Current Status | Demonstration sites | NLSH
| In Bodø the demonstration site is localised at Salten Psychiatric Centre which is a District Psychiatric Centre, which again is administratively a part of Nordland Hospital. | ||
| New PDP course [29.07.2008] Bodø held a new introductory course in the use of the Personal Development Plan (PDP) for users. |
||
| New Training in the autumn [01.08.2008] The users will be starting a new training in the autumn, "User Research". 12 of the users have already registered for the training. Like the previous training programs the trainers are one user and one member of staff. This combination has proved very successful and fruitful. Fruitful in the sense that user and professional have collaborated on delivering the training. |
||
Training very popular The "Powerful Voices" had 10 users particpating and on of the things they worked on as a group exerices was to lobby the hospital administration to have the hospital logo removed from the Rehabilitation Team's cars. The users did not like having home visits of the team, parking their car with the logo on outside their houses. They were successful in getting this removed. The "Social Network" training was equally popular and an user, a woman aged 30, said this: Photos from the training in Bodø. Click on the individual image to view |
||
| Local Advisory Group Established [06.06.2007] Very soon after the users were recruited, they were invited to a general information meeting about the project and the training we intended to run. We also decided that this group was to be the User Advisory Group for the project in Bodø. |
||
| Recruited Users The users were initially recruited via the Rehabilitation Team at the centre, which is run on clinical case management principles. Afterwards the net was widen and information about the project was used at both special meetings with users and at local seminars and conferences.
