Characteristics of seriously mentally ill adults in a public mental health system.

To aid in planning mental health services, the state of Michigan collected sociodemographic and clinical information on a sample of 2,447 mental health system clientele in both hospital and community settings. Hospitalized patients were found to have poorer functioning and higher levels of disability than clients treated in community settings. Younger patients were more likely to be male, to exhibit more self-destructive behaviors, and to be more aggressive and demoralized. Older patients were more likely to be women, to have a high degree of physical health care needs, and to possess poor skills in self-care and community living. The heterogeneous nature of the population and the presence of complicating problems not traditionally served by mental health systems, such as medical illness and substance abuse, point to a need for interagency planning to address the needs of seriously mentally ill adults.
