Episode 45 covers the history of the new hospital buildings: how they were used during WWII and how they evolved to eventually house 4,991 patients. Find out why the Navy was using tree bark from the hospital grounds, learn why visitors are not allowed into state hospitals today, and discover how then-Governor Ronald Reagan kickstarted deinstitutionalization.
Much of the information in this episode is drawn from the Napa County Historical Society website and the Images of America book Napa State Hospital by Patricia Prestinary. All other sources are listed in the episode transcript.
