Objective: Over a 4-year period in Toronto, this study aimed to compare individuals on a community treatment order (CTO) with individuals not on a CTO in terms of sociodemographic and clinical variables, hospital use, and continued engagement with health services on exit from the case management program. Hospital stay reductions from preadmission into the program to various postadmission periods were compared across the 2 groups.
Methods: Descriptive statistics and tests of statistical significance (chi-square and t test) were run on regularly collected administrative data for both groups.
