Forensic psychiatric services provide care and treatment for mentally disordered offenders (MDOs) in secure in-patient facilities as well as in the community. These services are high-cost/low-volume services; they pose significant restrictions on patients and hence raise considerable ethical challenges. There is no agreed-upon standard for length of stay (LoS) in secure settings and patients’ detainment periods vary considerably across countries and even within the same jurisdiction. Thus far, little research has been conducted to identify factors associated with length of stay; consequently, it remains unclear how services should be configured to meet the needs of this patient group. This volume fills some of those gaps. Furthermore, it presents new research on factors associated with length ofstay, both patient-related and organisational. Various approaches to the provision of care for long-term patients in different countries are explored, including a few best practise examples in this speci | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Mentally Disorders; In-Patient Facilities; Length of Stay (LoS); Quality-Of-Life; Human Rights; Penrose H | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-12594-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-12596-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-12594-3 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
