Ten Years of Community Treatment Orders in Western Switzerland
Community treatment orders (CTOs) are legal procedures that authorise compulsory community mental health care for people with severe mental disorders. Since their introduction in Switzerland in 2013, the Swiss Canton of Vaud (846'300 inhabitants) has been engaged in the monitoring of CTOs.

Alliance thérapeutique, entre rupture et jeux de pouvoir, une étude qualitative

Therefore, the main goal of our study was to describe mental health professionals' fe…
