A psychiatric aide tells the nurse, I don't quite understand what staff members mean when they mention deinstitutionalizat ion. The best response for the nurse would be to explain that deinsti-tutionalization refers to:
1. A set of activities clients use in their routine daily lives
2. A reimbursement system providing a set amount of money for services for a single client
3. Clinical coordination of inpatient and outpatient services to prevent duplication and lower costs
4. Discharge of chronically ill clients from psychiatric inpatient facilities into the community

1. listening to the things you want to tell me.
2. making sure you take your medications.
3. coordinating all aspects of your care.
4. helping you adjust to community living.
