Top 30 Quality Measures

Access to Supported Housing Overall Rank: 25 Best in Domain
Adults with serious mental illness have access to a long term independent living program, including support staff.
Domain : Rehabilitation
The restoration of a person by therapeutic measures and re-education to participation in the activities of a normal life within the limitations of the person’s disorder or disability.
Additional Domain(s) : Accessibility, Living and Working Conditions
Rationale
Long-term independent living program (7 days a week, team availability; available 8am - 8pm daily) where a team works with adults aged 25-64 years with serious mental illness compared to case management model where caseloads and patients are seldom seen more often than every 3 weeks. Desired outcome is reduced hospitalization; timely intervention for recurrence; and emphasis on practical assistance related closely to quality of life enhancement.
Primary Reference
Expert 67
Level of Evidence
IV: Evidence based on individual expert opinion.

Summarized CommentsAdd Comment
  • This is not under PHC control (multiple survey repondents note this).
  • Support staff should be available but not neccesarily living with them.
  • Highly relevant for First Nations.
  • Available to those who need them i.e. unable to live independently in the community without this service
  • I disagree with others comments that this is not PHC relevant, it is a key issue in the stable/maintenance phase of illness care
