Download or read book Discretionary Decision making in Community Based Residential Facilities written by Kadance Backman and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community Based Residential Facilities (CBRFs) are an integral part of the adult corrections system, housing nearly half of the federal community offender population. Despite the critical and professional role CBRF staff play in supervising offenders in the community, little is known about the dynamics between staff and clients and how these dynamics may affect the success of offenders on conditional release. Through interviews with staff, the current study explores the dynamics between CBRF staff and clients, and how staff use discretionary decision-making based on these dynamics. The findings suggest the decision-making of staff about offenders is impacted by whether they view offenders as "ideal" or "non-ideal". This, in turn, may affect the dynamics between staff and the supervising parole officers. Both of these factors may contribute to the success or failure of offenders on conditional release. The implications of these findings for correctional policy and for future research are explored.

Download or read book Assisted Living written by Sheryl Zimmerman and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the number of elderly persons needing long-term care expected to double to 14 million over the next two decades, assisted living has become the popular choice for housing or care. Assisted living represents a promising model of long-term care that blurs the sharp distinction between nursing homes and community-based care and reduces the gap between receiving long-term care in one's own home and in an "institution." Assisted Living: Needs, Practices, and Policies in Residential Care for the Elderly examines the evolving field of residential care and focuses on national issues of regulation, reimbursement, and staffing. The book is based on a four-state study of assisted living facilities and describes the facilities, the persons residing in them and their needs, and how the services vary by facility. Because one-third to two-thirds of residents in assisted living facilities have cognitive impairment, special attention is devoted to dementia care. The book also focuses on how today's long-term health care environment evolved, and it examines the future direction and implications of assisted living. Assisted Living: Needs, Practices, and Policies in Residential Care for the Elderly brings together a group of nationally recognized experts to help define the types of residential care that should be encouraged and sets guidelines for selecting an appropriate type of facility.

Download or read book Moving from Residential Institutions to Community based Social Services in Central and Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union written by David Tobis and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most harmful, costly, and intractable legacies of the command economies of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union is the reliance on residential institutions for the care of children, the elderly, and the people with disabilities. As a result, there are almost no community-based alternatives to care for large and growing numbers of vulnerable individuals. Other industrial nations have experienced similar periods of economic and social upheaval and also relied on residential institutions to care for vulnerable and marginalized groups. However, most of these nations have switched from residential care to community-based social services. The question for the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union is how they can make the same transition. 'Moving from Residential Institutions to Community-Based Social Services in Central and Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union' examines the use of residential institutions for vulnerable groups, past and present, and proposes strategies for the future. The study focuses on five countries, Albania, Armenia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Romania, where the World Bank is helping develop community-based social services to reduce the reliance on residential institutions.

Download or read book Residential Care for the Elderly written by Sharon Baggett and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1989-09-25 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although residential care and assisted living for older adults has expanded rapidly in recent decades, it has done so in a policy environment beset by confusion and conflicting purposes. Sharon A. Baggett traces many of the current problems to insufficient knowledge of the population these policies are designed to serve. In her examination of the frequently neglected interface between policy and people, she provides a comprehensive review of current federal and state policies, a detailed case study of a state residential care program, and an analysis of the needs and characteristics of persons in assisted living facilities. Baggett's policy overview covers such areas as the confusion between housing and care, supply and demand factors in the economics of residential care, conditions contributing to the increase in numbers of assisted living facilities, and current policies that define and limit the choice of residential alternatives. A case study of Oregon's residential care program shows how that state has adapted federal initiatives to local goals and philosophies of long-term care. Funding mechanisms, regulations, and the role of state agencies in developing and monitoring compliance are discussed. Following a comprehensive profile of facility residents, the question of using functional assessment measures to determine individual needs is explored. Linking the larger policy issues with an in-depth analysis of residents served and actual services provided, this book will be helpful to policy planners and developers, administrators, and case managers, as well as students and academics concerned with housing and assisted living services for the elderly.
