Extract

The shortness of the tour allowed only a limited number of places to be visited, and the salient and most distinctive features of psychiatric and allied activities in each to be seen. These included general and mental hospitals, psychiatric clinics and reception units, observation wards, mental deficiency institutions, mental hygiene centres, child guidance centres, including nursery schools, and child delinquency work associated with juvenile courts, etc.
