SummaryForensic psychiatric services care for patients who present with a mental disorder as well as a risk to themselves or others, and have usually been convicted of an offence. Their needs are complex and the length of stay (LoS) in forensic settings is long. LoS is affected by patient factors as well as legal and policy issues. Owing to the considerable economic and ethical issues surrounding lengthy stays in highly restrictive settings, it is crucial that a strategy is developed for how to deal with this patient group.Declaration of interestNone.
摘要
法医精神病服务机构负责照料那些患有精神障碍且对自身或他人构成风险、通常已被判定有罪的患者。他们的需求复杂,在法医环境中的住院时间很长。住院时间受到患者因素以及法律和政策问题的影响。鉴于在高度限制环境中长时间住院存在相当多的经济和伦理问题,制定一项针对如何处理这一患者群体的策略至关重要。
