Social agencies for several years have been aware of the problems created by the clients failure to follow through with referrals for special and continued services. More recently, psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers have focused attention upon after care for the discharged hospitalized patient. This study concerns itself with the use of after care services by the Veterans Administration Hospital's patients. The focus is on the veterans referred for after care to the Hospital Outpatient Clinic and the Mental Hygiene Clinic upon discharge from the hospital. The purpose of this study was to determine similarities and differences of those veterans. / Typescript. / "June, 1959." / "Submitted to the Graduate School of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." / Advisor: David L.
