Growing evidence for mental health rehabilitation services

The growing evidence for mental health rehabilitation services

People with complex and long-term needs can lead fulfilling lives in the community with appropriate treatment and support, but many countries fail to provide the rehabilitation services needed to make this possible.

The talk begins by recalling that a shift in societal attitudes from exclusion to inclusion was pivotal in moving mental health care from institutions to community-based settings. It notes that current mental health policies focus on mental health promotion, prevention and early intervention, while giving very little attention to the ongoing needs of people with longer-term and more complex problems. It highlights strong and growing evidence that, with appropriate treatment and support, most people in this group can achieve, sustain and enjoy a fulfilling life in the community. However, it argues that many countries that have implemented deinstitutionalisation have failed to provide the necessary rehabilitation services, leaving these individuals at risk of neglect, abuse and reinstitutionalisation; in some countries, market forces driving the independent sector have exacerbated this process. The session presents evidence for a whole-system approach for people with complex needs, including findings from a national study comparing the outcomes of inpatient mental health rehabilitation services provided by the NHS and the independent sector in England. The talk advocates for an international policy to ensure that people with the most complex mental health problems have access to the full range of specialist rehabilitation services.
