Extract
Mortality among psychiatric patients has been found to be higher than the general population, not only in those long-term residents in old-fashioned psychiatric hospitals or attending hospital-based psychiatric services (Harris & Barraclough, 1998) but also in those treated in modern community-based systems of care (Amaddeo et al., 1995; Grigoletti et al., 2009).
