1. The Psychiatric Clinic of the Warsaw Medical Academy (Klinika
Psyohiatryozna Akademii Medyoenej) was located in Pruszkow (N 52-10,
E.20-50), 17 km. southwest of Warsaw, within the State Hospital for
Nervous and Mental Disorders (Panetwowy Szpital dla Nerwowoi
Peyohioznie Choryoh), The prewar Psychiatric Clinic of the Faculty
of Medicine of Warsaw University was located in Warsaw at St. John's
Hja1?*"'hioh'"was? completely destroyed in 1944.
2. The, Psychiatric Clinic occupied two red brick buildings:
a. A large "H"-shaped building, partly one story and partly two
stori+ e,`which was called Pavilion IV (Pawilon IV) and housed
the men's seotinn (oddzial meeki), the office of the professor
in charge (the director), and most of the clinic's laboratories
and oonsultatiot rooms. /Tor : a detailed description of facili-
ties, see Enclosures 1 and 2?2
The second building was smaller, had two stories, and was called
Pavilion VI. This building housed the women's section (o??ldzial
kobiecy), or detailed description of the facilities, see
Enclosures 3 and 42
3. The Psychiatric Clinic was directly subordinate to the Medical Academy
in Warsaw in matters concerning the training of students and scientific
research, With respect to administrative matters the clinic was
dependent upon the State Hospital for Nervous and Mental Disorders
which was responsible for housing, hospital and medical equipment,
bedding, clothing, drugs, and food for patients. In addition to this,
the Psychiatric Clinic received small amounts of money for such ex-
penses as stationary,, transportation, and the repair of medical

equipment fro1 tie` Medical Academy through the State Clinical Hospital
of the Medical Academy in Warsaw,
Professor Doctor Jozef HANDELSMAN was director of the clinic. Person-
nel at the clinic could be divided into the following groups:
a. Professional:.. Ten doctors of medicine who were psychiatrists
(eight Of-'these were women); two social psychiatric assistants;
one laboratory tedhnician; 15 male nurses and ward attendants,
and 18 female nurses and ward attendants.
b. Adininistra.tive : ' With the exception of one secretary there was
no administrative personnel. All such duties, which were not
handled by nurses and attendants, were taken care of by the
administrative personnel of the State Hospital.
o. Patients:" On an average there were 70 to 74 female patients and
92 to 98 male patients.
The medical students came to the clinic only once a week, on Saturdays
for two hOu?e , for lectures and practical training. Except for records
of their'training and examinations, the, clinic had no responsibilities
in connection with the students. Personnel matters and salaries of
the educati,,nai staff (doctors of medicine) were handled either by
the State Clinical Hospital of the Medical Academy in Warsaw or by
the State Ho--pital for Nervous and Meiital''Disorders in Pruszkow.
The case'histories of those patients released from the clinic were
kept in the file., of the State-.Hospital for Mental and Nervous Dis-
orders.
The equipment of the Psychiatric Clinic was not adequate even in
comparison with low post-war standards in Poland, Ward equipment
such as furniture, bedding, bed linen, and clothing was all worn. and
was rarely replaced. There was hardly more than a change of bed
linen, personal linen, and clothing. This amount was inadequate'
since the patients were very hard on such items. The surgical equip-
ment., dressings, and drugs were supplied by the State Hospital and.
small quantities were kept on hand in each section of the Psychiatric
Clinic. Only on'rare occasions were special drugs, needed for re-
search; supplied by the Medical Academy. The medical, educational,
and research equipment, as well as the library, which was owned and
,administered by the Psychiatric Clinic, consisted almost entirely
of equipment inherited in 1947 from the former Faculty of Medicine
of Warsaw University. There were two ophtha?.mosco?e;, one electro-
encephalograph, three microscopes, one slide ~roJ.ctor, one still
camera and one movie camera with projector and duplicator, two
centrifugal separators, and one special apparatus for testing con-
ditioned reflexes which was received in 1953,
6. The wards and rooms for patients were rather simply equipped with
only beds, benches, and, in the smaller rooms, bed tables. The
doors within the wards had no handles and those leading to the out-
side were always locked. Doctors and attendants opened these doors
with special keys. During 1947 and 1948 there were always from
one to five beds empty in both the men's and women's sections, but
41 after 1949 the wards were filled to capacity and it was usually
necessary for more than 20 patients to sleep on mattresses on the
floor. The women's section in Pavilion VI had only 64 beds from
1949 to 1954 but usually about 70 patients were kept there. The
men's section in Pavilion IV had 96 beds in 1947.' In 1949 the
number of rooms in use was reduced to accommodate 83 beds and remained

doctors worked on their own in private
examination rooms. (At 11)00 there was a
break and all doctors gathee'ed in one of
the rooms for tea; )

(A dim light was kept on in all wards
during the night.)
12. The working day for doctors lasted from 0800 to 1300 hours. In addition
they took turns serving duty from 1300 to 1900 hours three or four
times a month. Thus, their working week consisted of 36 hours. A
check-in list had to be signed by all doctors, except the director.
From 1900 to 0600 hours the doctor on duty at the State Hospital was
also in oharje of the Psychiatric Clinic. In oases of emergency one
of the resident doctors was called.
13. The ward attendarL`- were on duty for 24 hours and worked in three shifts:
In the men's section: Six ward attendants from 0600 to 1400 hours.
Three attendants from 1400 to 2200 hours.
Two from 2200 to 0600 hours.
In the women's section: Six . ward, attendants from 060 to 1400 hours.
Four attendants from 1400 to 2200 hours.
Three from 2200 to 0600 hours.
The working day for nurses was from 0600 to 1400 hours and from 1600
to 1800 hours. From 1800 to 0600 only one nurse (from the State
Hospital) was on duty.
14. Except Tuesdays, the director started his work every morning at 0800
hours. His daily program began with a short conference with the
deputy professor after which he accepted visitors such as students
and relatives of the patients, and made decisions on matters which oou.d
not be settled,by his deputy. He did not visit the wards daily but
examined patients in his private consultation room. He examined each
patient at least two times - the first time immediately after arrival
and the second time after the psychiatric test had been made by the
assistant in charge of the patient. (Each assistant was usually in
charge of about 20 patients.) After this examination, diagnosis and
treatment was determined by the director. The usual weekly program
at the Psychiatric Clinic was as follows:
Monday. At about 0830 hours the director began examinations of patients
from the men's section who were introduced by the assistant
in charge. All other doctors were allowed to remain during
these examinations. At 1100 hours he began examination of
patients from the women's section. The doctors, each of whom
were responsible for about 20 patients, usually began their
day by vipiting the wards. Prior to going, the doctor examined
the temperature readings and written reports regarding the
behavior of the patient during the last 24 hours.

Tue sday, The director was not at the clinic on Tuesdays. (He was a voivod--
ship psychiatric consultant and in this capacity had to inspect one
of the psychiatric hospitals or the Central Consulting Station for
Psychiatry on this day.) During his absence the deputy professor
was in charge. The doctors were occupied with their routine work.
We_ dnesday. The director was, as a rule, occupied with his work at the clinic
or with examining outside patients until 1100 hours. At 1100 hours
each Wednesday there was a conference at the olinio. The director
presided and all doctors from the Psychiatric Clinic, from the
Psyohoneurologioal Institute, from the State Hospital. for Nervous
and Mental Disorders, and from the Central Consulting Station for
Psychiatry attended, in addition to certain other doctors, mostly
young, from other institutes and clinics. At these conferences
one or two oases were usually demonstrated by the responsible
psychiatrist. There was always a discussion concerning diagnosis
and treatment after each demonstration. Once every six to eight
weeks the reading of a foreign medical publication, usually Russian,
took place instead of the usual demonstration of oases.
Thursd y. The director usually examined patients from the men's section
until 1100 hours from the end of October to 15 May. (From 1 May
until the end of October he examined students at this time.) All
the dootnnrs were engaged in their routine work. A lecture on
the Pavlc., theory was given by Senior Assistant Dr. PIAKOWSKA
from 1100 to 1300 hours. All doctors were required to attend.
Usually on paragraph from Lectures on the Functions of the Bratt
by Pavlov was discussed as in a seminar-.-
If ET -_
n a on, everyone was supposed tL, study this subject during the week. However,
slight attention was paid to this and consequently the same program
which was conducted in 1952 _ 1953 had to be repeated during the
year 1953 - 1954.
Fr~. In the early morning the director was engaged in his own work. At
1000 hours he began the examination of patients from the women's
section. The deputy professor usually inspected the wards at this
time. Other doctors were engaged in routine duties.
3aturday. Each Saturday, from 0815 to 1000 hours, the director gave a two-
hour lecture to the students in the theater auditorium at the
State Hospital. Cases were usually demonstrated during the lectures.
During the school year the professor, usually held approximately
60 hours of lectures but only about 70% of the students attended.
After the lecture, from 1000 to 1200 hours, half of the students
attended practical training. One half of the students were given
this training during the fall semester, the other half during the
spring. The students were divided into six groups, each of which
was trained and supervised by an assistant. The training consisted
of demonstration of oases and examination of patients by the students
who, in this way, became acquainted with methods of examination and
diagnosis.
S_ ?d . Only the doctor on duty was present at the clinic from 0900 to
1300 hours. The other doctors were off duty. The director was
generally present from 0900 to 1030 hours. He accepted visitors
during this time, sometimes examined students, and held special
consultations.

15. The professional level of the doctors employed at the Psychiatric Clinic
was, with respect to:experience and medical ability,, quite satisfactory.
The senior assistants were well-trained and capable in performing their
teaching functions. The junior assistants were still being trained in
their specialized'fjelds and gaining experience from conferences and
discussions with the professor during case demonstrations. Most of
the doctors liked their jobs,, were interested in special cases, and
discussions were Spirited and lively. Of the senior assistants only
two were well acquainted with the Pavlov theory but all assistants were
acquainted with it to the extent of being able to discuss it with
students. The assistants did not, however, spend as much time reading
and studying.. Polish and foreign medical publication; as they should and
their interest in'science and research was limited despite pressure
exerted by the director. This.was.partly duf,,to overwork since every
doctor had outside work in addition to his duties at the clinic and also
to the fact that time was lost going to and from work. (Most doctors
lived in Warsaw.) The work was performed satisfactorily as a rule but
almost all doctors were behind on their case histories and they seldom
stayed in the clinic after hours. The doctors displayed an ethical
attitude but some did not show sufficient interest in the well-being
of the patient as far as occupational therapy and recreation were
concerned. Db:sotcrs were on friendly terms with each other but there
were no close social relationships because their places of residence
were too sea- " a-:rw E as a result of the housing difficulties. With the
exception of re young doctor, no doctors were members of the Communist
Party and the,,, discussed politics freely among themselves.
16. The two psychia,? essistants (social workers) were neither enthusiastic
about their jobs u,. were they particularly interested in the well-being
of the patients. Both were graduates of the State High School for
Psychic Hygiene (Panstwowa Wyzsza Szkola Hygieny Psychicznej), (This
school was closed in 1950.) Most of their time was spent writing case
histories to be sent to the Central Consulting Station of Psychiatry
after the discharge of the patient. They also spent about one and
one-half hours daily observing patients who had received insulin treat-
ments. They sometimes visited the families of patients to make inquiries.
But the problem of organizing proper recreational activities for the
patients was not handled properly, chiefly because the director was not
particularly interested in this phase of the work.
17. The performance of duties bv' ward attendants and nurses was only satis-
factory. this could be attributed to their poor 25X1
education; most of them had attended elementary school only, The
majority of attendants were from 30 to 40 years old and had been employ-
ed at the Psychiatric Clinic for about 10 years. During this time
they had gained a good deal of practical experience though real train-
Ing consisted of only a brief period at the Hospital for Nervous and
Mental Disorders at the time of employment. They showed no understand-.
ing of the patients, lacked the ability to observe and report, and
their incompetence sometimes took the form of commands and severe
measures. When a patient became excited or violent he was bound to
the bed by strips of coarse cloth; straight Jackets were seldom used.
The patients were given sedatives. There were cases of beating and
maltreatment. Investigation was useless because the patients were
afraid to say anything against the attendants and the management; was
afraid to discharge unsatisfactory personnel because it was difficult
to find replacements, especially men, who could earn more in industry.

18. There was only one fully qualified nurse; she was a graduate of the
two-year State School for Nurses. The other male and female nurses
were promoted from their positions as ward'attendants. They had had
only the half=year'training course at the State Hospital and for this
reason their qualifications were below standard.
19.
On
as
of
the whole, the' ward attendants and nurses did their jobs as well
they could. About 10% of this auxiliary personnel were members
the PZPR; the fact that they were members was well-known.

Some of the senior ward attendants also received about 90 zlotys
monthly as a supplement for performing .certain administrative duties e
21. Ward attendants often received additional voluntary contributions from
the families of patients for "special attention". Accepting money
was strictly forbidden but this-was impossible to check and it did
actually Improve the care of the patients. In addition some of them
benefited, without making payment, from meals during working hours,
and from the use of bed linen, soap, washing powders, and-floor
polish supplied to the clinic. Those attendants who lived at the
clinic paid very little for their rooms and were subject to a fixed
wholesale price for electricity because there were no individual
meters.

23. The food for patients was prepared in the main kitchen of the State
.Hospital, brought by patients to the ward kitchens, and distributed
there. The'food-wa6 served on metal plates and eaten with spoons.
The three meals served each day usually consisted of the following:
Breakfast: Coffee with milk and bread with jam or butter.
Lunch Soup, a vegetable, a main dish of macaroni or
dumplings with meat only four times a week,
occasionally eggs.
Supper : Tea, bread with seasoned meat or sausage, or
bread with jam or butter, sometimes grits with
milk.
Meals, especially lunch, were substantial and there were always second
helpings for those who wanted them. Additional food, usually bread
with sausage and butter, was served in the afternoon for those who
needed it. There were special diets including a salt-free one for
those who required such diets. The patients who worked at the hospital
farm received an additional meal in the afternoon and 5 to 10 cigar-
ettes daily. Scme patients were fed artifically once or twice a day.
They receiveC about 11 liters of liquid food which contained milk,
butter, oats, sugar, salt, eggs, and vitamins. About 50% of the
patients received additional food from their families. This was kept
in the ward kitchen and distributed by attendants when desired by the
patient.
24. Patients were required to deposit their money with the hospital cashier
upon entering the clinic. If money was needed for candy or cigarettes,
usually bought by one of the attendants for-the patients, it was given
to the nurse with the permission of the doctor in charge. Only those
patients who were permitted to go out were allowed spending money and
then only when authorized by the doctor.
25. All letters sent to patients and letters written by them were checked
by the doctor in charge of the patients. Really absurd letters were
kept in the patient's file but letters addressed to the state public
prosecutor, no matter how nonsensical, with complaints about the clinic
had to be forwarded. As a result t e ecutor sometimes came to the
clinic to investigate but only two such occasions dur- 25X1
ing the last few years,
26. Families were permitted to visit patients each Thursday between 1300
and 1600 hours and on Sundays and holidays between 1000 and 1200 hours
and 1400 and 1600 hours. Visits were supervised by ward attendants
to ensure that no drugs, sharp instruments, or letters were given to
the patients. Gifts of food were permitted. No children were allowed
as guests,
27. Hygienic conditions at the Psychiatric Clinic were poor; the men's
section was particularly bad. (Lice were found there twice during
1953.) The patients were indifferent about washing and the attendants
paid slight attention to their cleanliness. There were frequent water
shortages (two to four times each month) which sometimes lasted from
one to three days and in addition the pressure was often low even when
water was availabl.e."New patients frequently could not be bathed upon
arrival and the rest rooms, despite the fact they were disinfected
every day, were not sufficiently clean. There was an inadequate supply
of bed and personal linen and the laundry was irregular. At one time
the bed linen in the men's section was not changed for six weeks? There
always seemed to be enough water for dishes which were washed in the
ward kitchens

28. The State Hospital iri which the Psychiatric-Clinic was-located was not
connected to the Pruszkow city. water system. It had an installation of
its own with a well And pump. The pump, however, was old and worn out
and was the chief cause ofthe poor water supply. plans were underway
to construct a new installation but no money had been available.
29. There was no central heating, at the clinic; tile stoves were used. The
stoves were old, did not'function well, were dirty, and a constant
cause of trouble. It was, however, warm enough during winter months
in the wards and the patients' rooms. The corridors, consultation
rooms, and laboratories were never properly heated, prindipally because
there was no personnel to attend to this. Electricity was supplied by
the Pruszkow power station; there was no supply of gas,
