Departmental personnel manual, 1964.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/81793041

Pursuant to MGLA c 19, the Dept. of Mental Health fulfills its responsibilities toward mentally ill persons in Massachusetts through a comprehensive program of services and facilities. (It exercised a similar function for the mentally retarded until 1986, when a separate Dept. of Mental Retardation was established). In administering such services the department is responsible for personnel policies in mental health and mental retardation facilities under its jurisdiction. To standardize personnel procedures and practices for these facilities, the department prepared a department-wide personnel manual.
