Development of a supported living service for people with enduring mental illness
Abstract
A NETWORK OF COMMUNITY‐based service for people in Fareham and Gosport with enduring mental illness was developed by Southern Focus Trust ‐ formerly the Portsmouth Housing Trust. The experience of setting up this supported living service has demonstrated how flexibility and open working with clients have been able to meet the changing needs of people with enduring mental illness. The flexibility of the service has meant that residents have been able to remain in their home as their needs change and hospital admission is prevented.
