London's Hospital for the Mad. We all know the word 'bedlam' as a term of madness and confusion, but few of us really know the story of how this term was coined, or the real history of the notorious Bethlem Hospital in London. The oldest mental health institution in the world, Bethlem Hospital is famous to many only as Bedlam, a chaotic mad-house which brutalised its patients. In fact, for much of its history such abuse was a rarity, the exception being between 1700 and 1855 when the hospital, under the dynastic control of the Monro family, implemented a brutal medical programme that soon gave Bedlam an unsavoury reputation.
