Piloting a community-academic partnership to deploy acceptance and commitment therapy via telehealth for caregivers of children with Angelman syndrome.

BACKGROUND: Caregivers of children with Angelman syndrome (AS) experience substantial stressors and often experience challenges accessing mental health providers with expertise in their unique family needs. PURPOSE: Community-academic partnerships have potential for ensuring such treatments are deployed in ways that maximally benefit the patient community. METHODS: This study examined the effectiveness of using a community-centered approach to training student clinicians to deploy telehealth acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with a pilot sample of caregivers (n = 17) with young children diagnosed with AS. Prior to deploying the treatment, clinicians received community-led training on the unique needs of AS families. RESULTS: Upon completing the abbreviated 9-week protocol, caregivers reported decreases in depression and parenting stress and increases in parenting confidence across treatment, supporting future testing of ACT for AS in the context of randomized control trials. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings support the feasibility of leveraging community-academic partnerships to co-train graduate-level clinicians to deliver ACT to specialized populations. This is also the first study to document preliminary effectiveness of telehealth ACT in supporting caregivers of children with AS.

Congregate living for the mentally ill: patients as tenants.

The authors describe an apartment-living project for chronic mental patients released from the Hillside Division of the Long Island Jewish-Hillside Medical Center. The apartments, which are rented by the hospital and sublet to the patients, are located in modern, well-maintained high-rise buildings within commuting distance from the hospital. To avoid creating a psychiatric ghetto, the project rents no more than two apartments in buildings of a hundred or more units. The hospital was able to rent the apartments by assuring the landlords that the hospital would be a financially responsible tenant and that staff would be in continuing contact with the patients, would be available to the landlords if problems arose, and would remove troublesome tenants. Some of the problems encountered by the patients in the program are described, as are guidelines for selecting those who have a reasonable chance of benefiting from such a program.

COPE: a systematic approach to moving chronic patients into the community.

COPE, a program designed to help chronic psychiatric patients make the transition from institutionalization to independent living in the community, emphasizes both in-hospital training the systematic aftercare as two points on a continuum of treatment. The program includes four training phases, with each phase based upon the skills acquired in the preceding one. The residents are thereby assured of having the necessary skills for progressing to more complex tasks as they proceed through the program. During the last phase, support by the mental health system is gradually replaced by help from community support systems.
