The authors report on a unique program in which paraprofessionals provide continuing care services to patients in a large public psychiatric hospital, both before and after discharge. Data from one hundred patients indicate that paraprofessional caseworkers effectively managed 85 percent of the patients' post-discharge problems without needing to directly involve their professional teammates.
