  • STARCROSS HOSPITAL: What the Voices Tell Us
    STARCROSS HOSPITAL: what the voices tell us Foreword A case study about moving to Care in the Community, written by David King, was published by the Nuffield Trust in 1991. [1] It sought to describe how and why the institutions around Exeter, in Devon, were closed in the 1980s, and to inspire and enable other health areas to follow suit. It was written from the perspective of overseeing the push from hospital to community care, as David was at the helm of the Exeter Health Authority throughout this period, before moving to New Zealand where he would lead similar change. Before the first of the institutional hospitals in the Exeter area closed – the Royal Western Counties Hospital at Starcross – David set in train a project to create an oral archive. Now, the opportunity has come to publish extracts from the interviews alongside a commentary drawn from David’s words – from then (1988 and 1989), from 1991, and with fresh eyes from 2020. I hope this will be a useful companion to the 1991 publication but also a tribute to those who lived and worked at Starcross Hospital as well as a window on an important part of the social history of the village of Starcross. Caroline Hill [1] Moving on from mental hospitals to community care – a case study of change in Exeter, written by David King, published by the Nuffield Trust, 1991. - 2 - CONTENTS PART I Setting the scene: page 5 Introduction The move to community care The fervour was born Why Starcross existed… Why the Starcross era came to a close… Why Starcross should not be forgotten page 11 The
