1 The Bazelon Center report includes the names of only 3 States that define the need for specialized services as extending beyond 24-hour inpatient care: Colorado, Michigan, and Minnesota. These States use a broad spectrum of rehabilitative services aimed at developing skills necessary to live in the community as criteria. The remaining 30 States that responded use 24-hour inpatient care as their criteria.
The 30 States checked presumably represent these remaining 30 States; we assume that the Bazelon Center did not receive a response from Mississippi. These States are Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
