Impossible task IMO without relying on the patient to self regulate. Since we hear story after story of how the meds make people feel terrible, there is no way in Hades that is something worth risking in lieu of public safety.

My girlfriends job is to drive around Vancouver twice a day carrying large quantities of anti psychotic medication for thirty or so patients, she delivers and monitors their med' compliance as part of a community monitoring program, it's cheaper than keeping the patients in hospital. They don't take the med's they get pulled back into hospital that day generally
