Abstract

Classification decisions play a central role in implementation of day care services. A case study is presented which examines classification decisions within an outpatient multilevel psychogeriatric day care program at a state psychiatric center. Staff cited as relevant criteria: social isolation, severity of psychopathology, home emotional climate, activity, ADL and mental status. Issues related to utilization of criteria, such as relevance, consensus, definition and program changes, are discussed.
