Abstract
Psychiatric home care is an effective model for providing care to community-based patients with psychosocial needs who are unable to receive continuous treatment / rehabilitation in mental health hospitals. Moreover, this model has been shown to effectively reduce rehospitalization and promote recovery in these patients. Three psychiatric home care models are described in this article: medical-based home care; prevent recurrence public health home care; and preventing disability long-term care home care. Furthermore, the resources required to provide psychiatric home care are estimated and current psychiatric home care-related problems, dilemmas, and prospects are summarized. Building an accessible psychiatric home care network may be accomplished by promoting evidence-based home care case management practices and ensuring psychiatric case management nurses are properly certified. This network will help improve significantly the quality of care received by community-dwelling patients with mental illness.
