The "Passage" from OPG to ATSM

Abstract

In this contribution, the authors give us a brief analysis of the legislative landscape that marked the transition from the Judicial Psychiatric Hospitals to the Articulations for the Protection of Mental Health and the Residences for the Execution of Security Measures; the focus is on the health area in the regional context (Sicily) with specific reference to the Vittorio Madia prison in Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto.
