Reason you chose this book

This study of staff brutality in 15 long stay hospitals showed abuse of patients who had been dumped there and it horrified me.聽 I was working alongside people named in the book.聽 Some were heroes, but I was shocked that others were still working. I was shaken to the core.

Review

Professor John Martin wrote about system failure.聽He showed how people with long term mental health problems or learning disability became invisible and staff became unaccountable when both were incarcerated and sequestered in the big Victorian institutional systems. The history of psychiatric 汤头条污料 was male, rough, and focused on mechanical restraint and treatments that would now be regarded as abusive.聽 It has been said that these hospitals were abandoned not because the conditions were scandalous, but when it became economically viable. This is our lesson for now.聽 Quality and human rights arguments make no difference. It鈥檚 all about the money.
