Improving the quality of care on psychiatric hospital rehabilitation wards. A controlled evaluation

A Lavender
Department of Psychology, Maidstone Hospital, Kent.

This study attempted to use feedback from the Model Standards Questionnaires (a series designed to measure the quality of care) to improve care on a psychiatric hospital's rehabilitation wards. Both a controlled and quasi-experimental design were used. The controlled design provided evidence that feedback from the Questionnaire concerned with the Individual Programmes of Treatment and Care led to improvements in these practices but not for the remaining three questionnaires. The quasi-experimental design indicated that the significant generalised improvement in care, over all questionnaires, was most likely due to the feedback.
