Waupaca County Asylum - Weyauwega, WI Physician’s Report To the Honorable Board of Trustees of Waupaca County Insane Asylum for the Chronic Insane: I herewith submit my report of the medical department of the Waupaca County Asylum for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1927. The general sanitary condition of the premises has been most excellent. Clean rooms and beds; clean clothing, and clean food. Patients are regularly bathed and cared for in a kind and careful manner. Patients able to work are permitted to do such work as their physical condition warrants, but no compulsion is used to get them to work. Those not able to work are provided with such occupation and entertainment as the Institution has available. There has been no epidemic during the past year and nothing out of the ordinary in the way of sickness. Surgery has also been very light…one fractured hip, caused by a fall, and one sprained shoulder. The mortality list for the year is as follows:
The patients’ welfare always receives first consideration and everything possible is done by the management to lighten the misfortune of those who are confined here through no fault of their own. In closing I wish to again thank the trustees and the management for the hearty co-operation they have always given me.
