"This study deals with patient admissions to the South Florida State Hospital, Hollywood, Florida. The purpose of the study was to determine how the racial groups, age groups, and the eight counties in the hospital district were being served by the hospital. To do this, population figures for the district were distributed by age, race, and county. A sample of hospital admissions was then drawn, and distributed by age, race, and county of admission. The findings of the study are based upon comparisons between the population and the hospital sample, in this manner. It was thought that such findings would be of interest to the hospital, as a public facility, in evaluating the service to its constituents"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "August, 1959." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." / Advisor: Robert T.

Social agencies for several years have been aware of the problems created by the clients failure to follow through with referrals for special and continued services. More recently, psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers have focused attention upon after care for the discharged hospitalized patient. This study concerns itself with the use of after care services by the Veterans Administration Hospital's patients. The focus is on the veterans referred for after care to the Hospital Outpatient Clinic and the Mental Hygiene Clinic upon discharge from the hospital. The purpose of this study was to determine similarities and differences of those veterans. / Typescript. / "June, 1959." / "Submitted to the Graduate School of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." / Advisor: David L.
