Abstract

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is a service delivery system designed to provide long-term quality care to patients with chronic mental illnesses. A brief description of these programs is presented. These programs can provide valuable training experiences for psychiatric residents. The authors report the results of their survey of residents whose training included a rotation through these services.
