The article informs that the continuous process of improvement and change requires that a successful mental health system tailor and update its processes and products to meet the perceived needs of all stakeholders, rather than just continuing to provide its usual products. Effective systems need to avoid the trap of simply wanting to fill beds or increase service hours. Educators and advocates must pay attention to training the next generation of mental health professionals to fit into the new services. The challenge for the next decade is to establish the conditions under which comprehensive community mental health services may become widespread, stable, and enduring. This challenge will be met only by integrating hospital and community, treatment and rehabilitation services under one leadership for each catchment area. |
