“…This has been rightly highlighted as a weakness of REFOCUS, 39 and indeed it has been suggested that ‘the largest contribution by mental health services to supporting recovery may come from enabling the empowerment of patients to experience the full entitlements of citizenship’ (p. 52). 40 There is an urgent need for new and evaluated approaches to increasing social cohesion and social capital. 41…”

“…There has been a general movement from using service data (e.g., readmission rates) towards clinical outcomes (e.g., symptomatology) and more recently towards health‐related quality of life as clinical endpoints in outcomes research. However, the result is that the evidence base remains poor for interventions targeting some important outcome domains, such as hope and empowerment . Explicitly identifying, with a rationale, the choice of outcome domain will increase theoretical coherence between intervention and outcome.…”

Assessing the outcomes of interventions in mental health care is both important and challenging. The aim of this paper is to advance the field of outcomes research by proposing a taxonomy of the decisions that clinicians and researchers need to consider when evaluating outcomes. Our taxonomy has eight components, framed as decisions: Whose outcome will be considered? Which scientific stage is being investigated? What outcome domain(s) matter? What level of assessment will be used? Will clinical and/or recovery outcomes be assessed? Whose perspective will be considered? Will deficits and/or strengths be the focus? Will invariant or individualized measures be preferred? We propose a future focus on understanding what matters most to people using mental health services, and on the use of measures rated by service users as the primary approach to evaluating outcome.

“…Moreover, risk and recovery go hand-in-hand. Slade et al ( 2013 , p. 52) agree and argue that: “the largest contribution by mental health services to supporting recovery may come from enabling the empowerment of patients to experience the full entitlements of citizenship”.…”

Individuals with severe mental illness have a significant risk of (anticipated) discrimination and (criminal) victimisation, which is not structurally and systematically addressed by mental health practitioners. The aim of this study was to develop and pilot an intervention which supports professionals to address victimisation and its consequences, in order to reinforce safe social participation and improve recovery. Following the rehabilitation and positive risk management literature, in addition to current practice, intervention components were developed in two focus groups and four subsequent expert meetings. The intervention was piloted in two outpatient teams before being finalised. The Victoria intervention includes positive risk management, focusing on clients’ narratives and strengths, and awareness of unsafe (home) environments: it comprises four steps: exploring issues with social participation, analysing victimisation experiences, clarifying the context of these experiences, and determining future steps, including victimisation-sensitive rehabilitation planning and optional trauma treatment. Future research should further test this intervention.
