Community mental health approaches for avoidance of patient placement in closed psychiatric facilities-a  positioning

CONCLUSION: The structural and sociolegal deficits addressed require a reform of the institutional framework and a redirection of all actors involved, including the clinics. Alternative approaches to the care of people with severe mental disorders are outlined. These include the Wedding model, binding community psychiatric structures, the basic functional model and assistance services under the German Social Code IX following the revision of the Federal Participation Act.PMID:34046725 | DOI:10.1007/s00115-021-01136-7
