Implementing residential treatment for prison inmates with mental illness.

There is evidence that mentally ill offenders (MIOs) in prisons commit more infractions, serve longer sentences, and are more likely to be victimized than inmates who are not mentally ill. Humanistic and prison management interests are served if intervention programs minimize symptoms and promote coping and other functional skills. A collaborative agreement was established between Washington State Department of Corrections and a consortium of University of Washington faculty to mutually develop a prison-based program of clinical management and psychoeducation for MIOs. The resulting program is described, along with rationale, planning processes, implementation, and initial evaluation. Most aspects of the planned program are in place. Clinical and behavioral progress by inmates following program participation has been documented. Issues concerning treatment program implementation in prisons are discussed.

Confrontation and support in group therapy in the residential treatment of severely disturbed adolescents.

This paper focuses on the use of various forms of group therapy for severely emotionally and behaviorally disturbed adolescents. Group therapy is considered to be subordinate to a total systemic approach which includes individual, family, group, and milieu therapy. The author uses an eclectic theoretical frame of reference which includes some elements of psychodynamic, object relations, and structural and strategic family therapy theory. Precedents for the confrontational-supportive approach include encounter group and residential drug addiction programs, psychodynamic short-term individual therapy, and dynamic group therapy.

Aromatherapy, used as an integrative tool for crisis management by adolescents in a residential treatment center.

PROBLEM: Little is known about the acceptance and effectiveness of aromatherapy as a complementary support for agitated and aggressive adolescents. METHODS: Chi-square test was applied to satisfaction surveys, administration records of p.r.n. medication, aromatherapy, and seclusion/ restraint data. FINDINGS: Seventy-seven percent of the population accepted and used aromatherapy for crisis management. A trend indicates this population uses less p.r.n. medication for crisis management. CONCLUSIONS: This adolescent population was receptive to using less invasive tools for crisis management. A longitudinal study is needed to determine the long-term efficacy of this treatment modality.
