Presented November 9, 2011
View now
Join leaders from Hazelden and from the Dartmouth Psychiatric Research Center. The Illness Management and Recovery Program (IMR) is a comprehensive, evidence-based program that helps people with serious mental illness identify their personal recovery goals and learn strategies and skills for managing their illness and achieving their goals. IMR has been developed through years of research and the consensus of leading experts in mental health care along with clients and family members. The third edition of IMR, published by Hazelden, represents an extension and major revision of earlier editions of the program, based on current research and feedback from clients and practitioners. During the webinar, program authors Kim T. Mueser, Ph.D., and Susan Gingerich, MSW, will discuss how IMR brings current research to practice.
Participants in this webinar will be able to:
- Give an overview of the principles of IMR, including the central role of the stress-vulnerability model of mental illness
- Describe how clients are assisted in setting and attaining personal recovery goals in the Illness Management and Recovery program
- Describe the extensive enhancements to the third edition of IMR, including the handouts, practitioner guidelines and the implementation manual- all of which have made IMR significantly easier to implement for program administrators and practitioners.
- Explore the new module on Healthy Lifestyles, which can improve health outcomes for people with SMI and connects lifestyle to personal goals
- Find resources to help implement IMR, including training, discussion forums, newsletters and IMR updates
