    This week's episode examines the history of Goodna Mental Hospital, which also went by Brisbane Mental Hospital, Brisbane Special Hospital, and Wolston Park Mental Hospital during the years between 1937 and its closure in 2001. Find out what controversial treatments were used there and why the treatments took an almost 10 year hiatus. Learn what led to the deinstitutionalization movement in Queensland.

    My primary source is a page on the history of Wolston Park by the Queensland Department of Health. All of my sources will be listed at the end of the episode transcript.
