Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate medium- and long-term developmental directionsof mental hospitals.
Methods: The preliminary investigation is composed of unstructured interviews with 10 psychiatrists,literature and case investigations, and development of models for medium- and longtermdevelopmental model. The qualitative investigation consisted of constructed interviews withseven professionals. The quantitative investigation was conducted using questionnaires, whichwere sent to members of the Korean Neuropsychiatric Association, etc. Data were analyzed usingfrequency analysis.
Results: Through the preliminary investigation we were able to make three models : communitymodel emphasizing linkage between mental hospitals and community, specialization modelstressing specializations of mental hospitals, and extension model highlighting extensions of theroles of the mental hospital. In the qualitative investigation, two of the seven professionals gave aspecial preference for the community model, one for the specialization model, and two for theextension model. In the quantitative investigation, the community model and the specializationmodel were the most favorite models, and the extension model was the least favorite model.
Conclusion: Three developmental models could be used in planning of the medium- and longtermdevelopmental directions of mental hospitals, although each model needs to be embodiedin order to work in practice.
