WHO urges faster community mental health shift
The World Health Organization has called for accelerating the shift from long-term inpatient psychiatric care to community-based services that ensure the rights and needs of individuals. It has launched a new guide aimed at reducing prolonged stays in psychiatric institutions and promoting the reintegration of individuals into society, supported by housing, health, and social services. Data indicates that 28% of patients spend more than six months in hospitals, and nearly half remain there against their will for years, which isolates them and hinders their rights. This transition requires investment in community services and the involvement of people with lived experience in policy development to ensure their freedom and dignity are upheld.
