Scope and Content Note

This series documents receipts and disbursements of cash, billing and payments made for facilities maintenance, documentation of funds encumbered and appropriated, and accounting for cash belonging to patients. (The title for the undated cash volume is "RSS Colony Patients Ledger.") The records detail the management of patients' funds, expenditures for patient and facilities maintenance, and handling of monies in general.

Patient cash books contain patient surnames, dates, and amounts of money either paid to them, or being held for them by staff. These specific books contain personally-identifying information.
