The needs of nondangerous mentally ill persons, the right of patients to refuse treatment, and professionals' duty to warn about the potential for dangerous behavior are important and controversial legal issues. The author considers the difficulties social workers have in implementing the principles and discusses the likely effects of the American Psychiatric Association's proposed model law on mental health services, particularly in the context of inadequate community care resources.
无危险性精神疾病患者的需求、患者拒绝治疗的权利以及专业人员就潜在危险行为发出警告的职责，都是重要且具有争议性的法律问题。作者思考了社会工作者在贯彻这些原则时所面临的困难，并探讨了美国精神病学协会提议的模范法对心理健康服务可能产生的影响，尤其是在社区护理资源不足的背景下。
