Patients with serious mental illness (SMI) have markedly higher mortality rates than those without SMI. A large portion of this disparity is explained by higher rates of diabetes and cardiovascular illness, highlighting the need for people with diabetes and SMI to have access to the highest quality diabetes care. This article applies principles of patient-centered diabetes care to those with SMI, exploring a novel approach to diabetes care embedded within a community mental health setting.
患有严重精神疾病(SMI)的患者死亡率明显高于未患严重精神疾病的患者。这种差异很大一部分原因是糖尿病和心血管疾病的发病率较高,这凸显了糖尿病患者和严重精神疾病患者获得最高质量糖尿病护理的必要性。本文将以患者为中心的糖尿病护理原则应用于严重精神疾病患者,探索一种在社区心理健康环境中实施的新型糖尿病护理方法。
