Deinstitutionalization is a concept with multiple definitions and referents, and focused efforts must be made to remove some of the vagueness from this complex concept. An adequate definition of deinstitutionalization includes three primary processes: depopulation, or the shrinking of state hospital censuses; diversion, or the deflection of potential institutional admissions to community‐based service settings; and decentralization, or the broadening of responsibility for patient care from a single service entity to multiple service entities, with an attendant fragmentation of authority. Deinstitutionalization is a fact, a process, and a philosophy, and disjunctions among these aspects of the phenomenon must be reconciled
