Answer to Question 1

(1) Emphasize a resident rather than patient status through informal dress of staff, open channels of communication in all directions, and broad (but clear) authority structure. (2) Make clear, through a set of rules and attitudes, that the residents are responsible human beings; are expected to follow certain minimal rules of group living; and are expected to do their share in participating in self-care, work, recreational, and social activities. (3) Utilized step systems which gradually increase the expectations placed on residents in terms of their degree of independence and level of responsibility. (4) Encourage social interactions and skills and provide a range of activities as well as regular large and small group meetings. (5) Emphasize clarity of communication, with concrete instruction in appropriate behavior and focus on utilitarian action rather than explanation.
