Publisher's Synopsis
This volume contains the Annual Report of the Trustees of the Westborough State Hospital for the year ending in 1910. As a historical document, this report offers valuable insights into the operations, patient care practices, and administrative concerns of a late 19th and early 20th-century psychiatric institution. It provides a snapshot of the approaches to mental health treatment and institutional management during a period of significant evolution in psychiatric medicine. Researchers and historians interested in the history of mental health care, public health administration, and the social history of Massachusetts will find this report a useful primary source. The detailed accounts of the hospital's activities offer a glimpse into the daily lives of both patients and staff within a state-supported mental health facility.
