== About myself ==<br />
I am currently an employee of an outpatient medical facility working with the HIV positive and Homeless clientele and have a bachelors in psychology from a Wisconsin state school; I am currently working on my masters degree. I have worked in mental health and medical facilities throughout my adult career and am well versed in social security, medicare, medicaid and veterans affairs assistance program rules. I have also worked with the developmentally disabled and other medically complicated groups in both in and outpatient facilities for a number of years prior to completion of my degree. As a professional in the field I have a keen interest in the preservation of information on the current and past practices, facilities, and history of these facilities. I have recently gotten into photography but have always been an explorative sort and am a member on the www.Opacity.us forums as well (as run by the ever capable Mr. Motts).</div>Evilavatarhttp://asylumprojects.org/index.php?title=Arizona_State_Hospital&diff=16970Arizona State Hospital2012-02-29T18:32:26Z<p>Evilavatar: </p>

<br />
Eight years after Arizona became a separate territory from New Mexico, the concept that mental illness is a state responsibility was first recognized by the Territorial Legislature. On February 17, 1871, legislation was enacted which stated that the various Boards of Supervisors of the counties must provide for the confinement of all insane persons, "either in the County jail or in such other manner and place as shall be in their judgment be best for the safety of said insane person and of the community."<br />
<br />
In 1885, the 13th Territorial Legislature met to appropriate $100,000 for the construction of the "Insane Asylum of Arizona" in Phoenix. In addition, an Honorary Board of Directors of the Insane Asylum of Arizona was established. County bonds were issued for $3,500 for 160 acres with water rights 2-1/2 miles east of Phoenix. Construction began in 1886, to accommodate up to 280 patients, taking eight months to complete.<br />
<br />
The "Insane Asylum of Arizona" opened early in January 1887, for 61 patients with the completion of "D" building. This was actually 3 buildings with 2 patient wings and a central administrative facility.<br />
<br />
Under the Board's direction, the remaining 160 acres was cleared of brush for grain crops, a vegetable garden, a vineyard and an orchard with 2,000 trees. In addition, a small area was set aside for a staff and patient cemetery, which has 2400 graves dating back to 1888. Among those buried in "All Souls Cemetery" is Corporal Isaiah Mays, a Buffalo Soldier who earned the Congressional Medal of Honor.<br />
<br />
A Board of Control replaced the Insane Asylum Board in 1895 (and was later disassembled in the 1940's), to establish policies and procedures regarding declarations of insanity, patient confinement, and terms of release. There was no legal process for confinement, and since they were few institutions, persons were committed reasons such as old age, tuberculosis, and "feeble-mindedness."<br />
<br />
In 1902, the General Assembly of Arizona changed the hospital's name to the "Territorial Asylum for the Insane". By 1909, "C" building was under construction and 10 acres had been cleared for farming.<br />
<br />
After a fire in 1911, the Hospital was rebuilt in 1913, and named the "State Asylum for the Insane" when Arizona was voted into statehood. Two new buildings were completed — the Community Center with kitchen, dining room and auditorium, and "C" building.<br />
<br />
By 1922, the patient population had climbed to 568 and was still increasing. In 1924, the Asylum was informally renamed Arizona State Hospital and the change was made legal in 1958. World War II created major staff shortages along with a sharp increase in patient admittance. Census rates rose to 998 in 1942, and then 1,200 in 1945.<br />
<br />
During the 1940s, as medications were introduced by pharmaceutical companies, the Hospital played a leading role in trying new medications to help its clients. A social worker was hired during this time exclusively to discharge patients.<br />
<br />
By the early 1950s, the patient population was close to 1,800. Increases were attributed to state population influx, the admission of Japanese patients from war relocation centers and war casualties. During this period, new patients were required to appear before an insanity board, and few were declared "insane".<br />
<br />
In 1970, during the height of the human rights movement, the Arizona Legislature passed Senate Bill 1057 (A.R.S. § 3655) which required that a patient must be dangerous to themselves or others in order to be confined to the hospital. Restrictions were such that made it impossible to get in and easy to be released. Many patients who had been at the hospital for years were released in downtown Phoenix and the patient census dropped from almost 2,000 to 300 within a few months.<br />
<br />
In 1973, Governor Williams and the Arizona Legislature created the Arizona Department of Health Services. Within this department fell the Division of Behavioral Health Services to oversee mental health services for the State Department of Health and Arizona State Hospital<br />
<br />
In the 1980s, ADHS and ASH were sued in court case Arnold v. Sarn. The decision passed in 1989, which stated that "Arizona has failed to meet its moral and legal obligations to our state's chronically mentally ill population." The decision required a push toward community-based programs and services for discharged patients.<br />
<br />
During the 1990s, concern about mental health became a federal issue, generating reports from the Surgeon General's office and from high-ranking advocates. The Arizona State Hospital adopted Psychiatric Rehabilitation, a new model of patient care that encompassed all disciplines.<br />

Historical addition: Upon his death in 1925 Cpl. Mays was interred in "All Souls Cemetery" with a small numbered head stone as the only marker placed at his grave. In 2001, the marker was replaced with an official United States Department of Veterans Affairs headstone which stated his name, service history, and his status as a Medal of Honor recipient. Eight years later, in March 2009 under the care of the Old Guard Riders Inc., Cpl Mays' remains were disinterred, cremated and placed in an urn designed especially for him. On 29 May 2009, in a ceremony befitting a Medal of Honor recipient, Cpl Mays was interred in Arlington National Cemetery [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaiah_Mays]</div>Evilavatarhttp://asylumprojects.org/index.php?title=Palmyra_Sprigns_Sanatorium&diff=12475Palmyra Sprigns Sanatorium2011-11-14T21:30:37Z<p>Evilavatar: </p>

'''History''' <br />
Named after a city in the Syrian Desert because of the abundance of sand, Palmyra was incorporated on April 4, 1866. Six mineral springs, each known for their medical and therapeutic properties, were an important part of Palmyra’s early years. From 1870 to the early 1920’s, people from across the country visited Palmyra enjoying the healing waters at the Palmyra Spring Sanitarium. In 1924, the sanitarium became the National Druggist Home, but a few years later interest in the therapeutic mineral water treatments declined and the sanitarium was closed. In the late 1950’s the building was razed and the land leveled[http://www.enjoyjeffersoncounty.com/Palmyra.asp]. <br />
<br />
In 1924 the Sanatarium was converted to a home for aged and infirm druggists as part of a program run by the National Association of Drug Clerks [http://www.archive.org/stream/proceedingsofnor341913nort/proceedingsofnor341913nort_djvu.txt].

'''History'''<br />
<br />
Built in 1929 to serve the black population of Gary Indiana due to segregation laws that limited access to Gary's main hospital, this hospital was originally named McMitchell Hospital after it's founder Dr. Frederick McMitchell. The hospital severed the black community of Gary until it's closure in 1950 and was one of the first institutions in the area to provide segregated services with an all black nursing and medical staff. The hospital's attendance declined in the 1930's when Gary's Methodist and Mercy Hospitals desegregated and began to see black patients. Currently the site of the hospital is in serious deterioration and no plans, as yet, have been established to reuse the site. it has stood vacant since it's closure in the 1950's. <br />

'''History'''<br />
<br />
Built in 1929 to serve the black population of Gary Indiana due to segregation laws that limited access to Gary's main hospital, this hospital was originally named McMitchell Hospital after it's founder Dr. Frederick McMitchell. The hospital severed the black community of Gary until it's closure in 1950 and was one of the first institutions in the area to provide segregated services with an all black nursing and medical staff. The hospital's attendance declined in the 1930's when Gary's Methodist and Mercy Hospitals desegregated and began to see black patients. Currently the site of the hospital is in serious deterioration and no plans, as yet, have been established to reuse the site. it has stood vacant since it's closure in the 1950's. <br />

'''History'''<br />
Created in 1911 by Dr Ed Ford as a sanatorium and hospital on the shore of Trout Lake, Birch Lodge Hospital and Summer Resort Sanitarium never really saw much use for its intended purpose. Finished sometime in 1911-1912 Dr. Ed Ford died of rabies acquired from being bitten by an infected dog before the hosptial could fully get off the ground. Ford's family attempted to continue his work for a few years, but by 1915 decided to sell the property and building the mortgage holder due to low occupancy. From this point on the facility spent most of it's life as a Hotel and Lodge, though local history suggests it was used as the home of the forerunner to the state police for a short time around 1918. <br />
<br />
The house is currently listed on the Michigan Historic register and in the process of being refurbished as a bed and breakfast.<br />

Built in 1937 the Northern Michigan Tuberculosis Sanatorium opened in 1937 as a 128 bed TB Sanatorium just a few miles outside of Gaylord, Michigan. 5 accessory buildings were added and the facility took over a 160 acre plot before converting eventually being converted to a state hospital for the mentally handicapped. In 1980 the facility was closed, but the next year the facility was converted into the J. Richard Yuill Alpine Center. Named after the former commissioner of Corwith Township, the center now houses Gaylord High School, the University Center at Gaylord (M-TEC Kirtland), and various federal, state, and county agencies.<br />

St. Joseph's Sanitarium was opened in 1899 by the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph, Cincinnati, Ohio in 1899. Construction began in 1898 after a sisters suggestion that the salt bath facilities held curative properties and the spot was an ideal site for a convalescence home and hospital.<br />
<br />
In 1900 the 3rd floor of the building, with 50 beds, were saved as a hospital facility and sanitarium. By 1952 the mineral salt baths were phased out and the hospital converted to the treatment of chronic illness. <br />
<br />
The facility still stands today as a registered historic site. In 1990 ownership f the facility was transferred from the Sisters of Charity to Mercy Health Systems.<br />

<br />
Prior to building the Rhode Island School for the Feeble-Minded? in 1907, most patients were treated out of state at places with such charming names as the Connecticut School for Imbeciles and the Massachusetts School for the Feeble-Minded?. The Ladd School started as a farm colony, based on programs in other states were patients were housed in small cottage settings, as opposed to large institutions that came later, and worked in a rural setting doing small chores, farming, and later making of clothes and household items. In 1909 they erected a girls dormitory, as the boys was full and a waiting list was established.<br />
<br />
In 1917 the name was changed to the Exeter School, dropping the “feeble-minded”, as the term began to grow objectionable. After a decade of mis-management, low funding, and high over-crowded enrollment, in 1928, the Exeter School was a warehouse for society's refuse. Amidst a steady and growing controversy over his policies, Dr Joseph Ladd retired on June 1, 1956. It was officially closed as an institution of the state in 1993. During the early seventies, privately-run homes for the mentally disabled brought suit against the state for running such poor institutions. In 1986, law-makers tried to get it closed because of pending legal issues (child abuse cases), and Rhode Island wanted to abolish institutions from it's mental health programs.<br />
<br />
The last patient of the Ladd School was moved to permanent offsite, community based housing in March of 1994. <br />

'''History'''<br />
The Herman Keifer Hospital was a clinic designed to serve patients with "consumption" in the greater Detroit area. Named for the father of Dr. Guy Lincoln Kiefer, one of the staunchest advocates for increased medical care for people with what would later become known as Polio, Tuberculosis, Typhoid, and other illnesses, the Herman Kiefer Hospital was finally completed in 1911. The Senior Dr Keifer was a member of many medical boards, educational societies, a member of the underground railroad, and instrumental in the education of his son, who would go on to found this hospital in his name. Dr. Guy L. Kiefer began petitioning for the hospital in 1905, with work started, but quickly expanding need and legal objections from the community surrounding the suggested cite lead to the relocation of where the hospital would be created. <br />
<br />
In 1908 the first Tuberculosis patient was admitted to the temporary facilities built on the grounds of what would become the hospital. Most of the prior cases seen at the facility were patients with Polio or people suffering from other communicable diseases. The early patients seen were to be held for 2 months to teach them to "prevent rather than cure" the spread of disease in the community. <br />
<br />
Due to his efforts attempts were made to name the hospital after Guy Keifer, but he petitioned to have the hospital named after his father and instead received the first degree of "Doctor of Public Health" from the University of Michigan.<br />
<br />
Due to burgeoning need expansions were made several times, with the final facilities consisting of approximately 7 pavilion style buildings, a powerhouse, an Administration building and a Main medical building known as the Taylor Avenue Unit. <br />
<br />
Architects of the structures are as follows:<br />
Pavilions 1 & 2 (the contagious disease hospital; 1909-1911), the Administration building in 1909 (with expansion for power plant in 1918) and Pavilion 4 were designed by architect George Mason. The Power House (1922), and pavilions 6 and 7 (1919) were designed by architect Albert Kahn. The final addition during this period was the Main Taylor Avenue Unit done by Architect Albert Kahn and with the help of the W. E. Wood Contracting Co. contracting for the work. Later additions for this building were done by H. E. Beyster and Associates Architecture Co and O. W. Burke Co. contracting the work in 1953. <br />
<br />
Pavilions 3, 4, 5, and the Nurses building were built in 1913, but demolished before the application for a historic site was completed and there was no date of demolition listed. Several other outlying non-permanent buildings were also used at various times for patients with diphtheria, scarlet fever, tuberculosis, and other medical conditions that needed to be separated and quarantined to prevent the spread of their infectious conditions. Polio was also a common infectious disease for which patients were referred to the hospital and Iron Lungs were added to the facility for the treatment of the condition in 1958. Existing facilities for the treatment of smallpox on the grounds of the hospital were also incorporated into the facility.<br />
<br />
<br />
The site was still partially active and housed the Wayne County Dept. of Health along with some other offices. Throughout the life of the hospital several other organizations and committees used the facility. Most notable were Rehabilitation Institute of Metropolitan Detroit and the Metropolitan Detroit Polio Foundation. These two groups merged in 1953 and moved to a newly built hospital separate from the Herman Kiefer Hospital in 1958. <br />

'''History'''<br />
The Herman Keifer Hospital was a clinic designed to serve patients with "consumption" in the greater Detroit area. Named for the father of Dr. Guy Lincoln Kiefer, one of the staunchest advocates for increased medical care for people with what would later become known as Polio, Tuberculosis, Typhoid, and other illnesses, the Herman Kiefer Hospital was finally completed in 1911. The Senior Dr Keifer was a member of many medical boards, educational societies, a member of the underground railroad, and instrumental in the education of his son, who would go on to found this hospital in his name. Dr. Guy L. Kiefer began petitioning for the hospital in 1905, with work started, but quickly expanding need and legal objections from the community surrounding the suggested cite lead to the relocation of where the hospital would be created. <br />

The White Cloud Sanatorium was a Tuberculosis Sanatorium that was opened around 1900 by the Church of God in White Cloud, Michigan. Construction for the facility began some time around 1898 and by September of 1900 the facility had been almost completed. At least 60 surgical treatments were preformed before total completion of the hospital and sanatorium site. The hospital and sanatoriums charter states it was designed for, "the recuperation and treatment of chronic diseases." <br />

Opened in 1827 as the Oneida County Poorhouse, The Rome State Custodial Asylum began as a 2 story building on the outskirts of Lynchville to house paupers and the insane. In 1893 the school shifted toward assisting the "unteachable mental defectives" as well as housing those patients it was already chartered to house and changed name to the Oneida State Custodial Asylum. In 1984 the school again changed name to the Rome State Custodial School and was developed into a "colonial system" designed around teaching job skills via labor at off site "colonies". Rome reached a peak population in 1960 of 5,166. The last resident of the facility left in October 1989 and the facility closed in November of that year.

Sometime after the sale, the facility was merged with the Muirdale Sanatorium Campus and the Blue Mound Sanatorium was converted into a Preventorium for the treatment and monitoring of children that may have been exposed to TB.</div>Evilavatarhttp://asylumprojects.org/index.php?title=Children%27s_Preventorium&diff=10478Children's Preventorium2011-06-21T16:43:48Z<p>Evilavatar: </p>

'''History'''<br />
<br />
Rocky Knoll Sanatorium opened in 1926 for the treatment of TB for people in Sheboygan County. The facility served TB patients until the mid to late 1950's when it began to shift toward the treatment of the elderly. The last of the old sanatorium buildings was demolished in 1992. A new medical facility that serves the county rests on the former grounds of this sanatorium.</div>Evilavatar
