Title: [Psychiatric care between World War II and "Psychiatrie-Enquête": early approaches of reformation in Württemberg]. Author: Croissant D, Längle G. Journal: Psychiatr Prax; 2015 Mar; 42(2):102-4. PubMed ID: 25153178. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The article describes care in a psychiatric clinic between 1946 and 1975. This happens against the background of the current psychiatry-historical literature in which this phase of psychiatric care is described often summarily with the destructive words of the report of the 'Psychiatrie-Enquête' of 1975. Improvements achieved in this time were hardly examined up to now though they contributed substantially to the later effects of the 'Psychiatrie-Enquête'. METHODS: The medical annual reports of the psychiatric clinic of Zwiefalten, today ZfP Südwürttemberg, refering to the mentioned period were sighted and evaluated concerning their contents. RESULTS: In the called period evident organizational and structural defects are deplored in the annual reports. Nevertheless, from the late 1940 s on, modern care elements appear, as for example the broadening of the range of the therapeutic offers, multiprofessional treatment, diagnosis-specific concepts for the wards, opening of stations and extensive outpatient care. CONCLUSION: It is shown that already before the appearance of the final report of the Enquête commission clear progress concerning psychiatric care was achieved.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
