    WOKING’S WORLD WAR II HOSPITALS Iain Wakeford 2017 s in the Great War, the Second World The Southern Railwayman’s Orphanage in Oriental Road was taken over as the part of the ‘Woking War Hospital’. War also saw a number of local After the war the Home took over the ‘Wynberg’ War Hospital (the house with a corner turret, above) across the road A hospitals converted (in part) into as extra accommodation. ‘emergency war hospitals’, such as Brookwood Asylum, the Woking Victoria Hospital and the Woking Maternity Home (Wynberg) – but other local institutions and private residences also played their part such as the Southern Railwaymen’s Home in Oriental Road. The Southern Railway Magazine from May 1940 noted the many meetings between the Board of Managers of the Railwayman’s Home, the Office of Works and the Ministry of Health regarding the take-over of the orphanage. They proudly pointed out the ‘complimentary remarks which have been made as to the high standard of maintenance and hygiene to be found in the Home’ as well as favourable comments regarding the children’s library. The children had already been evacuated to places such as Basingstoke and Guildford, although how much safer they were there as opposed to Woking is perhaps debatable. Another local institution which catered for a number of war wounded was the St Nicholas and St Martin’s Homes at Pyrford run by the Church of England Waifs and Strays Society. Their expertise at dealing with children with various disabilities proved vital in the treatment of servicemen who suffered similar injuries during the war.

    Appointment brief Chief Operating Officer August 2020 Introduction South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) is an exceptional organisation. Everything we do as a Trust is to support people to recover from mental illness and to help them improve their lives. Benefitting from world-class research and innovation, award-winning services and a world-renowned brand, we are uniquely placed to provide the best possible services to our local communities and beyond. Our biggest asset is our passionate and highly skilled workforce, who are dedicated to providing the best quality care to the people who use our services, often in difficult circumstances. We have managed the many challenges that COVID-19 has presented with great success and this has only been possible through the hard work and commitment of our staff. We are pleased with our internal patient experience survey results, where 96% of respondents said they found staff kind and caring and 87% of respondents to the NHS Friends and Families Test said that they would recommend the Trust to their friends and families based on their experience of the services provided. Operating across more than 90 sites, including Bethlem Royal Hospital and Maudsley Hospital, we provide a staggering range of services, ranging from core mental health services to our local boroughs, and more than 50 specialist mental health services across the UK.

  • The Patients of the Bristol Lunatic Asylum in the Nineteenth Century 1861-1900
    THE PATIENTS OF THE BRISTOL LUNATIC ASYLUM IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY 1861-1900 PAUL TOBIA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts, Creative Industries and Education March 2017 Word Count 76,717 1 Abstract There is a wide and impressive historiography about the British lunatic asylums in the nineteenth century, the vast majority of which are concerned with their nature and significance. This study does not ignore such subjects but is primarily concerned with the patients of the Bristol Asylum. Who were they, what were their stories and how did they fare in the Asylum and how did that change over our period. It uses a distinct and varied methodology including a comprehensive database, compiled from the asylum records, of all the patients admitted in the nineteenth century. Using pivot tables to analyse the data we were able to produce reliable assessments of the range and nature of the patients admitted; dispelling some of the suggestions that they represented an underclass. We were also able to determine in what way the asylum changed and how the different medical superintendents altered the nature and ethos of the asylum. One of these results showed how the different superintendents had massively different diagnostic criteria. This effected the lives of the patients and illustrates the somewhat random nature of Victorian psychiatric diagnostics. The database was also the starting point for our research into the patients as individuals. Many aspects of life in the asylum can best be understood by looking at individual cases.
