Abstract

Staffing is one part of an overall pattern of organizational functioning. Three organizational models — rational, political and standards — typically seen in mental health programs are described. Who is hired and why are examined in terms of the characteristics of each model. A summary of decision guidelines for staffing is provided, followed by suggestions for formulating a staffing strategy based on the models. Mixed models and models in the late 1980's are discussed.
