Filter by:The person-centered, motivational, recovery-, and activity-based intervention model 'Everyday Life Rehabilitation´ (ELR), integrated in sheltered and supported housing facilities for people with severe psychiatric disabilities, has shown significant outcomes in feasibility studies, and thus a RCT is required, for the purpose of establishing the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of ELR. All municipalities in northern and middle Sweden will be invited. Residents who meet the inclusion criteria, will be invited to participate. Housing-units, with associated residents giving consent, will be randomized to either receive intervention with ELR plus treatment as usual (TAU), or TAU alone for control group. Hence, the present study is a cluster RCT. The control group will, after control-period, be offered ELR. Professionals involved in the ELR intervention group; that is occupational therapists, housing staff and housing managers, will receive an educational package. It is hypothesized that the intervention-group will improve in personal and social recovery as well as quality of life. The primary outcome is recovering quality of life assessed by ReQoL, and secondary outcomes are self-perceived recovery, everyday functioning, and goal-attainment at 6 months, assessed using RAS-DS, and GAS, respectively. ReQoL will be transformed into QALY´s for calculation of cost-effectiveness. The study has an adaptive design, including an internal pilot year one and two, in order to determine required sample sizes before continuing with the full scale RCT.
