Training psychiatrists to work with community support systems for chronically mentally ill persons
DL Cutler, JD Bloom and JH Shore
Community support programs are becoming a major priority in community
mental health centers throughout the country. The authors present a
training design that integrates principles and skills associated with this
model into a 4-year residency training program. The aim of such programs is
to keep young psychiatrists involved and in the forefront of the newer
approaches to the treatment of chronically mentally ill persons.
