Dilemma -- Blocking Community Residences for the Chronically Mentally Disabled
The need for community facilities to house chronically mentally disabled patients presented a conflict in New York City between their unrestricted construction and the prevention of community overburdening. The South Beach Psychiatric Center therefore decided to collaborate with others in opposing unrestricted development. When the center was planned, the widespresd use of such homes had not been considered. The resulting strain that they would place on existing psychiatric, medical, and community services was not incorporated in the planning. In response to community concern about a large home for adults in Brooklyn, a model of collaboration was developed between the center and the home. It was recognized that residents required many types of rehabilitation services and that return to competitive employment was usually not possible. The center recommended that: domiciliary care facilities be limited to 25 residents; the proportion of mentally disabled persons in large facilities be limited to 30 percent; new domiciliary care facilities for Staten Island and West Brooklyn be carefully planned; domiciliary care facilities provide room, board, and laundry separate from mental health and rehabilitation services; facilities be subject to regular inspections; communities where domiciliary care facilities are to be located be given an opportunity to respond through local community planning boards; and domiciliary care facilities be approved for areas where they are needed.
