Ward 5, a mixed m tie ward.
According to Mrs. Howell,
Tthe program helps the pa
tlent get away from the hos-
pita' routine. The patients
on this ward had gotten so
dependent on the ward atten-
dants to do their thinking for
them, It is a'so designed to
he'p the attendant get used
to having the patients think
for themselves,'
The patients are divided into
four groups of 25 to each gro-
up. There are four steps for
the patients to advance. Steps
I, 2, and 3 and then by the time
the patient reaches Step 4 he
shou'd be ready to go home.
The patients learn to take
care of their own activities.
They learn how to work to-
gether as a group and their
personal appearance has im-
proved considerably, accord-
ing to Mrs. Howell.
