The history of the establishment of RSJ Dr. Radjiman Wediodiningrat Lawang
Lawang Mental Hospital was officially opened on June 23, 1902. Work on establishing this hospital began in 1884 based on the Decree of the Kingdom of the Netherlands dated December 20, 1865 No.100. Before Lawang Mental Hospital was opened, mental patient care was handed over to the Military Health Service (Militaire Gezondheids Dienst).

In order to facilitate distribution of patients to the community, Hulshoff Pol submitted a plan to expand the Mental Hospital to the Van Onderwijs en Eeredienst Department. Where in 1909 the number of patients reached 1,171 and efforts to expand the hospital to accommodate patients were urgent. At that time hundreds of mental patients were still sent to several prisons before being sent to mental hospitals. In the period 1905 - 1906, it was recorded that one of the first Indonesian doctors to work at the Lawang Mental Hospital was Dr. KRT. Radjiman Wediodiningrat, who together with Dr. Soetomo launched the first nation's movement, namely the Boedi Oetomo. At that time Dr. KRT. Radjiman Wediodiningrat has developed an alternative therapeutic approach with the "Rassen Psychologie" approach.

The expansion business was licensed, with the construction of anex. Lawang Mental Hospital in Suko village, located approximately 1 km to the east on the slopes of the foot of the Bromo (Tengger) mountains.

Between 1929-1935 the two RSJs, Lawang Mental Hospital and Suko-anex Hospital were handled by 7 doctors and a female professor, with a bed capacity of 1,200 each. At that time RSJ.Dr. Radjiman Wediodiningrat Lawang was developed into a brain research center. In 1940 the number of patients reached 3,400 and in 1941 it increased to 4,200 because they had to accommodate displaced patients from the colony in East Java. The pursuit of hospital and nursing home facilities (Doorganghuizen) is an important development in the world of psychiatry. To improve patient care services at the Lawang Mental Hospital, at that time occupational therapy activities and various preparations for entertainment businesses began to be held.

In an effort to facilitate the distribution of mental patients to the community, since 1926 the Lawang Mental Hospital has brought back patients who have calmed down to their villages. This was followed by the Doorganghuizen concept proposed by Travaglino.

With the availability of the facilities mentioned above, the needs of patients and the community for services and access to information can be faster and more efficient. Besides the improvement in physical facilities, it was also followed by an increase in the quality of human resources through continuing education programs and the holding of various trainings, including conducting research on mental health services. In its development, health services not only handle mental disorders, but also serve simple general cases, drug cases, psychological examinations, dental, laboratory, radiology, and others.
