Mental health services in Denmark offer various rehabilitative treatment interventions to people with severe mental illness. Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) such as National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) ear acupuncture are used as rehabilitative interventions. We investigated the use of CAM in four psychiatric residential homes, and whether CAM supports residents' rehabilitation and personal recovery.
Residents in four selected residential homes participated in a questionnaire study, which elicited information on the use of CAM offered in a residential home setting. The study was conducted from February to November 2017. Recovery scores were assessed using the Mental Health Recovery Measure (MHRM).
Of 131 eligible respondents, 68 (52%) participated. CAM was used by 84% of the residents. NADA ear acupuncture (38%) and music therapy (37%) were the most commonly used types of CAM.
CAM is a commonly used rehabilitative intervention and more than 50% receiving treatment with CAM believed that it has supported their recovery process.

四家选定的疗养院的居民参加了一项问卷调查研究，该研究调查了在疗养院环境中提供的 CAM 使用情况。该研究于 2017 年 2 月至 11 月进行。使用心理健康康复衡量标准（MHRM）评估康复分数。
在 131 名符合条件的受访者中，有 68 人（52%）参与了调查。84%的居民使用了 CAM。NADA 耳针（38%）和音乐疗法（37%）是最常用的 CAM 类型。
CAM 是一种常用的康复干预措施，超过 50%接受 CAM 治疗的患者认为它支持了他们的康复过程。
