Proven guidance for creating effective person-centered plans that facilitate the recovery process for individuals with serious mental illness
Recent national and international mental health policy is promoting service delivery models that incorporate person-centered and recovery-oriented approaches, in which individuals are in the lead role, defining their own goals for their individualized recovery plans. Person-Centered Recovery Planner for Adults with Serious Mental Illness provides mental health practitioners with a useful resource to implement person-centered planning within a recovery framework when working with individuals with a serious mental illness.
Providing a succinct overview of the historical roots, philosophy, and practice of person-centered recovery, Person-Centered Recovery Planner for Adults with Serious Mental Illness is organized around the three stages of recovery?Beginnings, Moving Forward, and Leaving Your Practitioner Behind?yet still allows both the individual and practitioner to revisit any of the three stages during the ebb and flow of an individual?s recovery journey.
Sample recovery plans are included, covering the individual?s status, personal priorities, short-term objectives, and recovery steps, and are organized around common recovery goals including:
- Self-advocacy
- Family relationships
- Health and wellness
- Community involvement
- Stress management
- Relapse prevention
- Personal crisis planning
- Transportation
- Social relationships
- Meaningful activities

A companion Website provides all of the plans found in the book in an easily customizable word-processing format.
