ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the Federal Participation Act state that all human beings have the right to choose where to live. This human right is compromised by the institutional limitations of the community psychiatric system, where persons with severe mental illnesses and with intensive support needs are often housed in closed (i.e. physically locked) living contexts. How can the concept of person-centered care help to solve this conflict?OBJECTIVE:
Description of the nationwide situation of closed residential facilities and discussion of the person-centered approach as a solution to the problem of closed living contexts.METHODS:
Summary of current knowledge on the structural and procedural data of closed residential facilities in Germany, which were collated within the framework of the "Coercive measures in the psychiatric care system-Collation and reduction" (ZIPHER) study.RESULTS:
The empirical data indicate a great need for regionally based care of the target group and a lack of individual arrangements as alternatives to closed living contexts. The necessity for regional care obligations is highlighted by the example of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.CONCLUSION:
The avoidance and reduction of closed accommodation can primarily be achieved by individual arrangements within the framework of person-centered and flexible proposal landscapes. For this the service providers of integration assistance, including the psychiatric hospitals, must be committed to the care of all people in their region. An appropriate accompaniment and refunding by the service provider are also necessary.Palavras-chave
