Ontslag-onder-voorwaarden bij 3 psychiatrische patiënten die opgenomen waren met een rechterlijke machtiging: de ambulante praktijk

- Three patients, two women aged 54 and 38 years and a man aged 39, of whom the first suffered from a schizoaffective disorder with hyperthyroidism and the others from schizophrenia, were admitted by virtue of the Wet Bijzondere Opneming in Psychiatrische Ziekenhuizen (BOPZ; Bill on Compulsory Admission to Psychiatric Hospitals). They were discharged under conditions of the BOPZ. The conditions were discussed with the patient, the psychiatric hospital, the outpatient department and the general practitioner. The three patients did well. This conditional discharge reopens the discussion on ambulatory compulsory treatment in the Netherlands.
