In the U.S., when a patient is in need of intensive psychiatric
care, the first step is hospitalization. However, elsewhere in the
world, psychiatric home treatment is proposed as an alternative.
Model programs in Canada and the United Kingdom are publicly
administered by community health agencies or teaching hospitals.
"Psychiatric Home Treatment" provides a review of the literature on
home care and describes working programs around the world. This
timely volume reviews treatment plans for different disorders with
case illustrations, explains the administration of a PHC program
and offers guidelines to case workers. It will be of interest to
mental health professionals and policy makers working on the issue
of patient hospitalization.
