Continuity of care for chronic mental patients: a conceptual analysis
LL Bachrach
The author discusses seven dimensions of continuity of care, a basic
concept in planning services for chronic mental patients. Continuity of
care in psychiatry is distinguished from that in other medical specialties
by the unique needs of chronic mental patients. Different approaches to
continuity must be used for chronic mental patients with different
institutional histories and specialized service needs.
