Will psychotherapy survive to be a vital part of inpatient
treatment in the future& #63; Will inpatient units themselves
survive, or will they be replaced by partial hospital programs
complemented by supervised housing arrangements& #63; Will
average length of inpatient stay continue to decrease, or has it
reached its lowest possible level& #63;
"Less Time to Do More: Psychotherapy on the Short-Term Inpatient
Unit" examines the implications of shorter stays for the practice
of inpatient psychotherapy. The contributors describe techniques
that inpatient psychotherapists can use to remain therapeutically
effective despite increased pressure from managed care companies
and the threat of malpractice suits. This book utilizes over 20
years of research on techniques and strategies to bring the reader
the most up-to-date methods as well as the traditional models of
inpatient treatment.
& ldquo;How can inpatient psychotherapists respond to the
realities of modern hospital practice& #63; Each of these
chapters describes one facet of how the therapist can adapt his or
her goals and techniques to treat seriously ill patients
effectively in the limited time available.& rdquo;& mdash;
