    Abstract

    This study investigated aspects of the community psychiatric care of psychotic patients living in inner city areas, and especially those of Afro-Caribbean ethnicity. Ethnicity was not found to be a major factor affecting compliance with depot injections. More important were variables such as time since first treatment and sex. Defaulters from treatment were more likely to be subsequently admitted to hospital.
