Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

地域で生活し精神科デイケアに通所する精神障害者に対し，本研究で明らかとなったリカバリー志向型支援モデルに基づいた支援が提供されることで，当事者がより明確に目的や目標をもって精神科デイケアに通所し，自己決定などリカバリーが促進されるとともに，支援者もリカバリーを志向した意図的な関わりが可能となると考えられる．また，精神科デイケアは医療と地域生活との結節点であることから，本研究で得られた知見は，地域で生活する精神障害者のリカバリーを促進する上で，他の支援機関への波及効果も期待でき，地域包括ケアの推進に貢献できる．
