Case managers improved patient mental health outcomes through a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) training program. The 26-week in-service training enabled them to autonomously treat serious mental illness with significant symptom improvement.

Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Nursing
  • Psychotherapy Training
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • In-service training programs are crucial for equipping healthcare professionals with specialized therapeutic skills.
  • Nursing case managers play a vital role in managing patients with serious mental illness.
  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach for treating various mental health conditions.

Observation:

  • A 26-week in-service program was implemented for four nursing case managers to develop basic CBT skills.
  • The training involved approximately 5 hours per week, including supervised therapy with patients diagnosed with serious mental illness.
  • Case managers treated an average of four patients during the supervised training period.

Findings:

  • Patients experienced significant symptom improvement after an average of fewer than 12 one-hour CBT sessions.
