Original Note:

The Community Mental Health Act of 1963 shifted care from large hospitals to community-based settings. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/asylums/special/excerpt.html https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/article/deinstitutionalization-people-mental-illness-causes-and-consequences/2013-10
