Accommodation
Although the number of beds available to our psychiatric
patients is unspecified, little trouble is experienced in obtaining admission
of adults to Bexley Hospital within whose catchment area
this Borough falls. Our difficulties arise with the children for, other
than at the Maudsley Hospital which caters for the country as a
whole and is therefore very selective, no such accommodation is
available to them. Limited treatment is afforded at the Castlewood
Day Hospital.
