A Case for the Ordinary: The Patient Experience of Mental Health Care in Staffordshire, 1818-1960 (360G-Wellcome-210451_Z_18_Z)
This innovative cataloguing project will make accessible case notes of 38,000 patients treated in Staffordshire's three County Asylums, from 1818 to 1960. Collaboration with academic partners at the concept stage has ensured that research imperatives are addressed, with a particular emphasis on access to information in 20th-century patient records. The resources produced will be an open catalogue of early patient case files and a database of extracted information from case files less than 100 years old, the latter available through a simple access process agreed with our NHS Trusts. The method of cataloguing will permit a rolling programme of uploading newly open data to the catalogue and the ongoing involvement of our project advisory board will ensure that the resources have a wide academic reach. The breadth, completeness and representativeness of the Staffordshire collection and the resources produced by this project will offer a unique opportunity to interrogate data from patient case records for specific themes over an unprecedentedly long period. Staffordshire saw pioneering approaches in mental health care but conversely these records also provide an exceptional resource for studying the experience of ordinary English provincial patients at multiple sites over the broad sweep of public asylum history.
