Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most experts advocate for increasing the quality and availability of intermediate care facilities as an alternative to traditional mental hospitals and as a way to provide better care for individuals with mental illness. This approach allows for a more community-based approach to treatment while still providing necessary support and services for those in need. Increasing the number of traditional mental hospitals (A) or returning to the era of mental hospitals as custodial homes (C) is not considered a viable solution, as research has shown that such institutions can lead to poor quality of life and excessive use of restrictive measures. While reducing the problem of homelessness (B) is important, it is only one aspect of the larger issue of providing adequate care for those with mental illness.
