The purpose of this paper is to examine the association of community treatment orders (CTO) with community engagement and housing arrangements for one population of psychiatric patients in Ontario, Canada. Socio demographic characteristics and health service utilization information were collected for each patient placed on a CTO during a 3 year period. Information was collected for each of the 84 patients when a CTO was first issued and then updated to reflect both the patient's ongoing involvement with the legislation and related clinical outcomes. A significant increase in the number of community services and a shift to supportive housing arrangements was found for patients following issuance of a CTO.
本文旨在探讨加拿大安大略省一类精神科患者的社区治疗令（CTO）与社区参与和住房安排之间的关联。在三年期间，为每位接受 CTO 的患者收集了社会人口统计学特征和卫生服务利用信息。在首次发出 CTO 时收集了 84 名患者中的每一位的信息，然后进行更新以反映患者与立法的持续参与情况和相关临床结果。发岀 CTO 后，发现患者接受的社区服务数量显著增加，并且向支持性住房安排转变。
