I was a patient there in1962. There were no seclusion rooms. Patients on open wards were allowed to leave the grounds on a day pass at 7 AM and did not have to return until 10:30 PM . There were locked wards but patients were only put on them if they acted out or showed other signs that need close supervision. There were however back wards that were horrible. I saw them.luckily the patients on these wards were so far out of contact ,that they had no awareness of their suroundings.
