Development of a conceptual framework to guide description and evaluation of social interventions for people with serious mental health conditions
People with serious mental health conditions face social exclusion and have poorer social outcomes compared to the general population in several areas of life. Social exclusion also negatively impacts mental health. Promising models of support to improve social outcomes for people with serious mental health conditions have been described in the literature and proliferate in practice, but typologies of support are not clearly established and a rob…
Service use preceding and following first referral for psychiatric emergency care at a short-stay crisis unit
BACKGROUND: Internationally, hospital-based short-stay crisis units have been introduced to provide a safe space for stabilisation and further assessment for those in psychiatric crisis. The units typically aim to reduce inpatient admissions and psychiatric presentations to emergency departments. AIMS: To assess changes to service use following a service user's first visit to a unit, characterise the population accessing these units and examine e…
Cost-effectiveness of peer-supported self-management for people discharged from a mental health crisis team
There was a minimum 57% chance that the intervention was cost-effective compared to the control using 12-month costs and QALYs. The probability varied by 40% when methods were employed to account for the relationship between costs and QALYs, but which restricted the sample to those who provided both complete cost and utility data. Caution should therefore be applied when selecting methods for the evaluation of healthcare interventions that aim to…

Our aim in this study was to understand women's experiences of mental health care and services for psychosis in the postnatal period. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 women who reported being treated for postpartum psychosis. Findings were analyse…

Psychologists' Perspectives on the implementation of Psychological Therapy for Psychosis in the Acute Psychiatric Inpatient Setting
Psychological therapies should be delivered in psychiatric inpatient settings to people experiencing psychosis. However, inpatient populations present with complex needs and usually are admitted only briefly. This makes the delivery of psychological therapies for people experiencing psychosis particularly challenging. Our aim was to explore the adaptations required to deliver psychological therapies to this population from the perspective of inpa…
Associations between loneliness and perceived social support and outcomes of mental health problems
Social isolation in mental health
PURPOSE: Social isolation and related concepts have been discussed increasingly in the field of mental health. Despite this, there is a lack of conceptual clarity and consistency in the definition and operationalisation of these terms. This review aimed to provide a clear framework for social isolation and related concepts, and to identify well-established measures in the field of mental health for each conceptual domain discussed. METHODS: We us…
A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials of peer support for people with severe mental illness
Ethnic variations in pathways to acute care and compulsory detention for women experiencing a mental health crisis
Background: Much recent debate on excess rates of compulsory detention and coercive routes to care has focused on young black men; evidence is less clear regarding ethnic variations among women and factors that may mediate these. Aim: To explore ethnic variations in compulsory detentions of women, and to explore the potential role of immediate pathways to admission and clinician-rated reasons for admission as mediators of these differences. Metho…
Muslim adolescent mental health in the UK
Over 1.5 million Muslims live in the UK, many in poor socioeconomic circumstances and facing social exclusion and discrimination, yet there is a paucity of research on Muslim mental health, in particular on adolescents. This study investigates whether psychological distress is greater in Muslim adolescents in comparison with their non-Muslim counterparts and whether distress is associated with level of ‘Westernisation’, sense of ‘Britishness’ and…

Views and Experiences of Employment among People with Psychosis
Background: Work is important for mental health but we are only just beginning to understand why so few people with psychosis in the UK work. Aims: To identify the opinions of a purposive sample of patients with psychosis on themes related to employment. Method: A thematic analysis of 15 semi-structured interviews with people with schizophrenia or bipolar affective disorder. Results: Participants identified a range of advantages to working but al…

Barriers to Accessing Hospice Services Before a Late Terminal Stage
Although hospice care has been available in the United States for over 25 years, the trend of late terminal access persists. Quality assessments and interventions that will continue through a year of bereavement are based on early interactions and the formation of caring and trusting bonds. A qualitative research study was conducted to identify and describe barriers to timely access as perceived by those involved in hospice care: caregivers, hosp…
