Facilitating Social Integration for People With Severe Mental Illness Served by Assertive Community Treatment.
Archives of Psychiatric Nursing 2016 December
PURPOSE: This article explores the experience of workers on Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) teams surrounding their efforts to facilitate social integration for their clients.
DESIGN AND METHODS: Sixteen workers were individually interviewed and eight additional workers participated in two focus groups.
FINDINGS: The formation of caring relationships between worker and client was an important first step towards social integration for ACT clients. Community activities offer opportunities for social interaction.
PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The frequency of community based activities should be increased. Social integration should be a targeted focus of service by structurally embedding a social integration specialist onto the ACT model.
