[Group round versus traditional ward round: evaluation by patients (author's transl)].
In the course of the restructuring of an open psychiatric general ward doctors began to introduce group rounds in addition to established ward rounds. A description is given of the problems the therapeutic team had in adapting to this new method. --After a "consolidation phase" of approximately a year, structured interviews referring to the above-mentioned new system were carried out with fifty patients over a six month period. These interviews showed that the patients tended to have reservations about the group rounds, and the majority of them showed a preference for the individual attention they were familiar with. The results are being discussed.
