  Title: Visits to St. Elizabeths
  Passage: Visits to St Elizabeths is a poem by Elizabeth Bishop modelled on the English nursery rhyme "This is the house that Jack built".  The poem refers to the confinement between 1945 and 1958 of Ezra Pound in St Elizabeths Hospital, Washington, D.C.  The nursery rhyme style gives an unusual effect to the strange or unsettling descriptions of a psychiatric hospital in the poem.  Likewise the poem treats Pound ambivalently describing him by turns as "honored", "brave", "cruel", and "wretched" among other things.
  Title: St. Elizabeths Hospital
  Passage: St. Elizabeths Hospital opened in 1855 as the first federally operated psychiatric hospital in the United States.  Housing over 8,000 patients at its peak in the 1950s, the hospital at one point had a fully functioning medical-surgical unit, a school of nursing, and accredited internships and psychiatric residencies.  Its campus was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1990.

  Title: St. Brendan's Hospital, Dublin
  Passage: St. Brendan's Hospital was a psychiatric facility located in the north Dublin suburb of Grangegorman.  It formed part of the HSE mental health services of Dublin North East.  Its catchment area is North West Dublin.  Since the official opening of the Richmond Lunatic Asylum in 1815 the Grangegorman site has continuously provided institutional facilities for the reception of the mentally ill until the present day.  The majority of the buildings historically associated with the hospital have been either demolished, fallen into disrepair or closed down.  There are currently five wards still in use in the facility which are all situated in old buildings and which provide eighty-four beds for psychiatric patients.  In the 2008 "Report" of the Inspector of Mental Health Services it was recommended that acute admissions to the secure units 3A and 3B should cease due to their unsuitability and all admissions should be redirected to the new purpose built unit at Connolly Hospital, Blanchardstown, Dublin.  This new acute psychiatric unit was finally opened in Connolly Hospital on 29 November 2010 allowing for the commencement of the transfer of patients from St. Brendan's to Blanchardstown.  This is part of a process that will see all the old units at St. Brendan's retired as psychiatric facilities.  However, this does not signal the end of the use of the site for the provision of mental health services.  As part of the Grangegorman Development Plan, where a large portion of the site of the old hospital will be used to develop a new Dublin Institute of Technology campus, new modern psychiatric facilities are to be provided for the HSE mental health services for the region.
