Overview

Empower self-determination through inclusion, equity, and community collaboration with this invaluable resource on shared decision making. This book is a comprehensive guide to shared decision making (SDM), which is both a treatment philosophy and a well-developed clinical approach that clarifies responsibilities and tasks between patients with serious mental illness, providers, families, and other stakeholders, framing a person’s pursuit of health and life goals in terms of partnership. Patrick Corrigan weaves together general concepts of self-determination with the details of actually doing SDM. The chapters outline basic SDM principles within social and psychological contexts, taking into consideration variances related to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility and examining the unique intersections of the individual identity, with an emphasis on race and ethnicity, culture, age, and poverty. These principles are then put into action with concrete, step-by-step guidance on doing SDM, complete with worksheets and case examples. Shared Decision Making and Serious Mental Illness examines SDM's place in the evolution of a recovery-oriented care system from resistance and compliance to self-determination. It reviews principles and practices of community-based participatory research that are relevant to SDM, looking ahead to the future of SDM and serious mental illness.
