What are the advantages + disadvantages of ward versus community based mental health nursing?

i am looking for the pro's and cons of both

Only really one difference really.

In wards you can lock the buggers in rather than having them running around knifing people.

in community based nursing you are on their turf, it's just you and in their space which may be very objectionable to you, you can't do anything about it unless they are harming themselves.
In the ward it's a very unatural setting, can't always get to truth of what's going on without seeing the rest of their environment.
