Aim:
The review aimed to identify and explore the association of level of support received by people with severe mental illness in supported accommodation and participation.
Background: Employment is good for physical and mental health, however people with severe mental illness (SMI)
are often excluded from employment. Standard Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is effective in supporting
around 55% of people with SMI into employment or education. Current research considers enhancements to IPS to
improve outcomes for those requiring more complex interventions. Clinicians need to better understand who will
benefit from these enhanced IPS interventions. This study offers a new enhanced IPS intervention and an approach
to predicting who may achieve successful outcomes.
