Abstract

Psychiatric treatment units during World War II were set up behind front line units for the treatment of soldiers who suffered battle fatigue. It is reported that these units were much more successful in returning men to the front than those in outlying places. The concept of a "field clinic" in plants, farms, and factories has taken hold in certain of the Scandinavian countries. The therapeutic community aimed at treating the mentally ill has recently been the subject of observation by the Commissioner of Mental Hygiene in New York State, Dr. Paul Hoch. In this same state there has been considerable discussion of establishing mental health units in the areas where patients live rather than in some remote rural area.
