title: Hospital closure: maintaining staff morale.
abstract: Closing a large psychiatric hospital is a complex exercise, and one of the main tasks for management is to maintain staff numbers and staff morale during the run-down period, and to help staff find new and rewarding roles in the community based service. Alistair Bailey and Martin Barkley explain how this was tackled at Netherne Hospital.
