Abstract: Since ancient times, people with mental disorders have aroused public interest. Their behavior has aroused fear, anger, and even pity in those around them. The care of the mentally ill and disturbed has been a long and bumpy road. From the days of isolation, torture and executions to the days of modern medicine. For 170 years, the Provincial Hospital for the Nervous and Mentally Ill has been striving to extend medical, psychological and therapeutic care to people struggling with mental disorders.Figure 1: Aerial view of the hospital
