Popis: | This paper examines changes in use of state mental hospitals in Washington State from July 1, 1990, to July 1, 1997. It focuses on the phenomenon of ongoing use of state mental hospital by patients over a period of years. Two panels of state mental hospital users were identified: one preceded and one followed implementation of state mental hospital downsizing policies. Though the number of adults per year using the state mental hospital decreased following policy implementation, there was a significant increase in the overall rate of ongoing use. A logistic regression for ongoing use with multiple individual and regional predictor variables is described. |
