Institute "Jakes"--an experiment which ceased to exist

Z Radovanovic et al. Scand J Soc Med. 1994 Dec.

Abstract

Institute "Jakes", which sheltered psychiatric patients, was apparently the most unorthodox part of the health care delivery system in the former Yugoslavia. Bosnian war led to severe destruction of the Institute and to death of many of its patients. The "Jakes" experience deserves attention and description.
