Description |
In the context of mental health services, social inclusion is being promoted as a top priority, integral to recovery and good practice. What is less clear in the literature is what the process means for clinicians and service users. In this article we make the process more explicit by describing, from both a service user and clinical perspective, what social inclusion means and how it can be facilitated effectively. We go on to explore and describe the process of facilitating and measuring social inclusion as a healthcare intervention, and how the use of person centred practice and evaluation, supports people to achieve personal goals, participate in meaningful community based activity and improve their overall quality of life. We conclude by suggesting that social inclusion interventions should be the core business of mental health services and a top priority.
