Abstract:
SynopsisThe role of primary care physicians in addressing the needs of chronically mentally ill patients is examined from three perspectives: (1) assessing community prevalence; (2) treating chronic medical problems in the context of other human service needs; and (3) treating specific types of chronic mental disorders. About 30% of primary care patients were found to have at least one Research Diagnostic Criteria mental disorder, five-sixths of which had a duration greater than 1 year. However, about 9% of patients had some impairment and 2% had severe impairment associated with a mental disorder. Although affective disorders have the highest overall rates, personality, psychotic, and anxiety disorders contribute the greatest proportion of severe disability.

Abstract:
This is an summative evaluation of the Homeless Chronically Mentally Ill program which examined the impact of case management and the outcome of the program on participant's substance abuse usage. Twenty-six participants' participated in the study. Participants were evaluated by two scales, the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire and the Reid-Gundlach Social Service Satisfaction Scale. Participants were sampled from those who were admitted into the HCMI program. The result of the study revealed that the majority (73.1) of those surveyed were satisfied overall with the program and 73.1 percent felt they could count on their social worker in times of trouble. This indicates that the HCMI program is meeting its goal to serve those veterans who are homeless and chronically mentally ill in order to help them reconnect into society.

Abstract:
My thesis will discuss the historical pattern of mistreatment and misunderstanding of the chronically mentally ill and the continued struggle the population faces. I believe that architecture holds some of the answers for these issues concerning the "ill" and that environmental factors do play a large part in the effective treatment of this population. It is my intention to design a facility where the chronically mentally ill can live and communicate freely without the stigma that has plagued them for so long. I will use the tools that social theory, philosophers such as Heidegger and the concepts of phenomenology have given me to explore the question: how can architecture help heal the chronically mentally ill.

Abstract:
This study was a survey of the chronically mentally ill cases served by the Public Fiduciary of Pima County, Arizona made to determine differences between and among these cases in numbers, finances, living arrangements, and the nature of their involvement with the Public Fiduciary according to age, sex, ethnic group, and mental disorder. Information was collected on 89 chronically mentally ill cases. Summaries and statistical analyses were made of the collected information. Schizophrenia in its various forms was found to be the dominant illness. Over half of the cases lived in unsupervised settings. Almost half of the cases received supplemental security income. Three-fourths of the cases received a total income of less than 350 dollars per month. The percentage of Hispanic people in the sample was higher than in the percentage of this group in the general population of Pima county. (Abstract shortened with permission of author.)

Abstract:
Little is known about the impact of deinstitutionalization on severely and chronically mentally ill older adults. The primary purpose of this study was to describe the adjustment process of 33 adults, aged 65 years and over, with severe and chronic psychiatric disorders, who were transferred from a psychiatric hospital to community housing facilities between 1995 and 1998. Data was collected at five periods in times, twice prior to discharge and three times following relocation. Global functioning, social behaviors, functioning in activities of daily living, cognitive status, perceived quality of life, housing conditions and rehospitalizations rates were assessed. Results showed that participants remained stable over time in general functioning, regardless of baseline functioning. Only five subjects were readmitted for short hospitalizations. Eighty-nine percent preferred to live in the community. Relocating these participants to a smaller supervised community facility did not lead to significant deterioration in their functioning and improved their quality of life.

Abstract:
The writing of this dissertation was an effort to address the issue of providing assistance to those persons who have been diagnosed with a chronic mental illness and were also experiencing homelessness. The author addresses several questions surrounding this issue. Ultimately, it was the desire of this writer to develop a Safe Haven program for this population that would create a residential service center. At this writing, there is not such a program in the State of Georgia. Among the many questions surrounding this issue that this writer addressed was: What is the history behind this problem? How did so many people in this targeted population become homeless? Is there a possible solution? What does the bible have to say regarding this issue and what if anything can the Faith community do to intervene and render assistance to this population? The questions were challenging. The intent of this dissertation was to provide some answers and design a program that could be replicated by any congregation that believed they were called to such a mission. The project consisted often men who were homeless and had a diagnosis of achronic mental illness. The period of time these men were observed was a minimum of six months. The staff consisted of a director of counseling who is a licensed master of social work degree holder who specialized in psychotherapy; there were case managers; peer specialist; residential support staff; night managers and a dietician.The program was designed to include volunteerism from the members of the sponsoring congregation. Funding was sought through the support of the sponsoring church as well as other churches and individuals. The bulk of the funding however was provided by government sources. The overall hypothesis was that if given adequate support and assistance, those persons targeted by this effort could become stabilized, non-symptomatic and able to live in permanent housing with the necessary supportive services

Full text
Abstract:
Discharge planning for hospitalized chronically mentally ill usually involves only verbal descriptions of community residential options. Psychosis often impairs ability to conceptualize abstract information, and quality of the choice process may be poor without describing options in concrete form, i.e., using written descriptions and photographs. A random sample (N= 90) of Dammasch State Hospital (Wilsonville, Oregon) patient population, comprising persons diagnosed schizophrenic, schizoaffective, organic mental disorder, and bipolar, were assigned to three treatment groups, asked to rank six community residential options suited for them when they were ready to leave the hospital. The three treatment groups were presented the same set of residential options, but the manner of presentation of options was manipulated: first group received verbal descriptions, second group received verbal descriptions with placards containing printed highlights of descriptions, third group received verbal descriptions, printed descriptions, and five photographs of each type of residential option. After ranking the options, respondents were asked how difficult it was to make their choices: very difficult, kind of difficult, not very difficult. Finally, an open-ended question was asked, "What guided you in making your choices?" Respondents' social workers were asked to rank same six residential options for each respondent. Chisquare and Kruskal-Wallis tests were computed for treatment groups-by-respondents' choices for first through sixth choice with no significance found. "Difficulty of Choice"by- treatment group analyses found no significance using Kruskal-Wallis test, and trend toward significance using chi-square. Content analysis of open-ended question, "What guided you ..• " yielded seven categories of answers, and chi-square of "What guided you"-by-respondents' first choice of residential setting was significant. "Experience" and "Privacy and Independence" were most influential factors from content analysis, but only trends toward significance were found in chi-square, cross-tabulating them by treatment group. Since cross-tabulation of respondents'-by-social workers' choices showed no significance, six rankings were collapsed into three and significance was found for supported housing option (respondents and social workers choosing it in common third or fourth) for total sample. Other significance was found in verbal treatment group for homeless shelter (chosen in common fifth or sixth), and for supported housing (chosen in common third or fourth). Rank correlations of respondents' and social workers' choices for total sample found significant negative relationship for room and board option. Rank correlations of choices by treatment group found significant negative relationship for room and board in the verbal treatment group; found significant positive relationship for residential care facility in the verbal/written treatment group; found significant negative relationship for room and board option in the verbal/written/visual treatment group. Abstraction deficits evidently do no affect the way chronically mentally ill persons choose residential options. The chronically mentally ill also do not find choosing a residential placement any more or less difficult given the presentation of written and visual descriptions in addition to verbal description. Given excess of "not very difficult" answers to "difficulty" question, validity of "difficulty" question to detect quality of choice process is questionable. Better outcome question may have been, "How satisfied are you with you choices?". Given distribution of respondents' and social workers' choices, compromise between independent living and residential care facility is suggested in choice of supported housing program.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a psycho-educational group on parents of the chronically mentally ill. The perceived quality of the parent's marital relationships, family environment, reported psychological symptoms, and knowledge of the etiology, treatment, and phenomena regarding chronic mental illness were measured for members of the treatment and comparison groups. A non-randomized comparison pretest-posttest design was employed to study the impact of participation in a psycho-educational group on the dependent variables. The treatment group (n = 18) and comparison group (n = 20) were matched on a number of demographic variables. The Dyadic Adjustment Scale, comprised of four subscales, measured the perceived quality of the parents' marital relationship. Eight of the ten subscales of the Family Environmental Scale were used to assess the family atmosphere while selected subscales of the Symptom Checklist 90-Revised assessed the parents' reported psychological symptoms. The Mental Illness Questionnaire served as an indicator of parents' knowledge of various aspects of chronic mental illness. Data were analyzed using a two-factor repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). T tests were conducted at the pretest point to ensure the comparability of the groups. Interviews were conducted at the follow-up point to obtain subjective comments regarding the impact of chronic mental illness on the family as well as an evaluation of the psycho-educational group. Findings indicated that families do increase and retain knowledge regarding chronic mental illness as a result of participating in a psycho-educational group. Some improvement was noted in the perceived quality of marital relationships for members of the treatment group. There were no identified changes in the family environment or reported psychological symptoms based solely on group participation. The individual interviews conducted at the four-week follow-up supported the belief that chronic mental illness typically has a detrimental effect on the variables studied, and that participation in a psycho-educational group serves as a valuable resource to address the family's concerns.

Abstract:
As psychiatric practice becomes more embedded in social, cultural, and financial networks, it is hardly surprising that the scrutiny of psychiatrists by organizations and institutions grows almost daily. This chapter focuses on the scrutiny of psychiatric ethics. Seven papers are reviewed, ranging from the mid-1950s up to 2009. Topics considered include: professional relationships between psychiatrists, physician impairment, confidentiality in the context of dangerousness, standard-of-care disputes, assessments of competency and decision-making capacity, the history and ethics of psychosurgery and neuromodulation, treatment refusal in chronically mentally ill patients, and conflicts of interest in clinical practice guideline authorship. Each paper is summarized with background information, methods, results, and a critical discussion of its significance.
