Abstract:
SummaryMental health services in the state of Victoria, Australia, have undergone enormous change over the past 15 years, with the closure of all stand-alone psychiatric hospitals and a shift of resources and services into the community. Although successful overall, various areas cause concern, including pressure on acute beds, a paucity of alternative residential options, and suboptimal integration of government and non-government agencies concerned with the care of people with mental illnesses. Certain groups, notably those with complex symptom sets such as substance use and mental illness, intellectual disability and forensic problems, remain poorly catered for by the system. Finally, community stigma and lack of work inclusion for mentally ill individuals are ongoing challenges.

Abstract:
Aims and MethodThis study describes residents in seven care homes, reviews their usage of mental health services and evaluates cost implications of psychiatric health care provision.ResultsThe patients are predominantly male with multiple diagnoses who are receiving psychiatric health care, but in general lack structured rehabilitation services. Forty-seven per cent of the residents moved into the trust catchment area in order to occupy the placement.The cost associated with the provision of differing models of out-patients care varies considerably.Clinical ImplicationsThese vulnerable residents are costing the mental health service relatively little, although the total cost to society is higher.This study points to the necessity of multiagency planning for 'new long-stay' patients.

Abstract:
The rehabilitation service for West Gloucestershire utilises a range of facilities to accommodate the long-term severely mentally ill. Group homes, supported lodgings, long-stay rehabilitation hostels and an inpatient slow stream rehabilitation ward provide increasing degrees of support according to levels of dependency. The findings of this study support the use of the Clifton Assessment Procedures for the Elderly Behaviour Rating Scale (CAPE BRS) as an aid to assessment of appropriate placement for the long-term severely mentally ill of all age groups in the community, both at the time of placement and to monitor ongoing need.

SummaryThe future and present day state of psychosocial and sociobiological rehabilitation depends on scientific research, the differing rates of development within the autonomous communities, and the “administrative reform”. In the rehabilitation of the chronic mentally ill, these three factors complement existing psycho and sociobiological therapy and cognitive methodology training.

Abstract:
Objective: The aim of the present study was to describe characteristics and post-release outcomes of Victorian homicide offenders under the Crimes (Mental Impairment and Unfitness to be Tried) Act 1997 (and/or its forerunner legislation) released from forensic inpatient psychiatric care since the development of specialist forensic services. Method: A legal database identified subjects meeting inclusion criteria: hospitalized in forensic psychiatric care due to finding of mental impairment or unfitness to stand trial for homicide in Victoria; released into the community; and released between 1 January 1991 and 30 April 2002. Using clinical records, demographics, index offence, progress in hospital, diagnosis, psychosocial and criminological data were obtained. Outcomes (offending or readmission into secure care) were obtained from the clinical records. Results: Of the 25 subjects, 19 (76%) were male. Primary diagnoses on admission to forensic hospital care were schizophrenia, n = 16 (64%); other psychotic disorder, n = 5 (20%); depression, n = 3 (12%); and personality disorder, n = 1 (4%). Mean time in custodial supervision was 11 years and 2 months, less for those whose offence occurred after the development of forensic rehabilitation services. In the first 3 years after release, there was a single episode of criminal recidivism, representing a recidivism rate of 1 in 25 (4%) over 3 years. Twelve subjects (48%) were readmitted at some point in the 3 year follow up. Conclusion: There was a very low rate of recidivism after discharge, but readmissions to hospital were common. Lengths of custodial care were reduced after the introduction of forensic rehabilitation facilities. Recidivism is low when there are well-designed and implemented forensic community treatment programmes, consistent with other data suggesting a reciprocal relationship between safe community care and a low threshold for readmission to hospital, lessening re-offending at times of crisis. Further research should be directed at timing of release decisions, based on reducing identified risk factors to acceptable levels.

Abstract:
Object:The object of the research is the determination of the level of social dysfunction with the patients suffering from mental disorders.Materials and methods:There have been examined 327 out-of-clinic (the under-test group) and 211in-clinic (the comparison group) patients.The structured interview and the social expert technique, statistic. The determination of the limits of the vital functions was performed with the help of the psychiatric scale of the limitation of the vital functions.Prior to the rehabilitation measures, the performance of the social roles with the 6.1% of the patients of the under-test group has revealed “no dysfunction”, and following the rehabilitation - with the 24.5% of the ill. The comparison's group indices are 6.5% and 11.3% respectively. The minimal dysfunction has been determined with 7.5% and 22.2% respectively of the under-test group and 8.1% and 12,8% ( all ð< 0,05) of the comparison one. The redistribution of the patients into the minimal/no dysfunction subgroup was largely due to the patients with evident, serious and very serious dysfunction. The decrease of the dysfunction of the social roles of all the patients of the under-test group means that the true restoration of the patients’ functioning in the different domains of the society is possible only if there are developed rehabilitation measures targeting at the planning stage the so-called “troubled” social roles.Results:The true restoration of the patients’ social functioning is possible only if the rehabilitation measures target the “troubled” social roles.

Abstract:
The major policies and practices with regard to the civil and criminal commitment of the mentally ill in the Scandinavian countries during the 1970s and 1980s are described and discussed. Deinstitutionalization, community work, and outpatient treatment within geographically defined sectors have been introduced in all the Nordic countries. At the same time, criminally committed mental patients constitute an increasing proportion of the involuntarily hospitalized population. The special defense of insanity and tests such as McNaughtan are not used in the Scandinavian countries. The handling and disposition of severely mentally ill criminal defendants is closer to the notions of guilty but mentally ill in some U.S. jurisdictions, although in Scandinavia such persons are hospitalized and do not receive penal sentences. Even though forensic psychiatry has come under much criticism, there is still a need for psychiatric evaluations for courts and there is still a need for the provision of mental health treatment, rehabilitation, and follow-up for mentally disordered offenders.

The purpose of this paper is to describe an Adult Community Treatment (ACT) program in Dandenong, Victoria, and its effect upon admission rates and time in hospital for 50 of the serviceapos;s most disturbed patients. The implementation of the program was associated with a reduction in the annual re-admission rate from 38% (1989–90) to 21% (1990–91); the total length of hospital stay was also significantly reduced. The results support the value of community support programs in the management of the seriously mentally ill.

Abstract:
The shortage of skilled and experienced health workers, lack of facilities, limited psychiatric care and inaccessible mental health care services in the uMsunduzi Municipality in Northern KwaZulu-Natal are causes of concern. With limited access to health services and resources, family members have no choice, but to take care of mentally ill relatives. These underlying problems have warranted the need to explore the experiences of family members living with mentally ill relatives. A qualitative, exploratory, descriptive design was used to collect data by in-depth one-on-one interviews and findings were analyzed using Tesch&rsquo;s method of data analysis. This study showed that the uMsunduzi Municipality needed assistance with resources to support family members living with their mentally ill relatives and family members&rsquo; lack of knowledge and experience emerged as a major factor that influenced the care, treatment and rehabilitation of their mentally ill relatives. Compounded by inadequate mental health facilities and infrastructure as well as&nbsp; the implications of the non-implementation of the acts, policies, processes and procedures in the uMsunduzi Municipality; this study recommends the need to enhance community education of all health professionals, providing relevant training in mental illness management. A shared decision-making process is vital, so that a collaborative partnership between family members and health professionals across KZN is established. This will in turn enhance the lived experiences of family members and mentally ill patients.

Abstract:
Coaching for exhaustion and feelings of overload Introduction: Symptoms of exhaustion can be part of a mental disorder, but can also arise in mentally healthy people as a reaction to work overload. Work-related coaching sessions were undertaken with employees in various sectors, and the coaching topics and processes for mentally healthy and ill participants were compared. Methods: A total of 110 coaching courses of three sessions were conducted by a behaviour therapist experienced in rehabilitation and social medicine. 64 participants reported exhaustion without pre-existing or accompanying mental disorders, while 46 participants had lifelong mental disorders. Coaching topics were categorized using a taxonomy of work-related stressors, and two case studies of prototypical coaching processes for mentally healthy and ill participants are qualitatively contrasted. Results: Mentally healthy participants most frequently desired help with social interaction problems (31 %), work overload (25 %), and role stress (13 %). Mentally ill participants reported problems with social interaction (39 %), work overload (13 %), careers (13 %), and working conditions (13%). In the coaching processes, healthy participants often focused on coping with workload by improving their own work structuring, whereas participants with mental disorders in many cases needed treatment coordination. Conclusions: Work-related coaching can be used as an intervention for exhaustion and feelings of overload, but requires different topics and techniques for mentally healthy and mentally ill participants. Expertise in mental disorders and different types of work-related exhaustion is needed to ensure adequacy of diagnosis, coaching aims and content.

Abstract:
A systematic policy for treatment and management of chronic psychiatric patients in South Korea was begun with the passage of the Mental Health Act in 1995. The mentally ill patients who were previously separated from the society now have opportunities to live in local communities under medication with the help of rehabilitation facilities. This study aims to understand how mentally ill patients deal with their new medical environment. An autobiographic narrative analysis is methodically applied in order to link the social and the individual levels. Autobiographic narratives of illness show how the patient’s self-identity is formed and further developed according to the chronic conditions of his illness and the continual learning from experiences. In regard to the construction of selfidentity, two aspects should be taken into consideration: First, medication is absolutely necessary before patients can leave the hospital and participate in rehabilitation programs. Secondly, social integration is usually evaluated by the return of the patient into a normal biographical stage. It turns out that medication deprives the patients of control over their emotions, their bodies. Furthermore, their social environments – including family, friends and the labor market – work against them. Under these circumstances, mentally ill patients are liable to adhere to their own interpretation of mental illness, and what they experience is far different from the expectations of experts in the field. The new mental health environment also contributes to the formation of patient communities. As a result, chronic psychiatric patients are able to build their own subculture and to see themselves through their own eyes. Further studies are needed to explore whether and to what extent the ongoing improvement of social conditions for mentally ill patients has an impact on autobiographic narratives and self-identity construction.

Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to examine the attitudes towards people with mental illness in the city of Bangalore. The sample consisted of 400 people living in different parts of the city. They were assessed on socio-demographic data sheet, Orientation to Mental Illness Scale, Exposure, Knowledge and Social Distance Scale and Attitudes towards Mental Illness Scale. The Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, Student t-test, ANOVA, ANCOVA, Pearson’s correlation and Step-wise Multiple Regression Analysis. The study reveals that the common man had neutral orientation to mental illness and is moderate in their attitudes to mental illness. However, many were not informed regarding legal provisions available for the mentally ill and rehabilitation services existing in the community. Although the public was fairly low on social distance, this did not apply to intimate relationships such as sharing a room or marriage. Socio-demographic factors, especially like that of education, had an impact on the attitudes of many to mental illness, with the higher educated being better aware and more positive towards the mentally ill. The study brings out the need for programmes to raise the awareness among the ordinary citizen on various aspects of mental illness including existing legal provisions for the mentally ill in the community and rehabilitation services.

TheKerala State in India has witnessed the efforts from thefaith based organizations and religiously oriented familiesin the care and rehabilitation of the homeless mentally ill.This paper explores the processes used by these facilitiesfor the care and rehabilitation of homeless mentally ill.Data were collected from the chief functionary ofrehabilitation facilities, persons with mental illnessresiding in the rehabilitation centers, and volunteer careproviders using interview schedules for the study ofrehabilitation processes and profile of chief functionaryand care providers. Otehre tools were, WHO QoL tomeasure the quality of life and level of functioning scaleand Global Assessment of Functioning Scale formeasuring the functioning. The care providers’orientation to mental illness was assessed usingOrientation to Mental Illness Scale (Prabhu, 1983). 65% ofthe centers displayed above average patient care serviceswhereas 25% had poor overall quality of patient careservices. The residents showed moderate level of qualityof life in the area of physical health, psychological health,social relationships and high level of quality of life in the domain of environment.

Abstract:
The study described here examined three issues: (a) therapists' perceptions of the relative value of certain daily living skills to function in chronically mentally ill persons, (b) the potential for clustering skills into defined groups, and (c) the relationship of therapists' perceptions of the relative value of these skills to the therapists' characteristics. An understanding of therapists' perceptions of the importance of certain skills to a clinical population assists in decision making regarding evaluation and treatment and can also assist in the process of establishing content validity for assessment instruments. The clustering of skills may suggest that different levels or categories of skills exist that may affect treatment. Recognition of the variables that influence the perceived value of skills to a clinical population aids in the understanding of the clinical reasoning process, especially if the terminology in a specific practice area varies or is not well defined. The results of this pilot study show that daily living skills for chronically mentally ill persons can be identified and clustered into groups representing different levels of function. The therapists' characteristics examined here did not seem to influence the perceived value of these skills.

Abstract:
SummarySince the beginning of the 1980s the five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden have gone through a process of decentralization. This process has taken place at a different pace and according to slightly varying decentralization models, but in all five of the countries the reduction in capacity of psychiatric hospitals has leveled out, whereas the establishing of decentralized treatment functions are not yet sufficiently developed. Furthermore, all five countries focus on rehabilitation of the most severe mentally ill. Examples of different models from the Nordic countries are mentioned.
