[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in mental health and am left leaning. At least two things need to happen to deliver mental health treatment more effectively. One is the threshold for involuntary commitment and involuntary treatment needs to be lowered. Right now it is only mandated when there is “imminent” risk of harm to self or to others. The definition of harm needs to be broadened. The timeline expanded beyond imminent. Second, family need to be involved. If not family then community, to monitor for early warning signs of relapse, to monitor compliance with treatment, attending appointments.[/quote] No, it’s not the family’s responsibility. People who won’t take meds and are dangerous without them need to be kept in facilities. Maybe instead of building housing for the homeless sich facilities should be built in low COL areas. [/quote]
