Rehabilitation in the Nordic countries
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 April 2020
Summary
Since the beginning of the 1980s the five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden have gone through a process of decentralization. This process has taken place at a different pace and according to slightly varying decentralization models, but in all five of the countries the reduction in capacity of psychiatric hospitals has leveled out, whereas the establishing of decentralized treatment functions are not yet sufficiently developed. Furthermore, all five countries focus on rehabilitation of the most severe mentally ill. Examples of different models from the Nordic countries are mentioned.
