Question

What interventions are effective to support medicines adherence for people with complex psychosis in supported accommodation?

Any explanatory notes
(if applicable)
Adherence to medicines and helping people to manage their own medicines (recommendations 1.9.20 to 1.9.22)

Acknowledging the importance of self-management of medicines in people's recovery, the committee recommended opportunities to do this for those assessed as able to take part. Because of the lack of evidence on specific interventions to improve medicines adherence, they also made a research recommendation on medicine adherence for people in supported accommodation. They agreed that people in supported accommodation are likely to receive less support with taking medication than those in inpatient rehabilitation.
