What do you think happens to mentally ill offenders while in prison? Do you think our country has enough facilities to help rehabilitate mentally ill criminals and assimilate them into society?

Suppose you were to have a mentally ill person just out of jail, living in your neighbourhood, what measures would you undertake to feel safe around them?

It is through these patterns that we are able to distinguish communities. Culture significantly influences health. People have different perceptions about illnesses, death, the…
