Felix Kaczanowski was born on 27 May 1904 After graduating from the Faculty of Medicine, Jagiellonian University began work in Tworki. He was a doctor Pruszków Battalion Army. After the Warsaw Uprising, organized the escape from the transit camp Dulag 121st
He was best known experts in the court psychiatrist lalach 1946 to 1947. He taught forensic psychiatry, not only doctors, but also the staff of the department of justice. He had a very personal approach to the hospital, patients and staff. Endowed with great courage and social conscience are often attacked down the administrative and political directives of the time. In total, worked at the hospital 44 years, including 32 as director. Anna
Śliwicka acting for many years the librarian in a hospital director recalls warmly Kaczanowski:
"In another life, I have not seen such a man, maybe Mark was a Katoński you know, I am in my life like it is not anyone I've met ... For me it was very nice, very human .... My husband was an internist, and then a consultant in Tworki., A consultant was doing badly because I began to drink. Soon he befriended an associate professor of Dobrzanski, who did not drink and was often at our house. Dobrzanski When he learned that I write to work with psychiatry dragged me to the library. Then I met the director. I had a feeling that taking me to work and knowing the situation my husband was not completely satisfied. Then everything changed ... "

dramatic exit ...

January 17, 1945. Pruszkow liberation day, the state Hospital for Mental Diseases in Tworki presented a picture typical of most facilities, through which passed the front.
hospital interiors were usually vandalized or simply worn out by years of occupation. Equipment was damaged, incomplete, and exported by the occupier. The reconstruction. When you resume activity
hospital employed 238 employees, including seven physicians and 16 individuals of middle. To increase the staff began to organize courses in nursing. These measures brought results: In 1966, the hospital had already qualified nurses and 265 nurses. The proximity of Warsaw and the difficulties in the housing destroyed the capital meant that Tworki hosted for a time the military authorities of the Department of Health. In 1945 the hospital was established Department of Psychiatry, Medical University, and in 1951 the Institute Psychoneurologiczny. In 1945, the hospital hosted the first post-war congress of Medicine - The General Assembly of the Association of Polish Psychiatrists. It was the most dramatic exit in the history of the company. After the war, in which Silent murdered thousands of mentally ill, hospitals were destroyed, and staff psychiatrists much melted. Gathered in the hall just 62 people. It was known then, that 14 members of the Association died, 35 were murdered, but by 243 there was no news. At the meeting, among others. read the will of the Director Witold Łuniewskiego that one-fifth of the assets earmarked for scholarships for psychiatrists. Unfortunately, the property ceased to exist during the war.

Occupational Therapy ...

In the early postwar years continued healing method: used for shock kardiozolowe, insulin, electrical and malaria vaccine. Locating the Academy of Psychiatry and the Institute Psychoneurological AM in Tworek had to have a serious impact on the selection and development of methods of treatment in the hospital. Medical staff were kept informed of the opening up of the therapeutic possibilities of scientific progress. Participated in research and publish their own reports. With the development of the hospital, call the appropriate staff, increased demand for specialized activities. Formed new units and studios bought the necessary medical equipment.
In 1950 a branch was Neurology of the X-ray laboratory. In 1951, he has already done an EEG apparatus or the Department of the Institute. Own 16-channel EEG apparatus Tworki bought in 1956 for the Poznań Trade Fair for the enormous sum of 260 thousand. respectively. In 1957 he bought the first camera to the ECG. Odwykowy Branch was established in 1958, promoter of the idea of \u200b\u200babstinence, and drug treatment being Fiutowski Dr. George, who took ordynaturę that branch. In 1959, isolated units for the mentally ill with tuberculosis, while the late sixties and seventies, organized a branch of psychosomatic. One area where Tworki achieved significant level of judicial review was psychiatry. Director personally participated in the evaluation and give up his interest in the younger doctors. Kaczanowski took part in many famous Polish post-war process. Among other things, in the fifties in issues, and Prof. George Paramonow. Tarwida. In the sixties and Joanna Szmigierówny Karwat priest, in the seventies Gajdzik Joseph, brother of Rzepin Zakrzewski, Charles Swierczewski and many others. In the post-war psychiatry, irrespective of the treatment of shock or later, pharmacotherapy, appreciated the importance of purposeful activity for the patient's well-being. Already in the first years after the war in Tworki arise therapy workshops (WTZ), aimed at creating job opportunities for patients, and the occasion for the hospital to obtain necessities, (at least a bakery, a sewing workshop, workshops: tailor, shoemaker, stitching or weaving workshops and lace).

funds from England ...

The hospital received a land reform Pęcice assets of the area. 230 ha. The palace was designed in Pecice the hospital ward, began the cultivation of land, livestock, management of fish ponds. In 1950 the school was established fruit trees and ornamental plants. In the following Between hospital enriched further by holding: the Zarybiu near Horseshoe Forest (in 1954), in Komorowo and Popówku (1955), in Serokach and Paprotnia (1957). The resulting lam hospital wards for patients, and conducted household agricultural production and livestock to the needs of patients and staff. Hospitals in nearly 100% of the meat had been supplied with their own culture and partly from his flour mill in Komorowo. In the fifties, began to modernize municipal facilities, new wells drilled, set out the used water supply, electrical installations, restored sewage treatment plants, and placed a transformer station. Existing furnaces have been replaced by central heating.
During 1958 - 1966 formed adjacent to the hospital three blocks of flats for 93 families (on the street courts) which allowed the transfer of employees already living in the halls of hospital, and thereby increase places for patients. The private foundation Mrs. Sue E. Ryder, acting on behalf of an Englishwoman helping children - victims of war, was in Tworki pavilion for mentally handicapped children. It was a bungalow in the English colonial style with full equipment transferred after l958 Ms. Ryder was not confined to the single grants, but by dawn years assisted the department in kind gifts. Because the hospital is not dealt with in the way of therapy for children, and the Department of Psychiatry, Medical University moved in 1965 to Warsaw, the children also moved. The pavilion was used for other purposes, which had not been notified of the founder. This case ended in a not very pleasant, because Ms. Ryder - learned of the delay of several years to change the destination of the pavilion - was threatened with legal consequences, and naturally failed to further help ...

Years do their job ... 1. March 1976 Director Felix Kaczanowski has been moved into retirement and appointed to the psychiatry specialist (apparently it was a job created for him ...). Director she reached old age, he had trouble overcoming the stairs. Some say that it has become a mess ...

It was not suicide!

His death still arouses controversy among former employees of the hospital. Rumor about the alleged suicide of the director Felix Kaczanowski after years dispels Anna Śliwicka, which accurately remembers the day: "The Director's office was opposite the mine. That day I went to the theater. He came to me at four in the wort to brew. Calculate yourself how much it is enough sachets. He visited me often, very loved. Director of the evening drinking alcohol with a later chairman of the trade unions. Anyway, not the first time since his transfer to the new position, he'd get back to the office a little bit of rauszu. I saw two bottles, I do not remember whether it was pure, or some other alcohol, in any event, this second nothing happened. They drank in the office of the Director. Comrade director came out, how I learned about some human time. I was about ten. About half past eleven I heard a bang. I had no feeling ...
next day at eight o'clock in the morning came to my staff. First we saw the ladies Kaczanowski (wife of the director's daughter), which peered through the keyhole to his office. Then I ran Kaczanowski ladies and we started to look at it. I did not notice, because the doors were closed. It was not until my employee noticed something disturbing. Director of lying ... Zbiegliśmy the doctors. "

Shortly after the death of his wife, director committed suicide. She left a letter in which she wrote that her coffin to carry the Directors. Why? - Maybe ... better to leave this speculation. In one version had been told him to believe that it is they who have contributed to the death of her husband ...

with trivia on the life of Felix Kaczanowski need to add that there are views that allow users to MBP as an associate hospital to isolate political opponents. How was it - that, unfortunately, we do not know, one thing is certain, the director Kaczanowski was associated with Zenon Kliszką family, whose wife Anna was the sister of the director.

New Director

to the position of new chief executive was appointed in 1976 by Edward Krzeminski, a psychiatrist, a man of brilliant and representative. Deputy director for health care was Wojciech Moczulski. Change in directorate after more than 30 years of hospital management by Felix Kaczanowski, raised in an environment tworkowskim anxiety. Some doctors went away from work, unable to come to terms with the changes. Created new sections. Department was established, inter alia, alcohol treatment centers led by Dr. Christine MD Łęczycka. The newly formed department has developed treatments have been tested. Odwykowy Branch since 1976 has been converted into co-educational with 50 beds for men and 10 for women and divided into two subunits: a diagnostic and rehabilitation. Clinic is attached to addicts seeking department existing in the hospital since 1970, and organized club abstainers, bringing together former patients and their families. The hospital released the club premises and all activities financed from the fund antyalkoholowego. One of the most attractive events has become a two-week rest and rehabilitation STAY, held every year in the village holiday. The period of the seventies and eighties is characterized by stagnation of investment in the health sector, reflected in the housing stock in the hospital tworkowskim. In addition to overhaul the hospital is not enriched by new buildings. Failed to realize the plan of construction of the hotel employees. In the realm of promises and plans to join other Tworek to the municipal heating network. All the time functioned as a farm, declined substantially to 12 hectares in the complex tworkowskim and 51 ha in Pecice.
In 1978, the Hospital lost ponds for SGGW AR. School was the final liquidation of fruit trees and ornamental plants. The resulting surface area of \u200b\u200b5 hectares planted with apple and 2 acres of walnuts, which wymarzły during the harsh winter 1986/1987.

Launched by the director of organizational change Kaczanowski gave windfalls results. The number of patients staying in hospital began to decline steadily. It happened at the same time, because Tworki lost one after the other branch offices. Elimination of succession have been divisions in Serokach, Komorów, Pecice and end in January 1978 in Paprotnia. Since 1977 began reducing the number of beds in the hospital, gradually rising to 1,060 in 1982

social unrest of the late seventies and early eighties were echoed in the community Tworkowski. Emerged in different lines of ideological division. During the lively activities of Solidarity in the hospital were two unions. Postulates were thrown into a special box, meetings and discussions, but there were no strikes. From different sides came the news of the strife between workers and management. Calm in Tworki could be illusory, because the 9th June 1981 there were a referendum. Workers in the secret ballot had to face the question: "Would you like to continue to exercise the functions of the Director Team Edward Krzeminski - życzono themselves, so have ...
