Lovgivning om forsorg for psykisk syge

NY OG OPDATERET 2022 UDGAVEAnstalt og menneske må betragtes som et af tidens hovedværker inden for den sociologiske analyse af livet i den totale institutions lukkede verden, således som vi kender den fra f.eks. fængsler, kaserner, skibe, kostskoler, klostre, alderdomshjem, opdragelseshjem m.m. Anstalt som menneske skildrer, hvad disse institutioner »får ud af« klienterne, og hvad klienterne »får ud af« tilværelsen inden for murene – på godt og ondt, måske navnlig det sidste… Opmærksomheden rettes i særlig grad mod statshospitalet med udgangspunkt i forfatterens studier i marken gennem 1 år som medarbejder ved et stort amerikansk statshospital. Erwing Goffman fremlægger i bogen den hovedtese, at den mest betydningsfulde faktor i den sindslidende patients udvikling under opholdet ikke så meget er hans sygdom, men selve institutionen og alt, hvad den indebærer. Anstalt og menneske har derfor bud til enhver, som er beskæftiget – eller anbragt – i disse institutioner, samt til alle, der ønsker at vide besked med en af vort samfunds skyggesider.Bogen er senest udkommet i 14 oplag i oktober i en opdateret udgave.

"A powerful and passionate indictment of the use of psychiatric testimony in criminal cases." -The Cleveland Plain DealerA year after Richard Herrin confessed to killing his girlfriend, Bonnie Garland, he was found not guilty of murder. His crime, he pleaded, was committed "under extreme emotional disturbance," excusing him from maximum responsibility. He was convicted on the reduced charge of manslaughter.In this incisive examination of the murder, the trial, and its aftermath, a distinguished psychiatrist addresses the issue of the insanity defense. He shows how psychiatric testimony can distort court proceedings, and brilliantly analyzes the conflict between the individual rights of the accused and society's right to justice.

Bei der Behandlung schizophrener Patienten mit Fremdgefährdungspotential für Dritte stehen Behandelnde medizinisch und rechtlich oft im Spannungsfeld kollidierender Interessen und Grundrechte. Durch das Symptom der Fremdaggressivität tritt in der Psychiatrie neben den originär ärztlichen, an den Interessen des Patienten ausgerichteten Heilauftrag eine Verantwortung der Behandelnden auch gegenüber gefährdeten Dritten. Die Autorin zeigt unter Berücksichtigung der Besonderheiten der Behandlung schizophrener Patienten insbesondere mit Blick auf Unsicherheiten in der Diagnostik auf, unter welchen Voraussetzungen Behandelnde bei Verletzung ärztlicher Sorgfaltspflichten unter Berücksichtigung deren Schutzzwecke für drittschädigendes Patientenverhalten haften.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU HAD THE TIME TO THINK ABOUT YOUR LIFE?I grew up fairly simply during the 1970s and there have been many changes around me, since then-it can be overwhelming at times, but I kept up!This book is primarily, for the person who grew up in the 2000's and who do not understand what life was like before Smartphones, Netflix and TikTok memes took over their brain space.I see the advantages of both eras-things were slower when I grew up and I had the chance to meditate on my life; however, I had less knowledge about what others my age were doing in the World-it was a bit lonely.This book is part autobiography/Memoire, journal-with blank pages and mystery/short story - I wish that you will take the time to search inside yourself and accomplish your dreams, one page at a time...Thanks for reading and for sharing your thoughts. We all need to support each other during these trying times. Be careful to watch your Mental Health, eat right, exercise, and share your feelings with the ones you love --be safe! ¿ Paula Ann Stewart ¿

This collection brings together leading international socio-legal and medico-legal scholars to explore the dilemma of how to support legal capacity in theory and practice. Traditionally, decisions for persons found to lack capacity are made by others, generally without reference to the person, and this applies especially to those with cognitive and psycho-social disabilities. This book examines the difficulties in establishing effective and deliverable supported decision-making, concluding that approaches to capacity need to be informed by a grounded understanding of how it operates in 'real life' contexts. The book focuses on the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), which recognises the equal right to legal capacity of people with disabilities and requires States Parties to provide support for the exercise of this right. However, 10 years after the CRPD came into force, the shift to legal frameworks for supported decision-making remains at best only partial.With 16 chapters written by contributors from the UK, Canada, Finland, India, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, and Turkey, the collection takes a comparative and interdisciplinary approach. Many of the contributors have been directly involved in law reform processes in their home jurisdictions, and thus can combine both academic expertise and practical, grounded awareness of the challenges of legal change.
