“…Service use. A modified version of the service utilization section of the Uniform Client Data Instrument (UCDI) (Mulkern & Manderscheid, 1989) was used to collect information about service use. At threemonth intervals, case managers described type, amount, and source of service use for their clients.…”

A longitudinal study followed 55 homeless and severely mentally ill clients of a hostel outreach program to assess outcomes and their relationship to program elements. Results at 18-month follow-up indicated that, despite chronic histories of transiency and shelter use, housing stability had been achieved, and that initial gains in social functioning and symptom reduction had been increased. Development of a strong working alliance proved a key program element in the findings.

“…U nemployment is common for individuals with schizophrenia and other severe mental illnesses (SMIs), with rates of competitive employment typically below 20% (Jablensky et al, 1999;Mueser et al, 2001;Mulkern and Manderscheid, 1989). The low rate of educational attainment in SMI (Kessler et al, 1995) coupled with the high rate of unemployment contributes to a downward social and economic drift (Dohrenwend et al, 1992;Fox, 1990).…”

This study compared cognitive functioning and symptomatology of unemployed, supported employed, and independently employed clients with severe mental illness. Unemployed clients who wanted to work (N = 21) were compared with clients working in supported employment programs (N = 17) and clients who had been working independently for at least 1 year (N = 23) on a neuropsychological battery and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale. Clients who were unemployed had more severe symptoms and worse cognitive functioning on both positive and negative symptoms, and almost all domains of cognitive functioning. Supported employed clients had more severe psychotic symptoms and worse working memory than independently employed clients, but did not differ in negative symptoms or the other domains of cognitive functioning, including attention/concentration, psychomotor speed, verbal learning and memory, or executive functions. Finally, job complexity was correlated with impaired executive functions among clients working independently, but not in supported employment. Severe symptoms and cognitive impairment may interfere with the ability of some clients with severe mental illness to obtain competitive work. Supported employment programs appear to work by helping clients compensate for problematic symptoms and cognitive impairment and, to a lesser extent, by finding or developing environmental niches in which these impairments do not impede their ability to perform the necessary job tasks.

“…Ainsi, les gens atteints de troubles mentaux sévères ont en général un faible niveau d'éducation (Kessler, Foster, Saunders & Stang, 1995), un manque d'habiletés professionnelles (Alverson, Alverson & Drake, 2001) et ils sont, par conséquent, très souvent sans emploi (Jablensky et al, 1999 ;Mueser, Salyers & Mueser, 2001 ;Mulkern & Manderscheid, 1989). En effet, de nombreuses études observent que les difficultés que présentent ces personnes contribuent directement au faible taux d'employabilité (McGurk & Meltzer, 2000).…”
