Extract
The structure of mental illness services is changing rapidly. Large hospitals are closing or preparing to close and the service will be provided in other ways, partly by smaller units, partly by increased care in the community outside hospital and partly by amalgamations of two or more large hospitals. Smaller units allow closer working relationships with GPs, social workers and other professionals.
