"Asylum for the Insane" refers to institutions established in the 19th and early 20th centuries to care for individuals with mental illnesses. These facilities aimed to provide a safe environment for patients, offering treatment and support, often in a more humane setting compared to previous practices. Over time, the perception and treatment of mental health evolved, leading to significant changes in how asylums operated. Many asylums were criticized for overcrowding and poor conditions, prompting reforms and the eventual shift towards community-based mental health care, emphasizing integration and support for individuals with mental health challenges.
