Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an immediate post hospitalization follow-up intervention on the rehospitalization rates of consumers of public mental health services with a classical experimental design. The intervention involves reinforcing the discharge plan, providing psychoeducation, encouraging medication adherence, and triaging each discharged client for additional needs.
