Abstract

The author interprets the threat brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic as a crisis. She explores how this crisis affects a vulnerable group, the group of persons with mental disorders.  She argues that forms of care should be adapted to respond patients previous as well as newly emerging needs and designed with regard to recently acquired professional experiences. She also brings some practical examples on these innovations.
