Aims. Mental health policy internationally varies in its support for recovery. The aims of this study were to validate an existing conceptual framework and then characterise by country the distribution, scientific foundations and emphasis in published recovery conceptualisations.Methods. Update and modification of a previously published systematic review and narrative synthesis of recovery conceptualisations published in English.Results. A total of 7431 studies were identified and 429 full papers reviewed, from which 105 conceptualisations in 115 papers were included and quality assessed using established rating scales. Recovery conceptualisations were identified from 11 individual countries, with 95 (91%) published in English-speaking countries, primarily the USA (47%) and the UK (25%). The scientific foundation was primarily qualitative research (53%), non-systematic literature reviews (24%) and position papers (12%). The conceptual framework was validated with the 18 new papers. Across the different countries, there was a relatively similar distribution of codings for each of five key recovery processes.Conclusions. Recovery as currently conceptualised in English-language publications is primarily based on qualitative studies and position papers from English-speaking countries. The conceptual framework was valid, but the development of recovery conceptualisations using a broader range of research designs within other cultures and non-majority populations is a research priority.

“…Using a qualitative approach, Mezey et al (2010) found that the core recovery concepts of hope, selfacceptance and autonomy appeared to be less meaningful for individuals in a medium secure unit. Therefore much of the existing literature and research on recovery (largely focused on severe and enduring mental health problems) may be of limited value.…”

SummaryAlthough there is an increasing focus on recovery within mental health services, there has been limited exploration of the applicability of these principles within forensic services. The authors draw on their experiences within forensic rehabilitation services to discuss the potential obstacles to secure recovery, exploring the systemic and risk management aspects of such a setting as well as considering attachment theory within this context. Some proposals based on clinical experience are given on how such obstacles are faced and tackled.LEARNING OBJECTIVES•To understand the limitations of the recovery approach in forensic settings.•To understand how current risk assessment practice affects patients' autonomy and empowerment.•To understand how the attachment histories of patients in forensic services affect their ability to recover.

“…In order to promote socially inclusive outcomes, various skills can been identified from the literature: e.g. mapping community services (Stickley, 2005); counteracting social isolation (Tooth et al, 2003;Borg and Davidson, 2008;Dorer et al, 2009;Bradstreet and McBrierty, 2012;Edgley et al, 2012;Fieldhouse, 2012b;Tew et al, 2012;Killaspy et al, 2014); strategies for overcoming stigma within communities as well as amongst professionals (Martyn, 2002;Bertram and Stickley, 2005;Felton et al, 2009;Mezey et al, 2010;Quinn et al, 2011;Evans-Lacko et al, 2014;Killaspy et al, 2014).…”
