Expand/CollapseSCOPE AND CONTENTS

Other topics dealt with include chaplain and community services, foster grandparents, disease control, Medicare, parent groups, patient/resident advocacy, a mass chest x-raying of the staff and patients in 1949 as an effort to control tuberculosis, the display and sale of patients' craft items at the state fair, and the various changes in the hospital's name.

The files also include the hospital's Minnesota State Board of Health licenses (1945-1954, 1960-1978, 1983-1994), biennial report background files (1930-1954), and biennial budget presentation files (1960-1969); Chief Executive Officer files (1983-1999); licensing and variance files (1987-1999); admission and discharge reports (1990-1999); and files detailing its relations with Camp New Hope, the Lake Owasso Children's Home, Cambridge Area Developmental Rehabilitation and Education Center (CADRE), East Central Regional Development Commission, Minnesota Association for Retarded Children, and Minnesota Hospital Association.

Since the contents of the files in both subseries often overlap, the researcher should check both subseries.
