Texas study targets humane care over old "human warehouse"
The Texas Research League urged replacing the outdated "human warehouse" care model for 34,900 Texas mental patients with rehabilitative treatment to restore patients to usefulness. The report warns of crowding, staff shortages, and rising patient numbers potentially reaching 40,000 to 50,000 in 20 years, with costs from 130 to 259 million dollars. It cites six roadblocks including laws, authority, staffing, and geographic gaps, and notes a large aging patient population needing medical rather than mental care.
