The Ontario Forensic Mental Health System: A Population-based Review: Le syst ème ontarien de services psychiatriques médico-légaux: Une étude dans la population

CONCLUSION: The Canadian forensic psychiatry system is comprised of a unique subset of justice-involved individuals. This study provides a detailed examination of accused who are subject to the jurisdiction of the ORB and provides key insight into risk factors associated with offending behaviour in this population. The results of this study will provide a framework for future studies examining the association between mental disorder and violence and the treatment trajectories for those in the forensic psychiatry system.PMID:34109832 | DOI:10.1177/07067437211023103
