the treatment.


the treatment.
"You can see this effect al
ready In medical insura ance. A
few years ago insurance com-.
panies couldn't afford to cover
mental illness because treat
ment was SO drawn out. Teddy
several big companies cover
mental illness like any other,
and more will follow suit.
ssInsurance In itself will
eventually be tremendous help,
because when a man is covered
by insurance he is not afraid to .
seek early help when hs needs
less care. Indeed, the freedom
from worry over possible fl
nancial catastrophe II he be-
comes mentally Ill can help re-
ueve a mans mental pres
|sures."
Although the impact Of modern
|psychiatric thought is well on
the way to shaking the founda-
tions Of mental health care In
this country, the basis for this
"new" wave of thinking is far
from new.
In surprisingly modern
language, the founders OF the
Pennsylvania Hospital Qncluding
Benjamin Franklin) expressed
the belief that mental illness
should be treated In the COM
munity and should be part Of
the care offered by a general
hospital.
This hospital, the first In the
United States, was chartered at
Philadelphia In 1753, nearly 20
years before the first mental
hospital at Williamsburg.
During later decades, how
ever, this policy got little more
than Lip service at other than a
few enlightened hospitals, and
the generally deplorable treat
ment OF the mentally Ill led to
the reforms and Capitalization
OF the nineteenth century.
Despite good Intentions, cen
tralization too produced It's
faults, principally unwisldiness
and de-personalizsd treatment.
And, with the modern tools Of
lpsychiatry, the central hospital
lost many OF what advantages 1t
did offer.
81 can't think OF one category
of patients that does bettsr In d
centralized institution" says
Dr. Felix. "Acuts psychoties
shouldn't be treated there. We
know they do better In familiar
surroundings. Neither sheuld tAs
semi acute. They develop .hos-
pitalitis' and withdraw fufthr
into unreality, thinking that ths
world has Withdrawn from thsms
"It's liks q dead end for tha
chronic psychettc. At pAAi1hsa.
phia Hospital they took a grc11
OF these people whose average
stay had been Is years, put than
in open, unlocked wards, gavs
them small responsibilities xne
even got them downtowI
shopping. Within two years 81
per cent OF these patients were
out of the hospital and half were
holding Jobs. Furthermore, al
but six or seven per cent stayed
out. That's what personaizsd
care can do.
"The same holds true for
neurotics. It has been my ex-
perieHce that all OF these
patients need psrsonalized care,
and this you Just can't get In
most big institutions.
children, seniles, alcoholics,
all do better when they retaiH
their community ties"
What about the dangerously
i'll those who Nigh harm
others or themselves?
There are few Of these, re-
plies DR.. Felix, about one out
of every two or three hundred
msnta1 patients. This problem
Is not so prevalent that 1t can
not be handled in general hos
pitfalls.
ET Of cnfs seems TO prove
that Ben Frxzk3fH. started off
on the right idsas and most
modern psychiatrists are cer-
tain that he did.
