Abstract:
The emerging concept of recovery in mental health is often only loosely defined, but appears to be influenced more by specific human values and beliefs, than scientific research and 'evidence'. As a contribution to the further development of the philosophical basis of the concept of recovery, this paper reviews the discrete assumptions of the Tidal Model, describes the development of the Model's value base -- the 10 Commitments -- and illustrates the 20 Tidal Competencies, which aim to generate practice-based evidence for the process of recovery.
