Gladioli, red, 1 from seed, 1 stem or 1 Jack's jottings from Queen's BY JACK RIDDELL M.P.P. The theory of dein- , Stitutionalization is a noble one. The idea that t i is better to care for people with non-acute health and social problems in the corn- munity than it is to shut them away in institutions was first developed in -connection with chronically mentally ill patients. It is now in- tended to help all those with chronic problems, incluiiing mentally ill, mentally retarded, elderly and physically disabled people. A community-based approach' promised to be infinitely more humane as well as less costly to the public. Unfor- tun_ate 1 y,. dein- stitutionalization is falling short of its goals, and is occurring without adequate planning to ensure that necessary support services are in place; without any single Ministry or level of government hiving the clear responsibility and authority to do such long term planning, and without a rational or co- ordinated approach to funding community support services. In all too many cases, the alternative living environments for ex - patients and the elderly consist of substandard b t'd gr and. lodging homes. Overlooked has been the need to provide many of the services that would have been provided by the hospital or institutional home. Extra special services which these people require if they are truly to enter or remain in the mainstream of com- munity living - are deficient. As a result, agencies and, those who provide services are resentful and frustrated, and the people who were' intended to benefit from the new approach receive inadequate care in many insttinces. Between 1963 and. 1978, the number of psychiatric beds in Ontario was cut by alnpst three quarters - from 16,000 to 4,600. This; dramatic change was brought about by a reaction against the traditional mediaeval treatment of mentally ill people combined with the discovery of new drugs that allowed those with chronic mental problems to be stabilized. The problem with Ontario's rapid dein- stitutionalization is that it has not been matched by a corresponding growth • in. community facilities The closure of Toronto's Lakeshore- - Psychiatric Hospital last year is a typical example of what has occurred. Only half of the $2.6 million repor- tedly saved was redirected into new community programs in the area served by the hospital, and only a tiny fraction went for housing those who were discharged. In Metro Toronto, the inadequacy of the present situation is widely acknowledged. Articles in the press have been graphically described the life 'of squalor and desperation faced by many hundreds of former mental patients now living three .and four or more to a room in dingy boarding houses. A Metro report in October 1979 confirmed the picture: boarding homes with 30 or 40 beds, minimal quality meals, little or •no supervisory care suitable for the needs of residents, haphazard supervision of drugs - despite -the fact that 95 percent of discharged mentally ill patients are required to follow a medication program; little in the way Of "activation" programs designed to reintegrate former patients into community life. - Nor can one always blame boarding house operators, many of whom gelittle financial reward „„ or outside support. Rates depend on the incomes of residents, and the majority of ex - psychiatric patients are either on municipal Welfare, provincial family benefits, or old age pensions. At monthly rates often ranging from $190 to $230 for room and board, itis hard to make a profit without com- promising on ac- commodation, food or needed supervisory care. The obvious first step to Solving the boarding home problem is to set and enforce standards. E xi s t in g. ; cue n s .:u g arranger�ent's, ro'r boarding homes vary throughout the province, and do little to protect residents. Where licences are required, the em- phasis tends to be on minimum physical standards (i.e. cubic feet of space per person, number of persons, fire safety). No one appears to be willing to take. responsibilityfor setting standards .of care and ensuring that they are kept through proper inspection. Compounding the problems arising from the poor quality of many boarding homes is the insufficient supply of res identia 1 alternatives. Critics of dein- stitutionalization point to high readmission rates - the "revolving door" pattern, showing that 65 or 70 percent of those admitted for psychiatric treatment to hospital are repeaters, though this group represents a small percentage of the total --rru--r t'! }vv r r t rr'ar-—tt'e"d . Defenders answer that many forms of mental illness are cyclical and require frequent returns to hospitals They insist that the situation is Announcement Mr. J. M. Cynningham wishes to announce the appointment of Donald Johnson as Manager of TOPNOTCH FEEDS LIMITED, Brussels, Ontario. Don has been employed with the company for 13 years.as a salesrepresentative in the Wroxeter area and brings to this position many years of practical experience in all aspects of agriculture. Don and his wife Lois are presently living at RR2 Mildrnay. Park worsened by both inef- fective monitoring and the lack of a unified network of support services to facilitate the move from hospital to community. One problem is simply keeping track of discharged patients. The therapist may make referrals but follbw-up is impossible if patients get "lost". Because so many patients need ,so-called oul:rreaoh services", it is important to know who and where the mentally ill are. However, concern for patients' rights makes the establishment of a central registry unlikely, The larger issue is that of responsibility. Ex - patients have a whole range of needs - psychiatric and health, housing, vocational, social and recreational. At the present time, there is a patchwork of facilities offering a variety of services, with no agency responsible for ensuring that they are provided ' on a co- ordinated basis. Unless a policy is developed on community mental health services, including housing, dein- stitutionalization will continue to mean little more than the emptying ' of hospital beds, with minimal patient rehabilitation.
