Abstract

Prior to 1867, there was one state hospital in Iowa. Located at Mount Pleasant, the hospital was very overcrowded and persons had to travel great distances to be admitted. Many insane persons in the State were deprived of the benefits of hospital treatment. This report takes a look at all superintendents for one hundred years.
