To inform efforts to improve physical health care for adults with serious mental illness, this study examines predictors of provision and receipt of physical health services in freestanding mental health clinics in New York state. The number of services provided over the initial 12-months of implementation varied across clinics from 0 to 1407. Receipt of services was associated with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, frequent mental and physical health visits in the prior year, and prescription of antipsychotic medications. Additional support may also be needed to enable clinics to target patients without established patterns of frequent mental health or medical visits.
为了为患有严重精神疾病的成年人改善身体健康护理工作提供信息,本研究考察了在纽约州独立心理健康诊所中提供和接受身体健康服务的预测因素。在实施的最初 12 个月内,各诊所提供的服务数量从 0 到 1407 不等。接受服务与精神分裂症诊断、前一年频繁的精神和身体健康就诊以及抗精神病药物的处方有关。可能还需要额外的支持,以使诊所能够针对那些没有固定的频繁精神健康或医疗就诊模式的患者。
