Introduction

In 2019 national survey - personal examination of persons, living in residential facilities for mentally disabled people - was executed under the instruction of the Government by specialists of V.Serbsky National Medical Research Centre. For 2559 legally incapacitated residents the procedure of rehabilitation of full or diminished capacity was recommended. For 16132 legally capable residents the procedure for recognising their incapacity was recommended (Kekelidze ZI et al., 2020).

Objectives

To compare the recommendations on legal capacity in two regions with different systems of inpatient social services.

Methods

Full-sized noncontrol observational descriptive screening study.

Results

In table 1 the recommendations on legal capacity in two regions are presented.

Legally incapacitated residents3671 (95,7%)1347 (72,5%)
Partly legally capable residents17 (0,4%)0 (0%)
Legally capable residents149 (3,9%)512 (27,5%)
Rehabilitation of full or diminished capacity was recommended (% of incapacitated)186 (5%)31 (2,3%)
Deprivation of legal capacity was recommended (% of legally capable)12 (8%)29 (5,7%)

Conclusions

Differences in quantity of residents, for whom rehabilitation of full or diminished capacity was recommended, depend on characteristics of the systems of institutional care in the regions. In the first region a complex system of rehabilitation and deinstitutionalization has been organised. In the second region such system is just organising. Among legally capable and those, for whom rehabilitation of capacity was recommended, there were residents, able to live independently or under community-based services.
