Alternatives to
Hospitalization
|
|
| • |
In a properly
designed and functioning community mental health
|
|
|
system community
residential treatment facilities should sere the
|
|
|
vast majority of
disturbed and disturbing individuals in need of
|
|
|
intensive
interpersonal care who cannot be adequately treated by in-
|
|
home crises
intervention. Use of these small home-like facilities in
|
|
|
conjunction with
24-hour mobile crises intervention will dramatically
|
|
|
reduce the need
for psychiatric beds in hospitals.
