Caring for individuals with severe and persistent mental illness: the contributions and challenges of residential
Abstract:
The challenge of helping individuals with mental illness live more independently and purposefully within the community warrants a collaborative system of caregiving between professional and paraprofessional caregivers. Residential community support aides are a crucial component of this system of care. However, current investigation of their daily work experiences is lacking. In this study, a team of researchers, employing an interpretive phenomenological approach, analyzed data from in-depth, individual interviews with 5 residential community support aides and identified a constitutive pattern: the teacher as learner. Examination of this pattern and its associated themes will identify those clinical practices that should be preserved and those that are in need of change.
