[Faculty placement - a problem in psychiatric care].
The article reports on different components of misplacement as an important problem in the psychiatric care. Basing on a census of all in-patients of the Psychiatrische Universitätsklinik Bern (n = 551) different methods of evaluating misplacement are discussed. Some results of the census: - two thirds of the patients suffer from psychoses, another 13% from oligophrenia: - 46% of the patients are older than 60 years; - 72% have been in hospital for more than one year, 30% even for more than 20 years; - a quarter of the patients need special care. Psychiatrists and nursing staff agree that 198 (= 36%) of the 551 patients do not need any psychiatric treatment or nursing. From this point of view these patients have to be regarded as misplaced in the Psychiatrische Universitätsklinik Bern.
