  • Title: Secure units. Safety measures.
    Author: Rooney J.
    Journal: Health Serv J; 1998 Jan 15; 108(5587):26-7. PubMed ID: 10176462.
    Abstract:
    More than 20 years after the publication of the Butler report which led to the establishment of medium-secure units, many of its recommendations have not been implemented. There is still a shortage of beds in medium-secure units. A survey of 18 of the 25 units in England and Wales has revealed wide variations in size as well as staffing ratios. National leadership and more coherent planning is needed.
