An intermediate step between living on a hospital ward and living in the community was considered necessary for many acute and chronic patients preparing to leave Harlem Valley Psychiatric Center in New York. A quarterway house program was initiated to help patients acquire the skills and coping mechanisms they could not easily acquire on a ward setting, but which they would need to meet the demands of living in the community. The quarterway house program described may offer ideas to others who are attempting to help patients prepare for living outside a state hospital.
对于许多准备离开纽约哈莱姆谷精神病中心的急慢性患者而言，介于住院和回归社区生活之间的中间过渡阶段被认为是必要的。为此启动了一个过渡之家项目，以帮助患者掌握在病房环境中难以习得，但回归社区生活时却必不可少的技能与应对机制。这里所描述的过渡之家项目或许能为其他试图帮助患者做好离开州立医院准备的人提供思路。
