I don’t like to use social media to share my new papers but I thought I’d do it this week anyway. My paper with Jonathan Seward, Karen Clay and Vivian Vigliotti on mental health screening and self harm among inmates in a large urban county jail is now out in JHR
Hi, So interesting! It occurs to me that the same mechanisms are probably at work when someone checks into a private assisted living facility for the first time. (How does it work for Medicare/Medicaid only facilities? There is a standard assessment to see if they can go to assisted living, or need skilled nursing or even memory care. There are probably studies of thrive/no thrive in each of of these settings. In my experience if the facility says you need the more expensive memory care or skilled nursing then you don't get in unless you/family agree and have the financial ability to shoulder that cost.
