Do systematic multiprofessional rehabilitation group meetings improve efficiency in vocational rehabilitation?

PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to investigate differences in the effects on employment between clients whose rehabilitation was coordinated in systematic multiprofessional rehabilitation group meetings and clients whose rehabilitation was coordinated in the "conventional" way. METHOD: The study was based on a sample of 51 individuals who received systematic group meeting coordination. All individuals in the study group were unemployed before the rehabilitation intervention. Two different comparison groups were chosen: one at a local level and another at a national level. The groups were matched on an individual level based on records obtained from The National Labour Market Board (AMS) and The National Social Insurance Board (RFV). The data were analysed by an analysis of variance (ANOVA) for repeated measures for binary responses. RESULTS: 68.6% in the study group and 49% in both the local comparison group and national group had some form of employment 24 months after rehabilitation. The ANOVA analyses (in terms of odds ratio) found that when all measurement points (6, 12 and 24 months after the rehabilitation) were included in the calculations that there was twice as high a chance of becoming employed after having received rehabilitation services through the multiprofessional group than for both comparison groups. The majority of employment in all the groups was associated with some form of subsidy or sheltered employment.

[Criteria for the social and vocational prognosis in pronounced mental retardation].

Overall 370 mentally retarded persons (aged 15 to 35 years) staying at the specialized institutions of the RSFSR Ministry of Social Welfare were examined. The degree of the intellectual defect, concomitant psychopathological disorders, correlations between the degree of the intellectual defect and the ability for mastering labour and social skills, the conditions of living and training of the patients were accepted as criteria for social and labour prediction. Statistically significant differences were established in the values of integrative mark estimations of patients with pronounced debility, of those with mild, medium and profound imbecility. Significant correlations were revealed between the degree of mental retardation, on the one hand, and the level of mastering labour skills and social experience, on the other one. In the patients with pronounced debility, the psychopathlike syndrome was among concomitant psychopathological disorders producing a significant effect on social and labour prognosis. The relationship was established between the magnitude of the integrative assessment of the degree of the intellectual defect and realization of potential capacities of mentally retarded persons.
