Long-stay custodial psychiatric hospitals, which often hold people with mental disorders for a lifetime, are of human rights concern at all times, but especially in war and other emergencies (panel 1). Large psychiatric hospitals tend to hinder rather than facilitate recovery from mental illness. 1 The failures of such hospitals include inadequate treatment services, repeated ill-treatment of patients, insufficient inspection and quality assurance procedures, and absorption of financial resources for mental health services. Many countries are gradually phasing out custodial psychiatric hospitals while strengthening community mental-health services. 1
