Download or read book A Working Life for People with Severe Mental Illness written by Deborah R. Becker and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-06-12 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional approaches to vocational rehabilitation, such as skills training classes, job clubs, and sheltered employment, have not been successful in helping people with severe mental illness gain competitive employment. Supported employment, in which clients are placed in jobs and then trained by on-site coaches, is a radically new conceptual approach to vocational rehabilitation designed for people with developmental disabilities. The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) method utilizes the supported employment concept, but modifies it for use with the severely mentally ill. It is the only approach that has a strong empirical research base: rates of competitive employment are 40% or more in IPS programs, compared to 15% in traditional mental health programs. The third volume in the Innovations in Practice and Service Delivery with Vulnerable Populations series, this will be extremely useful to students in psychiatric rehabilitation programs and social work classes dealing with the severely mentally ill, as well as to practitioners in the field.

Book excerpt: Au cours des 15 dernières années, il a été possible de constater le développement des opportunités d'intégration au travail pour les personnes ayant une déficience intellectuelle ou une déficience du développement. Les auteurs proposent un regard analytique de cette intégration au travail, examinent le volume qu'elle représente dans la situation de l'emploi, les résultats de cette intégration versus les centres de travail adapté ainsi que les orientations à prendre pour les prochaines années en ce qui a trait à l'intégration au travail des personnes ayant une déficience intellectuelle. Historiquement, la réadaptation des personnes ayant une déficience intellectuelle a été perçue comme un continuum de services, faisant en sorte que l'employabilité de l'individu rencontrant des difficultés, se forgeait au fur et à mesure des différentes étapes de la progression de l'intégration. À partir d'aptitudes spécifiques, l'individu franchissait des étapes, et passait à des niveaux supérieurs jusqu'à ce qu'il soit embauché. Cependant, plusieurs facteurs entrent maintenant en ligne de compte comme les aspects sociaux de la formation à l'emploi, certaines difficultés pour l'individu ayant une déficience intellectuelle de faire la généralisation entre différents postes de travail ou environnement de travail, les fluctuations de l'économie et de ses répercussions sur l'emploi ainsi que de le développement de nouveaux secteurs d'activités délaissant le domaine manufacturier pour le domaine des services.
