The final destination of the mental health care is to make the patient recover his productive social skill, forcusing on his social rehabilitation, with the basic goal of avoiding unnecessary hospitalized treatment and removing of the symptom.
It also aims to strengthen the community-based mental treatment, avoiding hospitalized treatment as much as possible, thus balancing and connecting the two strategies. For hospitalized treatment should be practised only in necessary cases and partial hospitalization should be activated. As for hospitalization facilities, they should be restricted in size suitable for the treatment of patient.
