The report was based on anj, investigation by three of the Indiana Department of c Administration — Deputy Com- i. missioner James Berg, Public 1 Works Edwin Gibson i and Supply Director A. P. Bayt. § Indiana Mental Health Com--missiener Stewart Ginsberg a agreed that the village idea of treatment for epileptic patients which prevailed when the insp- , tution was founded is obsolete, t He said efforts are being made -i to change the layout, so that it 3 will fulfill its purpose as a state* hospital. “Almost all of the dificiencies - reported can be directly traced to the double-institution operated at “At the turn of the century, when this Institution was constructed, the physical Isolation ol the sexes by a considerable distance was the approved plan.” Gibson said in his report the state “cannot afford New Castle - State Hospital. Such a widely- - dispersed and archaic structure housing only l,o°o .patients is not only economically unsound but is diametrically opposed to our present efficient technology.” Bayt said there were 10 kitchens serving 28 areas and he recommended that a central _ kitchen be established.
