Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study seeks to examine New York State's use of co-optation as a strategy for achieving its mental health policy goals. These policy goals included the closing of the State psychiatric hospitals, and attempts at helping those discharged to maintain themselves in the community while living successful, or normalized lives. A historical research methodology is employed. The sources of the data were documents from organizations, groups and individuals as well as verbal testimony from individuals who had an interest in the outcomes of mental health policy. The study additionally utilizes a method of content analysis examining the audio taped testimony of key leaders, past and present in the field of mental health.;The research questions were: Why has New York State's key mental health policy goals of closing the psychiatric hospitals, as well as helping patients maintain themselves in and normalize in the community, been only partially achieved? What policy strategy, if implemented, could have been more effective in the downsizing of psychiatric hospitals as well maintaining and normalizing patients in the community? New York State has been engaged in the process of lowering the number of in-patients in the psychiatric hospitals and assisting these people to live in the community since 1955. The researcher examines New York State's use of co-optation to achieve its policy goals. An attempt was made to demonstrate that despite the support, the policy of deinstitutionalization received, from professionals, organizations and politicians, at each step of the deinstitutionalization process, the policy could not be implemented until key stakeholders in the outcomes of New York State mental health policy were co-opted. The researcher attempted to show from testimony that conflicting parochial interest of the key stakeholder groups has slowed down the implementation of the policy of deinstitutionalization and that the state with its own interests has chosen to accept implementation of deinstitutionalization at that pace.

This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Vital for all working in the mental health field . . . . Fascinating reading for anyone." —Choice E. Fuller Torrey, the author of the definitive guides to schizophrenia and manic depression, chronicles a disastrous swing in the balance of civil rights that has resulted in numerous violent episodes and left a vulnerable population of mentally ill people homeless and victimized. Interweaving in-depth accounts of landmark cases in California, Wisconsin, and North Carolina with a history of legislation and changes in the mental health care system, Torrey gives shape to the magnitude of our failure and outlines what needs to be done to reverse this ongoing—and accelerating—disaster. A new epilogue on the 2011 shooting in Tucson, Arizona, brings this tragic story up to date.

Download or read book Deinstitutionalization: Promise and Problems written by Richard H. Lamb and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 2001-07-25 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both the scope and effects of deinstitutionalization have been dramatic. This volume examines both positive and negative effects of this mass movement of persons with severe mental illness out of the state hospitals and into the community. The chapters address the following issues: the use of community alternatives to state hospitalization; the very large numbers of persons with severe mental illness who have found their way into the criminal justice system, why this has happened, and what to do about it; the community treatment of mentally ill offenders; how to prevent inappropriate entry of mentally ill persons into the criminal justice system; the value of mental health consultation in courtroom settings; the therapeutic use of mental health conservatorship; and finally, psychiatric rehabilitation. Although deinstitutionalization for the most part can result in a much richer life experience in the community, much more needs to be done to make that occur. This is the 90th issue of the Jossey-Bass series New Directions for Mental Health Services.

Download or read book My Brother Ron written by Clayton E. Cramer and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-06-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America started a grand experiment in the 1960s: deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. The consequences were very destructive: homelessness; a degradation of urban life; increases in violent crime rates; increasing death rates for the mentally ill. My Brother Ron tells the story of deinstitutionalization from two points of view: what happened to the author's older brother, part of the first generation of those who became mentally ill after deinstitutionalization, and a detailed history of how and why America went down this path. My Brother Ron examines the multiple strands that came together to create the perfect storm that was deinstitutionalization: a well-meaning concern about the poor conditions of many state mental hospitals; a giddy optimism by the psychiatric profession in the ability of new drugs to cure the mentally ill; a rigid ideological approach to due process that ignored that the beneficiaries would end up starving to death or dying of exposure.
