State commits to end mental hospital slums
State Sen. Earle F. Morris Jr. told the Aiken Lions Club that South Carolina, via the legislature and the Department of Mental Health, will eradicate mental hospital slums. He cited accreditation of three Columbia hospitals and outlined goals to train mental health manpower, upgrade facilities, and decentralize with local clinics. He noted a six year drop in daily state hospital population, though admissions rose with population growth and social complexity. The good news, Morris concluded, is that more South Carolinians with mental illness are getting well.
