Extract

In view of the increasing demand for the in-patient care of old people in Essex, a psycho-geriatric unit was set up at Severalls Hospital, Colchester in 1960 to provide a comprehensive service in its catchment area. The organization of this unit has been described by Whitehead (1966) and that of the day hospital by Haider (1967).
