Resumen

The author discusses seven dimensions of continuity of care, a basic concept in planning services for chronic mental patients. Continuity of care in psychiatry is distinguished from that in other medical specialties by the unique needs of chronic mental patients. Different approaches to continuity must be used for chronic mental patients with different institutional histories and specialized service needs.
