Over the past few decades, severe mental illness (e.g., mania, schizophrenia, bipolar, severe depression) among long-term care residents has been steadily increasing.
Long-Term Care Residents with Severe Mental Illness (Saskatchewan, Canada) PSP
About the Long-Term Care Residents with Severe Mental Illness Priority Setting Partnership
Many unanswered questions remain with regards to the experiences of long-term care residents living with severe mental illness, and even less is known about the needs of long-term care residents living with severe mental illness within the Saskatchewan context.
The Long-Term Care Residents with Severe Mental Illness PSP launched in July 2023 and will work to bring Saskatchewan long-term care residents, their caregivers, and relevant care professionals together to identify evidence uncertainties for long-term care residents living with severe mental illness.
The Long-Term Care Residents with Severe Mental Illness PSP initial survey opened in January 2024.
