Abstract:
A 24-hour home care team for people with severe mental illness has led to a reduction in inpatient stays and reduced service costs, according to a controlled evaluation. The 24-hour availability was popular with users. Home treatment should not be seen as an exclusive alternative to inpatient care. Admission is essential in some cases.
