A powerful and poignant documentary that tells the story of how care of people made the move from asylum to community.
Pr貌gram tiamhaidh, dr霉idhteach a dh' innseas mar a ghluais c霉ram dhaoine bho a bhith ann an ospadalan s貌nraichte dhan choimhearsnachd. Gu mu fhichead no trithead bliadhna air ais, bha ospadalan m貌ra son daoine le tinneas inntinn, no daoine a bha ciorramach nan inntinn, st猫idhichte air iomall bailtean m貌ra na h-Alba, far an robh m矛ltean de dhaoine a bha feumach air c霉ram air an cumail air falbh bho ch脿ch.
Ach thug d貌ighean smaoineachaidh 霉ra mu mar a bu ch貌ir dha c霉ram a bhith air a l脿imhseachadh, agus achd 霉r airson C霉ram anns a' Choimhearsnachd a chaidh tron ph脿rlamaid ann an 1990, atharrachadh m貌r air an d貌igh 's an robh na seirbheisean air am frithealadh. Chaidh daoine aig nach robh m貌ran smachd air am beatha roimhe am brosnachadh gus gluasad dhan
choimhearsnachd, agus gu bhith nam p脿irt den choimhearsnachd mar duine sam bith.
Sgeulachd a' ghluasaid mh貌r seo tro na sgeulachdan pearsanta aig cuid air an tug e buaidh, agus sealladh air mar a tha beachdan air an d貌igh as fhe脿rr airson c霉ram a thoirt dha daoine air atharrachadh.
Until twenty or thirty years ago, hospitals for people with mental health problems and learning difficulties were situated on the outskirts of towns and cities, where thousands were shut away from society.
However, changing thinking and attitudes about how people should be treated and cared for, and The NHS and Community Care Act of 1990, revolutionised the way in which services were delivered. People who had previously had little control over their lives were encouraged to move into and be part of the community like the rest of us. This programme tells the story of this transition through the personal experiences of people affected and involved and reveals how attitudes and ideas about how best to care for people have changed.
