The Children's Day Hospital, or more properly, the Psychiatric Day Hospital for Children and their Families at 35 Black Prince Road, Vauxhall, London was a South London out-patient resource under the aegis of St Thomas' Hospital and the NHS between 1965 and 1990 when it closed. Coincidentally, its existence was co-terminous with that of the Inner London Education Authority, with whose 'Special Schools' service, based in nearby County Hall, there was occasional co-operation. The Day Hospital's distinction was to provide evidence-based treatment added to the Waldorf School system, combined with the prescription of newly developed antidepressant medication to children.[1]
