Cincinnati Longview Hospital
This collection comprises annual reports from the Cincinnati Longview Hospital, spanning the years 1860 to 1907. Documenting the operations and developments of a major mental health institution during a transformative period in American history, these reports offer a unique insight into the evolution of psychiatric care, hospital administration, and societal attitudes toward mental illness. The reports detail patient statistics, treatment methodologies, financial matters, and infrastructural improvements at the Longview Asylum, later known as the Cincinnati Longview Hospital. As a primary source for understanding the history of mental health care in the United States, this compilation is invaluable for researchers and historians interested in medical history, social welfare, and institutional development in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These reports serve as a critical resource for understanding the historical context of mental healthcare and the challenges faced by both patients and practitioners during this era.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
