Patients' experience of the therapeutic process in a crisis intervention unit.
To all patients hospitalized in 1986 in the Crisis Intervention Unit in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia, an inventory was sent. In this way, we tried to find out how the patients experience the treatment and stay on the Unit, what is most helpful in solving their problems and what are, in their opinion, the direct gains of hospitalization. On the basis of the results, we determined what should be changed or improved to make the treatment in our Unit more effective.
