Project Type(s):
Population Health/Implementation

We will analyze people’s stories about psychiatric hospitalization, interview people with experiences surrounding psychiatric hospitalization, and co-design with them to identify alternative approaches that would help people care for themselves as they transition out of the hospital. We will build upon our prior work on understanding patients’ challenges and co-designing new systems that help patients transition from psychiatric hospitalizationto self-management. In particular, we will focus on how we could redesign psychiatric hospital systems with the people who have experienced them, identifying patient insights on the knowledge, resources, and self-efficacy they need to help them return to the community.
