Provincial Mental Hospital, Essondale, B.C, April 1st, 1944. The Honourable the Provincial Secretary, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit herewith for your consideration the Seventy- second Annual Report of the Provincial Mental Hospitals at Essondale, New Westminster, and Saanich. The following table gives a brief summary of the movements of the Hospital population during the year April 1st, 1943, to March 31st, 1944:— Movement of Population. Male. Female. Total. 2,368 105 3 470 1,557 92 370 3,925 197 3 840 Total under treatment- - 2,946 2,019 4,965 288 73 193 230 105 116 518 178 309 554 451 1,005 2,392 1,568 3,960 (1.) Increase in number of admissions this year compared to last._ (2.) Net increase in population at end of year __ — (3.) Rate of deaths to total treated (per cent.) — — (4.) Rate of discharges to admissions (exclusive of deaths)- 37 35 6.02 61.66 ADMISSIONS. An analysis of the birth column shows that, of the number admitted, 459 (or 54.642 per cent.) were Canadian born; 210 (or 25 per cent.) were born in other parts of the British Empire; and 171 (or 20.36 per cent.) were of foreign extraction. There were two whose birthplaces were unknown. DISCHARGES. The following table clearly shows that the shorter the duration of the mental illness before admission the greater are the chances of recovery through treatment:— Table showing Alleged Duration of Insanity, prior to Admission, in those discharged from the Three Institutions during the Year April 1st, 1943, to March 31st, 1944. Less than six months 261 Over six months 144 Not insane 8 Duration unknown 105 Total. 518 GG 10 MENTAL HOSPITALS REPORT, 1943-44. During the past year 518 patients were discharged in full. Of this number 87 were discharged as recovered, 280 as improved, 143 as unimproved, and 8 were not insane. This year there were 840 patients admitted to the Institution, while 803 were admitted last year, making an increase of 37 patients this year as against a drop of 31 the previous year. This is considered a low figure compared with the average over the years. TREATMENT. Insulin treatment is still carried on during the war periods. Many hospitals have foregone this service on account of insufficient and suitable staff to carry on this form of treatment. Some consider this treatment empirical and lacking in scientific foundation. However, in the application there is in body chemistry a proper balance of insulin and adrenalin. Insecurity of life over a period causes an increase in the production of adrenalin, with the effect that some of the insulin is neutralized, thus creating varying degrees of mental abnormality. In treatment with insulin an effort is made to establish in the end a more stable balance of insulin with adrenalin in the chemistry of the body. During the year 62 cases have been treated with insulin, with 24 on treatments at March 31st, 1944, with the following results:— Male. Female. Total. Percentage. 13 11 6 13 13 6 26 24 12 41.9 38.7 Unimproved _ - - _ 19.4 30 32 62 Disposal— 20 2 8 23 9 43 2 17 30 32 62 Which means that with 41.9 per cent, recovered and 38.7 per cent, improved, that 80 per cent, were benefited, which is a very good result as compared with other forms of treatment. There is another very desirable newer treatment, that of electric shock, being used for mental patients. While insulin is used for treatment of schizophrenia cases, electric shock has a better effect with acutely depressed and excited cases of mental disease. This was used in full complete course on 120 patients and incomplete with 8 patients. The results were:— Male. Female. Total. 6 19 12 18 35 38 24 54 50 37 . 91 128 Disposal— 16 3 2 3 13 44 2 16 1 28 60 5 18 Died later _._ _ 4 41 37 91 128 This treatment is indeed a blessing, dangerous excitements. It relieves much pain of depression and also SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. GG 11 Metrazol, a chemical shock treatment, is also used and does help in certain cases. It is not used as much now as formerly, as patients do not like it. There were 41 cases treated with some results. In some hospitals curare is used to lessen the convulsions. Those suffering from tuberculosis are isolated fairly well under the circumstances, and our numbers are not great. There are in all about 2.1 per cent, of active cases, which shows that the treatment and isolation are bettering the condition. The venereal (luetic) cases now under treatment of tryparsamide, neoarsphena- mine, and bismuth sodium tartrate number 41. Most of these patients have received treatment in other hospitals previously. The drugs sulphathiozole and sulphamerazine are used in Neisser infections. The amount of work accomplished in the Physiotherapy Department greatly lessened on account of lack of help in this Department. There were 560 treatments given to the female patients. The work of the X-ray Department has been quite heavy. There were 3,662 films and examinations done on patients and staff. The new and up-to-date machine has arrived but has not been installed as yet on account of delays. The work in the Eye Department has been carried on by the optometrist, Mr. Woodbridge, who was appointed, and his work has been well done. The Beauty-parlour is busy at all times and during the year it has been able to give 11,733 treatments in all. The Dental Department has done 3,867 treatments and examinations. Much relief has been given and prevention is well carried out. Miss Hagen has carried on the work of the Laboratory very well in the absence of Dr. U. P. Byrne, who is still on active service. Examinations totalling 16,308 have been conducted, and it has been a great aid in making diagnosis, and also aid in giving prescribed treatments. The volume of work done in the Psychological Department has shown a large increase. Miss Margery Munro has joined the staff. She was formerly with Alexandria Home. There is a gradual increase in demand for this service, and there will necessarily have to be an increase in staff. During the year 1,790 psychological tests have been done. Miss Tisdall, who carries on the work in the Occupational Department in the Women's Building and in the Admission Service, has been away taking a course in the work at the Washington University in St. Louis, Mo. There is a trend of advancement in this service and she is preparing to enhance this form of treatment. The existing war conditions have slowly and gradually had their effect on the adult nursing and nursing personnel, as has been found in other hospitals. There have been many changes—many of the nurses with years of service have gone and newer ones have taken their place. The over-all change renders in the total contribution a condition that is met only in time of national disturbance. It has also meant the change of lecture material. The situation on the male side is beginning to ease up somewhat. There seem to be more applications than formerly. The Superintendent of Nurses, the Chief Attendant, and their assistants deserve great credit for the way they have carried on during this long and arduous time since the commencement of world hostilities. The Social Service Department have certainly helped greatly in caring for the patients. The staff is comparatively quite small yet a great deal of satisfaction to patients and hospital staff has been given. There have been better contacts with patients and their homes. Homes have also been prepared for the patients' return. This not only helps the patient but aids in keeping him out, and aiding him in his adjustment to his environment. There is a larger and larger correspondence. The great service given by the Social Assistance has been sterling in value to our patients. GG 12 MENTAL HOSPITALS REPORT, 1943-44. The Child Guidance Clinic was called upon for part of the year for extra duty. The staff carried on well without medical examinations and consultations. It was greatly appreciated by the Hospital. The older idea that mental conditions and behaviour problems are due to heredity is going. In the light of modern science this cause is growing less and less. There is more stress being laid on the environment, both external and internal. This phase enters into the treatment—organic conditions of the patient and untoward things in his environment are adjusted. The clinical service must be extended as the many organizations request service, and appointments are months ahead. Other clinics and travelling clinics are being called for. It is not possible to do this now, but, of course, it will be after the War. The details of the numbers handled in the clinic are given elsewhere. The Farm has supplied proper milk to the Institution from the dairy herd. The cannery has furnished the Hospital with a large amount of very fine products which have added much to the diet of the patients. The pork produce enhances the diet and makes a pleasant change. The Farm has experienced the same staff difficulties as has the Hospital. The most important feature of the Farm and the reason for its establishment is to furnish the patients with employment and to contribute surplus purebred sires to agriculture of the Province. COMMENTS. In a medical way we speak of the buildings of a mental hospital as the physical plant, and while very important is quite secondary to intensive treatment service. It is indeed a step far in advance that you have set in motion plans for the completion of the admission centre at Essondale. It means more scientific and more modern treatment for the newly admitted cases. It is not only a step in advance but will be a unit not only appreciated by the patients but also the staff, relatives, and the public. It is indeed a true milestone of advance. The overcrowding still continues and it is dangerous to patients and staff, besides being expensive. However, the unit now being planned for the elderly to accommodate 100 is a step in the right direction. The trial of making room for elderly patients is a trying one indeed. It leads to interference with an attempt to properly classify and place patients in their proper group. It is not conducive to comfort to have elderly people with those actively disturbed. It is a great comfort to know that plans are being carried out to modernize the remaining buildings at New Westminster. Though the accommodation for numbers is not greatly changed the environment is much more humane, and the fire-hazard is lessened. The relatives and public will appreciate this timely act. The work of supplying further airing-courts is under way, and already the patients are enjoying what has been already made available. The new moving-picture booth made at New Westminster Institution is a great comfort to the picture operator. It also improves this service. Staff changes: Dr. W. R. Read resigned on October 3rd, 1943, to go into private practice. OBITUARY. Mr. J. McArthur, dairyman, Colony Farm, died on March 30th, 1944, after a long, efficient, and loyal service. Fred S. Taylor, attendant at Essondale, who joined the staff February 4th, 1939, enlisted in the active service September 15th, 1941, and was killed overseas. He was friendly, active, thoughtful, loyal, and is greatly missed. Mr. John Cameron, who joined the staff of the tailor-shop August 1st, 1927, passed away December 13th, 1943. He had many friends who miss him greatly. SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. GG 13 Mr. W. W. Galloway, head tailor at New Westminster, entered the service August 14th, 1922. He took great pains in his work, which was extensive. He came in contact with the staff a great deal and is much missed by his many friends. Mr. E. J. Mclntyre, Chief Engineer, who entered the service January 21st, 1918, being an employee of long standing saw many significant changes in the service. He was always cheerful, active and helpful to the Hospital and friends. His passing grieved his fellow workmen and friends. RECOMMENDATIONS. Construction of the building for intensive treatment of the more acute patients of the female population, because the acutely disturbed should be separated from the quieter, less active type; and, secondly, to give more definite relief to the overcrowding of patients. A new laundry building in New Westminster, as the old one has done yeoman service and it should now be replaced. Proper adequate cold storage. Central butcher-shop. Dry-cleaning facilities. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. With the closing of the year I would like to express our deep regret over the accident suffered by Dr. Ryan. It was very unfortunate, especially so in his case, when he has so busy a time, doing not only his own work as Superintendent of the Hospital, but also the work of an assistant physician. This is very hard at any time and to do this when temporarily handicapped is a task of proportions. He deserves the greatest credit for this all-out effort. It is very pleasing to see his progressive improvement. Again we express to the British Columbia Police our thanks for their co-operation in our work. I would also take this opportunity of voicing our sincere thanks to all those who have assisted in the work of the Hospital. I wish also to thank the Red Cross Visiting Committee for their enjoyable entertainments which they have given at the Hospital for the benefit of the patients. I would also like to bring to your attention the work of Mr. Macgowan, our Bursar; Dr. L. E. Sauriol, Medical Supervisor at New Westminster; Mr. T. A. Morris, Supervisor, Colquitz Mental Home; and Mr. H. Lonsdale, Foreman of Works. Finally, to you, Sir, and the Deputy Minister, and the officers of the Public Works Department, I wish to make formal acknowledgment of the understanding and sympathy with which you have recognized the many problems facing the Institution, and without which it would be impossible for the Hospital to maintain its progress. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, A. L. CREASE, General Superintendent. GG 14 MENTAL HOSPITALS REPORT, 1943-44. LABORATORY REPORT.

The year ended with personnel as follows: Registered Nurses, 15; mental graduates, 28; student-nurses, 170. The increase in mental graduates over last year's number came about by the change in policy of the Hospital, which enabled married women trained in psychiatric nursing to return to duty on the staff. The majority of this group are graduates of this school of nursing; a number, however, are from mental hospitals in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. A few Registered Nurses, too, have returned to duty with this arrangement, and this has been a definite aid in the endeavour to keep up a desirable standard of patient-care. Resignations for the year total 145 and new staff 164. The increase in members over last year comes about owing to the fact that with growing dangers due to overcrowding, the staff is increased to compensate. In many instances two untrained nurses are required to carry on the duties which could be effected by one who is trained. War continues to make inroads upon our personnel, and, while hours of work and wages are satisfactory, it is felt strongly that the lack of recreational facilities on the property is responsible for much discontent among members of the staff. Eighteen nurses received diplomas for the three-year course in psychiatric nursing. There were no Registered Nurses enrolled for postgraduate work in the past year. From a survey taken of nursing in mental hospitals in the United States and Ontario, by Laura Fitzsimmons, R.N., " It was revealed that there were three hospitals only offering postgraduate courses at this time, and in those three hospitals there was a total enrolment of four students. Therefore, it may be assumed that, temporarily at least, postgraduate work in psychiatric nursing has practically ceased to be." Fifty-three students from general hospitals have had a two-month affiliation course in psychiatric nursing in the past year. To quote again from Fitzsimmons's survey: " This method of affiliation enriches the background of the nurse's general hospital-work but does not as a rule make her care to follow psychiatric nursing after graduation." This has been our finding too, that the short time spent of two months here is not sufficient to give more than a portion of the subject to the student; they are here for too brief a period to get the satisfaction that comes from seeing the results of their efforts. Linea M. Duke, R.N., Superintendent of Nurses. SOCIAL SERVICE REPORT. GG 21 SOCIAL SERVICE REPORT. PROVINCIAL MENTAL HOSPITAL. The last year has shown changes in personnel due to the world conditions. The result of this has had some good and some bad influences on the work; but, as a whole, the staff has adjusted well to the changes and have given themselves whole-heartedly to the change, so that the programme has not suffered too much. We were very fortunate in not having had any long illness in the personnel. In order to cover the demands thrust on this Department by the Hospital staff, the workers were unable to take as active a part in the clinic or preventive programme. The referrals demanded more intensive work, especially those families where children were involved. However, to offset this, the occupational opportunities for the discharged patients have been more easily obtained. Besides those cases which were able to return to their families, twelve persons were placed in work and helped with their adjustment. As this Department has not a boarding-out system, we have made arrangements for patients to obtain accommodation from which they attended their occupation and have become self-supporting. Of the twelve, three had to return to hospital for further treatment. Six are off our books entirely, except for friendly supervision, and the other three appear to be doing well. The staff has made every effort to do good " first" contact with the family and many opportunities for good social case-work have in this way presented themselves. Thus hospital families and other social agencies have benefited. The problem of the aged and the " below six " mentally deficient child has been more acute until it now tries the patience of all concerned and the need for an immediate constructive programme essential for this Province which is considered to have the best Provincial social legislation. The care for the epileptic is also causing concern as well as the care for the mental defective. While wholesale employment has been a boon to this type of patient, it has also presented many pitfalls inasmuch that this type of person has not had stabilization in an institution and where the family have not had the advantage of learning through an adequately planned type of custodian care. The Social Assistance Branch has given the Department excellent co-operation and with their increased numbers has demanded more supervision and education along psychiatric lines. With their constant change of personnel, there is still a great deal more to be accomplished in this field. There has been more call for co-operative case-work with other agencies. This has necessitated conference work with agencies interested or, when the patients were out of town, more correspondence was necessary. The student work has been carried out as in former years, both with the university student, Social Service Department, and the Public Health Nurse, and also the nursing student belonging to the Mental Hospital. The visits to the patients in the Hospital wards have been emphasized this year, until now all new patients are seen by this Department as soon as possible after their arrival. On these visits the patients have had a chance to talk over their home difficulties and, in this way, the home and hospital have been closer drawn together. The nursing staff has always been most helpful in their co-operation and it has become a reciprocal effort for the patients' assistance. In each case the results of these conferences have been discussed with the physician in charge of the individual case. Very often the Social Assistance member out in the field throughout the Province is then written to and can call on the home and give more direct help to the family and, indirectly, to the patient by return reports. GG 22 MENTAL HOSPITALS REPORT, 1943-44. The Department has had the whole-hearted co-operation from the Hospital staff, the Social Assistance staff, and from my friends of the Hospital. We wish to express our appreciation to all departments who have so generously assisted us. Statistical report appended. Statistical.

There have been no major changes in Child Guidance Clinic this year. We have been able to examine and assist a few more patients but have not been able to broaden our services to outside districts. We are still serving Victoria, Nanaimo, Courtenay, New Westminster, and Chilliwack, but we have been unable to expand clinical work for the Interior of the Province. From our correspondence with teachers, social workers, doctors, etc., throughout the Province, we realize how acutely a full-time travelling clinic is needed. During the past year we have made one change in placing a full-time Social Worker in charge of clinic work only. She has been most valuable in doing follow-up work with those cases unknown to other social agencies in which there is a definite demand for therapy. Most of the cases have shown what benefit can be obtained through intensive case-work. Unfortunately, in 1943-44 we had two interruptions when the Psychiatrist had to be relieved of his clinic work by demands from the hospital service. This experience showed us how inadequately the clinic functions without a Psychiatrist. Psychology and Psychiatric Social Service are only a part of the team-work necessary in clinical psychiatry. The clinic staff did their best work but there were many cases on which we had to obtain emergency help from Dr. Crease. The experience also slowed up the work as clients had to be returned to clinic to complete their examination with the Psychiatrist. Most of the agencies and Courts knew we were working under a handicap and rallied to our assistance, and in this way the patients received more intensive help and care by the allied agencies. For part of the year we were also without a clinic nurse and therefore had the assistance of the Social Workers with the physical examinations. While they were not as great a help to the Psychiatrist, they, in turn, learned a great deal of medical information which was of value to them in their case-work both for clinic and hospital cases. Throughout the year there has been an increase of " family situations " studied. We have borne in mind that you can not treat an individual only, but the environment in which he lives must also receive attention; so that we have examined whole families as a means of adjusting the total situation. SOCIAL SERVICE REPORT. GG 23 Each year there appears to be more and more consultation service. Families known to us through former examinations have experienced unfortunate happenings and have come to the clinic with their problems for further advice. Agencies have also used the clinic as consultants in making plans for their clients. There has been quite a number of cases studied where the fathers have been away in the armed forces and the family difficulties have been precipitated by his absence. Vocational guidance has received more attention and psychiatric advice given. Schools and private physicians have known that the clinic will give this assistance and are making more and more use of it. Student training has continued in the clinic and, while time-consuming, we know that good work in this field pays a hundredfold. Psychiatry should not be for the use of the few working in this particular field but should be an implement for use in allied fields and for the individual. Lectures have been given to interested groups when requested. The clinic staff as a whole are most appreciative of the support persons in allied fields have given, particularly during the absence of Dr. Crease. Statistics. Vancouver. Victoria. Nanaimo.
