Project Description
Dr Claire Chatterton, Staff Tutor, Faculty of Health and Social Care, The Open University in the North West, will explore the issues surrounding mental health and discuss both the medical and nursing care that the men received. Famous medical men are frequently discussed in accounts of the treatment of mental disorders such as shellshock, but much less is known about the nurses who assisted them and were expected to provide an environment which would promote and aid recovery.
