Bipolar Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Trial of "Opening Doors to Recovery" for Persons With Serious Mental Illnesses
Insufficient community-based support after inpatient discharge for persons with serious mental illnesses (SMI) may lead to re-hospitalization, excessive criminal justice involvement, homelessness, and an inability to embrace recovery. In fact, many of these especially vulnerable persons find themselves in a cycle of repeated hospital stays, arrests, and even homelessness, with little support for real recovery. Public mental health systems are struggling to address these problems. Evidence-based, comparatively inexpensive, time-limited community support models are needed to reduce institutional recidivism and facilitate recovery. The Georgia chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI-GA) developed Opening Doors to Recovery (ODR), and we have collected extensive preliminary data on it. ODR is now being tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) taking place in southeast Georgia where ODR was first developed. The primary goals of ODR are to prevent institutional recidivism (i.e., going back into the hospital) and to promote recovery among persons with SMI like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The ODR intervention is comprised of several components that work together to address barriers to successful integration into the community among individuals with SMI and repeated inpatient hospitalizations. A team of 3 specially trained "Community Navigation Specialists" (CNSs, also called Navigators) provides intensive, mobile, community support to persons with SMI with a defined history of inpatient recidivism (i.e., repeated hospital stays). We are carrying out a fully powered trial of ODR in a 7-county catchment area in southeast Georgia, which is an ideal real-world location to carry out the study. During the 5-year study period, we will randomize 240 persons with SMI and a history of ≥2 inpatient stays in the past 12 months to ODR (n=120, followed for 12 months, with a maximum CNS caseload of 40) versus community care in traditional intensive case management or case management (ICM/CM, n=120). Assessments are conducted at baseline (just before hospital discharge), and at 4, 8, 12, and 18 months.
