FROM THE HON' BLE SURGN.-GENL W. R. EDWARDS, C.B., C.M.G.,
M.D., I.M.S.,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Bengal,
To THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF BENGAL,
FINANCIAL (MEDICAL) DEPARTMENT.
Dated Calcutta, the 3rd April 1917.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit herewith the Annual Returns of
the three lunatic asylums in the Bengal Presidency for the year 1916 with
these short comments.
2. Accommodation.—The conversion of certain godowns and worksheds
of the Berhampore Lunatic Asylum into wards was taken up during the
year but were not quite completed. New godowns and worksheds which are
to take their place were constructed The total accommodation available in
the three asylums has so far remained unchanged, viz.—888 for males and
206 for females—total 1,094.
3. The male accommodation was fully occupied during the year, but
there was no overcrowding.
4. Admissions and Re-admissions.—Admissions and re-admissions fell
off slightly during the past year. They numbered 241 and included 85
criminals, and 38 observation cases, as compared with 244 in 1915, of which
101 were criminals and 35 observation cases. The Dacca Lunatic Asylum
had 15, and Berhampore 2, fewer admissions than in the previous year, while
the Bhawanipur Lunatic Asylum had an excess of 14.
5. Population.—The population, however, which the lunatic asylums
had to deal with, was larger than in 1915, being 1,343 against 1,316 in 1915.
The reason is that the year opened with a larger balance of the previous
year's population than was the case in 1915. The population at the end of
the year was, however, less than it was at the end of 1915, being 1,048
against 1,102, distributed as follows :—Bhawanipur 56, Dacca 300, and
Berhampore 692. This is satisfactory as the capacities of the lunatic asylums
are 61, 323 and 710 respectively.
6. The daily average population was smaller, 1,076.94 (493.62 being on
the criminal side) compared with 1,091.40 (509.59 being on the criminal side)
in 1915.
7. Discharges.—There was a large number of discharges from the
lunatic asylums, which is satisfactory, viz.—17 from the Bhawanipur
Lunatic Asylum against 6 for the previous year, 82 from Dacca as compared
with 60, and 76 from Berhampore against 63, or a total of 175 against a total
number of 129 discharges in 1915. This includes 69 discharges from the
criminal side against 53 of the previous year.
8. Recoveries.—The most satisfactory feature of the year's working is
the large number of recoveries. They numbered 129 against 81 in the
year before, the proportion of recoveries to average population being 11.98
per cent., as compared with 7.42 per cent. in 1915.
9. Forty-three, out of the 129 inmates cured, were lunatics who had
been admitted into the asylum during the year.
4
26. General.—The provisions of the Lunacy Act of 1912 were extended
to the insane ward of the Gobra Leper Asylum during the past year. There
were 3 leper lunatics confined in this ward at the beginning of the year and
3 were admitted—all non-criminal. Three of them died which again brought
their number to three.
27. We are told that the Ranchi Central Lunatic Asylum for
Europeans will be ready for occupation during the next cold weather. This I
trust may prove to be the case, because as soon as it is ready the inmates of
the Bhawanipur Lunatic Asylum will be transferred to Ranchi. The present
deplorable buildings at Bhawanipur must then be at once pulled down and
the place entirely rebuilt as an " Under Observation " Hospital for mental
cases. At present we have no such place for Indian patients and the need of
such a hospital is very keenly felt. I think we should provide accommodation
for 30 patients, both for Indian and European cases. This matter is engaging
my attention and I hope to submit a scheme shortly for the sanction of
Government.
28. I inspected our three lunatic asylums more than once during the
year and was thoroughly satisfied with the care and skill shown in their
management. I wish to express my thanks to Lieutenant-Colonel E. A. R.
Newman, M.D., I.M.S., of the Dacca Asylum, Major A. S. M. Peebles, M.D.,
I.M.S., of the Berhampore Asylum, and Captain N. H. Hume, M.B., I.M.S.,of the
Bhawanipur Asylum. These very capable officers are in each case doing
other work as well.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
W. R. EDWARDS,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Bengal.
