The Mental Health Foundation says
rigorous monitoring of the mental health sector must continue, following a
report into psychiatric care. A Confidential Forum group report
into the experiences of former patients at psychiatric hospitals until late
1992, was issued yesterday. Mental Health Foundation chief

caused by large-scale institutions. She says people still report
negative experiences of the mental health system so there needs to be
continued scrutiny of its services. She says care needs to be taken
that small institutions don't develop within community care
