摘要
The objective of this study was to describe emergency commitment of people from assisted living facilities (ALFs) and to discuss relevant policy issues. This study used statewide, archival emergency commitment data from July 2000 through June 2008. During the 1 year from July 07 through June 08 there were 3,061 people with 4,163 emergency commitments from ALFs. Some individuals had more than one emergency commitment during the year, with 20% having between 2 and 9 emergency commitments from ALFs. Some of these individuals also had substantial numbers of emergency commitments in the 7 years from July 2000 through June 2007. Discussed are possible factors related to emergency commitment from ALFs and the need for additional research on these topics. This includes availability of mental health services for these populations, the role of client characteristics, and how licensing of ALFs relates to emergency commitment of ALF residents.
