abstract: 'Individuals with serious mental illness are at increased risk of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
developing secondary physical illnesses because of lifestyle and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
psychiatric treatment-related factors. Many individuals with mental
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
illness participate in primary care clinics, such as Placer County
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Community Clinic (PCCC), which provides primary care and medication-only
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
psychiatric services to low-income county residents. This qualitative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study describes an augmented care program provided to this population at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PCCC and explores participant experiences with that program. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
augmented program consisted of a full-time social worker and part-time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
registered nurse working as a team to coordinate care between providers,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and provide psychosocial education and illness management support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previous studies have demonstrated that similar programs result in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
improved clinical outcomes for people with mental illness but have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
largely not included perspectives of participants in these pilot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
programs. This article includes participant reports about medical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
service needs, barriers, and beneficial elements of the augmented
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
program. Medical service needs included the need to provide input in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
treatment and to be personally valued. Barriers ranged from doubts about
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
provider qualifications to concerns about medication. Elements of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
augmented care program that participants found beneficial were those
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
involving care coordination, social support, and weight management
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
support.'
