Abstract
Introduction: The Arnold Lodge Admissions Cohort: Reconviction and Intervening Treatment (ALACRITy) study examined the characteristics and outcomes of a cohort of 909 first admissions discharged from Arnold Lodge Medium Secure Unit (MSU) in Leicester between July 1983 and June 2013. Little is known about the long term reconviction and readmission rates of patients discharged from medium security. Therefore this study sort to add to the knowledge base surrounding the outcomes of patients discharged from such services.
