on our experience in the MAP
5. Interim results
South Essex Partnership University
Foundation Trust
• Integrated care including mental health, learning
disability, social care, forensic and community
health services
• 200 locations across Bedfordshire, Essex, Luton
and Suffolk
• Employ approximately 7,000 people
• Serve a population of 2.5 million
• Annual turnover of approximately £350m
The “Munich Compliance Program”
• Dr Werner Kissling and colleagues,
Munich:
• Recognised significant relapse rates
in the year post discharge from
hospital
• Non-adherence to treatment a factor
• Developed a model to address nonadherence:
Munich Compliance Program developed to address
low adherence and high readmission rates
The impact of schizophrenia on healthcare budgets is substantial,
typically between 1.5 and 3% of total national healthcare expenditures.
THE SOLUTION
THE PROBLEMS
One year readmission
rates = 45%
>50% of patients
are non-compliant
Clinical studies have demonstrated that psycho-education
and wellness programmes significantly increase patient
compliance and outcomes*
Benefits of Psycho-education
Compliance programmes
are lacking
Annual costs of 5 billion
Euros in Germany
Frustrated patients,
payers, carers and
healthcare providers
Therapeutic alliance
Patient

The Joint Working Agreement &
funding arrangements
The “Maintaining Adherence Programme”
Objectives of the Project
• To partner with Janssen under a Joint Working
agreement*:
• To translate and modify an Adherence model
originally developed in Munich to a UK contextworking with Dr. Werner Kissling
• To test the model within SEPT, an innovative
mental health Trust in the south east of England.
• To produce an evaluation of the clinical and
economic benefits and outcomes
*Department of Health Joint working guidelines :
http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Publicationsandstatistics/Publications/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidance/DH_082370
Why is this approach being considered?
• Despite advances in psychopharmacology and
service innovations(UK National Service
Framework 1999), patients still relapse,
• Therefore, the aim is to:
• Improve the quality of care and outcomes for
people with diagnoses of schizophrenia,
schizoaffective and bi-polar disorders through
a focus on relapse prevention
• Improve productivity: reduce overall resource
usage in a climate of radical financial
pressures
Who is the MAP team?
• Consultant Psychiatrist (0,4 WTE)
• 3 WTE nursing staff (inc. 1 WTE team leader)
• 2 0,5 WTE occupational therapists
Supported by:
• Project management: SEPT/Janssen)
• IT support (ipad data collection/synching with
Trust data systems)
What interventions does the UK model
provide?
• “Differential Diagnosis of non-adherence”
o initial and 3 monthly formal review of risks associated
with poor adherence
• Psycho-education for service users:
o Schizophrenia & Schizoaffective Disorder + Bi Polar
Disorder
• Psycho-education for families & care givers
o Peer to peer Psycho-education
• Reminder Service (telephone/text)
• Shared Decision making approach
• Wellness Activities
A.Establishing the team
1. Identify the team
• Experience in working with schizophrenia and bipolar
disorder
• Not necessarily group facilitation nor education skills
2. Familiarise with content of modules
3. Challenge clinician beliefs and assumptions
• “Patients wont understand the content”
• “I don’t understand the scientific/psychological
models”
• “I have never facilitated a group”
cont…
4. Role play:
–
–
–
–
–
Being the facilitator
Learning how to facilitate in pairs
Being a member of a group
Enacting different scenarios or answering questions
Getting used to using flip chart, writing on white
board, operating the iPad
5. Operational structure
• Guidelines, paperwork, ipad data syching
B. Identifying the patients
5. Raising awareness:
• Designing flyers
• Road-shows on wards, at CMHTs
• Developing referral criteria: an admission to a
ward, episode under CRHTT in the past 3 years
6. Recruiting and consenting patients
7. Designing and equipping a “Recovery Lounge”
C. Creating a process
8. Creating a process:
a) Streaming
b) Setting up
c) Settling in
d) Structuring
e) Summation
f) Skills
a) Streaming
• Be aware of differing chronicity of illness and
functional/ cognitive abilities
• The presence of positive or negative symptoms
• Whether symptoms are controlled or not
• Differing social skills
• Use wellbeing activities or baseline assessments
to form an opinion (MOCA)
Negative symptoms/ lower Global
Assessment Functioning (GAF)
•
•
•
•
•
•
Smaller groups (up to 5)
Slower pace, more didactic, more repetition
Adapt video clips..often shorter
More active facilitation,
Encouragement and positive feedback
Take time to tease out symptoms and help
participant relate content to experience
Cont...
• May need to revisit content in one to ones
• E.g. Early warning signs identification and crisis
planning...
• Be sensitive to educational attainment
• Participants may lack basic reading and writing
skills
• May be ashamed, may not admit to deficits in a
group...check this out beforehand
Higher functioning/social skills
•
•
•
•
Up to 8 manageable
Often more engaged
Ask challenging questions
More likely to read materials and do inter-group
tasks
• As group matures, the group facilitation
becomes delegated: empathic, supportive and
encouraging of one another
b) Setting up
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Soft incentives add value
The "Recovery Lounge"
Comfortable chairs, couches, temperature
Refreshments, coffee, tea, water
Toilet access
iPad and TV connected
Name labels
Cont..
•
•
•
•
Participant and facilitator manuals
Pens and paper
Group "rules" and "expectations" displayed
Other resources: leaflets for support groups,
patient medication info leaflets,
Flip charts and whiteboards
•
•
•
•
Agenda and group structure
Open questions referencing manual content
Prompts for video and activities
Whiteboard for recording group answers and
using "own words"
• Ordering spontaneous responses into clear
domains e.g. side effect types or classes of
antipsychotics
Prepare for surprises
• Ideally two facilitators
• If required one may have to leave the group with
a participant if distressed to handover to another
team member to contain
• Aim not to stop the group
• Managing distress well sends message
facilitators can contain difficult scenarios- the
group is safe
c) Settling in
• Report to reception
• Customer care approach: our values
Positive hellos/goodbyes, common courtesies,
keeping promises, active listening
•
•
•
•
Offer refreshments
Make introductions
Remind each other of names
Facilitators support informal social interactions
d) Structuring/timing
1. "Welcome..how are you?"
a. Needs to be time limited( especially in Bipolar
groups)
2.
3.
4.
5.
Recap:"what did we learn last week?"
"Any questions"
Make time to review any homework
Introduce new topic: aim to use open questions
to gauge knowledge of the group
For example:
• What medications do you know?
– Use whiteboard to capture responses
• Facilitate as much from the group as possible.
• Arrange information into understandable groups
like:
– Antipsychotics, antidepressants, side effect
medication
• Group quite possibly has experience of many
different types
Continued...
•
•
•
•
Get the group to do the work
Fill in the gaps at the end
Encourage participation
Acknowledge the lived experience and
knowledge of the group
• Move away from didactic stance to collaborative
participation
Continued ...
6. Review, recap and summarize
a) Consolidate using participant language if possible
7. Questions and answers
8. Hand out materials…homework
9. Feedback:
"How do you think the group went?"
"Did we pitch it at the right level?"
"What could we do better?"
e)Summation
• Process notes
• Signposting as required:
–
–
–
–
To consultant clinic
To review or booster sessions
Shared decision making session
One to one work on relapse signatures/ crisis
planning

Staff feedback
• Staff interview participants were overwhelmingly positive
about the MAP Program, describing many benefits from
it for both patients and staff. Where potential
improvements were identified, these related mainly to
support for the service; for administrative tasks and for
appropriate referral of patients into and onward from the
Program, and not to changes needed in the Program
itself. However there was great willingness to learn from
continuing feedback from patients and carers, to improve
the Program if necessary.
Summary
• MAP interventions in addition to usual care
plan
• Psycho-education, reminder service,
wellbeing components, SDM, rapid access
to consultant if required
• 12 month Qualitative and economic
evaluation promising
• Awaiting final evaluation
