Quality of life of people with psychiatric disabilities 1 and 3 years after discharge from hospital.

G J Gerber1, G E Coleman, L Johnston, H G Lafave.   

Abstract

We interviewed 43 clients 1 and 3 years following discharge from a psychiatric rehabilitation programme. The Clients' Quality of Life Interview and Uniform Client Data Instrument examined several domains of clients' life situations. Quality of life measures of living situation, social and community living skills, and recreation improved from 1988 to 1990, and other measures were stable. Findings suggest that clients' living circumstances and functioning continue to improve in the 3 years following discharge from psychiatric hospital.
