“…At a service level, Nicholls and Goossens (2017) offer ten dimensions that characterize high-quality forensic services. They suggest that forensic services should be: well-defined and legally defensible, patient-centred, recovery-oriented, holistic, individualistic, traumainformed, effective, safe, efficient, innovative and responsive.…”

“…They suggest that forensic services should be: well-defined and legally defensible, patient-centred, recovery-oriented, holistic, individualistic, traumainformed, effective, safe, efficient, innovative and responsive. Working towards integrating these facets into forensic mental health services is expected to, in part, lead to high quality services (Nicholls and Goossens, 2017).…”

“…Although all three of these models were created with a variety of literature in mind, including the ones mentioned in the background section, the work of Nicholls and Goossens (2017) and Glorney et al (2010) heavily influenced the members of this working group. Moreover, the team found it important to include Bonta et al's (2014) "central eight" within the models.…”

“…The team believed most of the "Core Dimensions of High-Quality Forensic Services" identified by Nicholls and Goossens (2017) were fundamental and should be included in a service delivery model adapted to the local needs of persons found UST or NCRMD. As such, the team included 11 principles above the model signifying that every service developed to meet the needs of persons found UST or NCRMD should take these principles into consideration.…”

“…They should be "individualized" to meet the unique needs of each person found UST or NCRMD. Finally, the services should be "efficient", that is to say they should be provided timely and in an economic way (Nicholls and Goossens, 2017).…”

Purpose Forensic mental health programs (FMHPs) in Ontario, Canada provide rehabilitation and supervision services. However, models available to guide their delivery are primarily adapted from fields outside of forensic mental health. To partially fill this gap, this paper aims to provide a general review of the process a multi-professional team took to develop the Integrated Forensic Program [IFP]-Ottawa Model of Risk Management & Recovery. Design/methodology/approach Working groups were initiated to identify the needs of patients in their local setting, conduct a literature review on care delivery models in forensic mental health and build a service delivery model specific to forensic mental health. Findings The resulting model places patient engagement at its centre and encompasses eight domains of need that contribute towards the patient’s recovery and the management of the safety risk they pose to the public, namely, the basic needs, diversity and spirituality, social, occupational, psychological, substance use, physical health and mental health domains. Practical implications The IFP-Ottawa Model of Risk Management & Recovery provides a framework to which therapeutic group services for persons in FMHPs can be aligned. Originality/value The leadership teams in FMHPs could use this framework and the method used for its development to ensure group services provided at their FMHPs are evidence-informed and coincide with their patients’ specific needs.
