A Brief Case Management Intervention for People Involuntarily Admitted to a Psychiatric Hospital

"The brief case management intervention aims to support patients during the difficult phase of involuntary hospitalisation and reduce the impact of this short-term event on their long-term recovery process. The intervention starts during the hospital stay, at the latest one week after admission, and lasts for a maximum of one month after discharge. The intervention consists of five sessions, the order of which may vary according to the specific needs of the patient:~1. Personal account of involuntary hospitalisation and its consequences~2. Presentation of the personal recovery model and the tools to promote it and prevent coercion~3. Introduction to the personal recovery plan~4. Network meeting and discussion on dignity of risk~5. Personal recovery plan"
