title: [Experience in organizing a system of stepwise reabilitation for the mentally ill].
abstract: The paper deals with the organization of a system of rehabilitative treatment of mental patients in conditions of a large and industrially developed region. It is stressed that in order to organize a wide range of readaptation measures it is necessary to have material security, an expedient distribution of hospital beds, a high standard system of a continuity between the in-patient and out-patient (including day hospitals and occupational shops) services. In this light it is very important to know the general principals of treatment by social methods and a correct succession of therapeutical measures and a gradual readaptation, adequate to the mental condition of the patient. The effectiveness of the mentioned measures is confirmed by figures.
