Bakırköy Psychiatric Hospital, short for Bakırköy Mazhar Osman Mental Health and Neurological Diseases Education and Research Hospital ((トルコ語:Bakırköy Prof. Dr. Mazhar Osman Ruh Sağlığı ve Sinir Hastalıkları Eğitim Araştırma Hastanesi)), is a mental health hospital of the Health Ministry located in Bakırköy district of Istanbul, Turkey. The hospital is named after Mazhar Osman, who is also considered as the founder of modern psychiatry in Turkey.〔〔 ==History== It was established with the initiative of Dr. Mazhar Osman (1884–1951) and approval of Minister of Health Refik Saydam (1881–1942) in the premises of Reşadiye Barracks at Bakırköy, Istanbul on October 15, 1924.〔〔〔 The facility in Bakırköy was initially named Istanbul Hospital of Mental Disorders and Neurology ((トルコ語:İstanbul Emraz-ı Akliye ve Asabiye Hastanesi)). The hospital was further developed by Fahrettin Kerim Gökay (1900–1987), Şükrü Hazım Tiner, Ahmet Şükrü Emet and İhsan Şükrü Aksel (1899–1987), who all were students of Mazhar Osman.〔 Main departments of the hospital was psychiatry, neurology and neurosurgery.〔 Mazhar Osman, who served as the hospital's chief physician until 1940, is the first in Turkey to apply brain surgery.〔 With worsening of the economic situation in Turkey during the 1940s, the number of patients rose from 3,000 up to 5,000.〔〔 Due to insufficient state budget, no other institutions could be established.〔 These conditions led to the circumstance that many inpatients had to share the same beds.〔 As a result, the mortality in the hospital increased.〔 The hospital complex underwent structural improvements such as in landscaping and renovation of the buildings.〔 The inner courtyard was encircled by a –long wall.〔 A copy of Auguste Rodin's famous statue The Thinker was placed inside the courtyard, which became a symbol of psychiatry in Turkey.〔 A second storey was added to some of wards.〔 In the 1960s, modern psychiatry methods were put into service.〔 Inpatients were inspired to join newly established various workshops for handcraft and outdoor sporting activities.〔 Three types of treatment conditions were formed as open door, semi-open door and closed door services.〔 As a remedy to the existing problem of overcapacity bedding, a mental health dispensary was opened in Istanbul, which was followed by more units throughout the city in later years.〔 In the 1980s, emphasis was placed on outpatient services by founding an outpatient psychiatric therapy unit as a countermeasure to the increasing number of patients.〔〔 The number of inpatients could be held limited through shortened bedding time by speedy examination and effective treatment, as well as discharge of patients with better conditions outside.〔 Efforts of the Chief physician Yıldırım Aktuna (1930–2007) in fundraising played a major role in the improvement of the hospital's treatment and healthcare facilities.〔〔 In addition, scientific activities were initiated also in the hospital.〔 In the 1990s, the scientific work, which began in the former decade, continued when new services and equipment were introduced diversifying the specialization areas in psychiatry, neurology and neurosurgery.〔〔 The "International Bakırköy Days" were organized and brought to international level up.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bakırköy Psychiatric Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
