Peer Support Workers (PSWs) hold 1-2 meetings with clients (30-60 minutes) in the 2-week period before they are discharged from hospital. They describe the program and undertake an assessment. From this assessment the two core components of the intervention are initiated. First, a "welcome basket" is created for the client. The PSW also forms a plan with the client about tours of their neighbourhood to familiarize them with the local resources and support them in building confidence in accessing their local communities. These activities will take place through weekly visits (2 hours/visit) in the 4 weeks immediately following discharge. WB will be provided in combination with core Cognitive Adaptation Training (CAT) compensatory interventions.

Treatment as usual (TAU) involves the typical discharge procedures for clients from Unit 2, Forensic and EPU wards at CAMH. It includes referral to outpatient psychiatric services and relevant community supports with the transition facilitated by inpatient social work staff.

The brief version of the Welcome Basket (WBbr) was developed based upon the observation in feasibility testing that for some participants much of the benefit of this approach appeared to be centred upon the visits immediately prior and subsequent to discharge. In the WBbr the same core components will be present, albeit in an abbreviated form with one 30-60 minute visit in the week prior to discharge and a single, 3-hour visit in the week subsequent to discharge in which the welcome basket would be delivered, core CAT strategies discussed and implemented, and some basic orientation to community resources undertaken. This brief version of the intervention has not to date been studied.

Peer Support Workers (PSWs) hold 1-2 meetings with clients (30-60 minutes) in the 2-week period before they are discharged from hospital. They describe the program and undertake an assessment. From this assessment the two core components of the intervention are initiated. First, a "welcome basket" is created for the client. The PSW also forms a plan with the client about tours of their neighbourhood to familiarize them with the local resources and support them in building confidence in accessing their local communities. These activities will take place through weekly visits (2 hours/visit) in the 4 weeks immediately following discharge. WB will be provided in combination with core Cognitive Adaptation Training (CAT) compensatory interventions.
