description | Quality of life issues must be addressed more vigorously in the care of
chronic mental patients. In a survey of 30 large board-and-care homes in
Los Angeles, 278 mentally disabled residents described their life
conditions and satisfaction in eight areas: living situation, family
relations, social relations, leisure activities, work, finances, safety,
and health. Residents were less satisfied than the general population in
most life areas, especially finances, unemployment, safety, and family and
social relations (p less than .001). Of particular concern was the finding
that 34% had been recent victims of crime. The results underscore the need
for better social programs for these patients. |
