospital, while they get from the Hospital opportunities for work which are highly appreciated. On the Personnel of the Hospital The Hospital is dependent for its smooth working upon the intelligent cooperation and personal good will of the various members of the different departments. The general practitioner dealing with individual patients in the home, with complete elasticity as to the arrangements which can be made, sometimes fails to realize the limitations and restrictions under which the medical work of the Boston Psychopathic Hospital is of necessity carried out even with the flexibility of arrangements for which the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has an enviable reputation. No patient can be admitted without a certain formal authorization of varied nature. The duration of the stay in the Hospital may be limited by the nature of this authorization. Thus, the great majority of patients are admitted to the Boston Psychopathic Hospital under a certificate which only authorizes the Hospital to keep the patient for ten days, and should it be desirable for the patient to stay longer he must either make a written statement to that effect himself or application for another form of certificate must be made.
