On October 1st, 1960, a Childpsychiatric Clinic was founded and started to function by Dr. Maria Paleologo, her own private initiative. In the beginning it was called “School under childpsychiatric supervision”. Since September 1961 this foundation was transported to Chalandri (Athens) in a new building, just built for the purpose of a Childpsychiatric In-patient clinic and is called “Idryma Paleologo”. In 1962, it received the official recognition by law, right after childpsychiatry was recognized as a field by law. The children patients live in the clinic. They come either privately or as insured by the different health societies (social insurances, banks, government employees, etc.), as suffering from organic cerebral lesion, psychosis, psychoneurosis, psychopatic personalities, mental retardation, epilepsy, etc.
