Abstract:
Records of Pine View Health Care Center, a Marinette County mental health institution located near the city of Peshtigo. Built in 1906, the institution was first known as the Marinette County Asylum for the Chronic Insane. In 1941 the county home and the asylum merged and was renamed the Marinette County Hospital. In 1974 the psychiatric patients were relocated and the institution became the Pine View Health Care Center. The bulk of this series consists of Insane Asylum and County Hospital records (1906-1973, plus a listing of Poor House residents (1915-1941), and a list of admissions and discharges from the Pine View Health Care Center (1974-1993). The records document patient management such as admission and discharge and for patients admitted before 1942 also provides information on individuals such as physical condition and care, treatment received, personal history and family history. Also included in this series are Pine View Auxiliary Press Books (1965-[1984]) containing programs, newspaper clippings, and photographs of resident, staff, and community activities.
