Objective:
The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of implementing a recovery education program in a Veterans Affairs medical center.
Method:
This case study describes development and implementation of a mental health and wellness curriculum offered through a centralized location. Referral and utilization data (n = 781) from the first 18 months of implementation were used to evaluate feasibility.
Findings:
Access to programming with zero exclusion was prioritized and average time from referral to enrollment was 9.6 days. Fifty-six percent of veterans admitted to mental health services during the 18-month evaluation period were referred to the program, and this level of utilization continued to be sustained. A broad range of classes was available. Opportunities to change classes as recovery goals evolved was encouraged and data indicate veterans actively tailored their individual recovery curriculum.
Conclusions And Implications For Practice:
Educational recovery programming was easily incorporated into a large integrated health facility, was well received, and offered greater opportunity for choice and individualization of recovery curriculum. (PsycINFO Database Record
