Abstract
- Three psychiatric hospital types regularly involved in psychiatric inpatient care, state mental hospitals, psychiatric departments of general hospitals and psychiatric departments of universities are compared based on statistical data. The main results are: general and university departments are functioning very similarly; they show a low number of beds, a low ratio of beds per 1,000 residents, a short length of stay, a low rate of compulsory hospitalizations and a high level of hospitalizations altogether. For all these data state hospitals exhibit the opposite tendency, though they have reached many improvements from 1972 to 1985.
