Recovery Group Pilot

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a low-cost, joint consumer/counselor-led, health education and support intervention that will foster self-care and recovery among adults with serious mental illness. Results from the study will indicate how well the workbook and the overall program were received by individuals with serious mental illness, and whether participating in the program appeared to improve recovery and functioning.

Clinical Trial Description

Recent research suggests that many individuals with serious mental illnesses may recover from these conditions and become fully integrated into their communities. Although improved medications may be most responsible for these developments, self-help groups, social support, and empowerment have been identified as important facilitators of the recovery process. Recovery-oriented, consumer-led approaches are gaining in popularity, but few of these interventions have been evaluated scientifically.

This pilot study proposes to develop and evaluate a recovery-oriented program that centers on the use of a self-help workbook. Results from the study will indicate how well the workbook and the overall program were received by individuals with serious mental illness, and whether participating in the program appeared to improve recovery and functioning.

Objectives:

1. To develop group-facilitator materials to complement the self-help workbook.

2. To conduct a randomized trial of the intervention with kaiser Permanente Northwest (KPNW) members with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder, using a delayed control group design and 6- and 12-month post-intervention follow-up.

3. To assess participant attendance and satisfaction with the group sessions;

4. To assess whether participating in the group intervention was associated with improvements in short-term recovery and functioning. ;
