title: [" Is it possible to offer innovative services in psychiatry ? The case Jean-Talon "].
abstract: The authors describe their experience at the Jean-Talon Hospital. In 1975 a department of psychiatry was created according to a new model. After describing the vicissitudes of the project, the achievements and failures, the authors analyse the reasons for the failure. There are several reasons : the medical and administrative powers who refuse change, and the members of the team who do not feel prepared to assume the power.
