Background
- Adolescents discharged from inpatient psychiatric care are vulnerable to poor outcomes.
- Traditional post-discharge care often fails to address complex mental health needs.
- A new framework is needed to support adolescent mental health transitions.
Purpose Of The Study
- To explore the implementation of ecological resilience interventions for adolescents post-discharge.
- To propose a four-dimensional framework integrating family, school, community, and healthcare.
- To enhance adolescent mental health outcomes during critical transition periods.
Main Methods
- The study proposes a four-dimensional ecological resilience framework.
- This framework integrates family system support, school collaboration, community resource mobilization, and healthcare coordination.

- They also improve functional outcomes and decrease relapse rates.
Conclusions
- The four-dimensional ecological resilience framework offers a paradigm shift in mental health nursing.
- It provides evidence-based strategies for interconnected factors influencing adolescent mental health.
