80and cost concerns associated with the use of atypical antipsychotics, CalMEND hasbecome a comprehensive effort to redesign the service delivery system and processacross all sites and sett<strong>in</strong>gs that deliver mental health services.CalMEND has developed a process map (see Figure 2) that has become centralto communicat<strong>in</strong>g its work as well as organiz<strong>in</strong>g the project’s structure and furtherwork. Inspired by Gustafson’s (2007) work with addiction treatment and thevalue of understand<strong>in</strong>g exist<strong>in</strong>g processes to drive systems improvement, CalMENDat first tried to capture and map the service user’s experience of the exist<strong>in</strong>g system.This effort quickly collapsed <strong>in</strong> frustration with the recognition that there wasmore variance and perhaps even chaos than a consistent person-centered approachto consumers.In place of a map of the exist<strong>in</strong>g system, a framework was developed; that frameworkis shown <strong>in</strong> the visual diagram (Figure 2) of how a service delivery systemshould be organized and function <strong>in</strong> order to promote the IOM goals, honor recoveryvalues, ensure person-centered approaches, promote cultural competence, andsupport SDM. While the many lanes of the diagram are complex, a virtual walkthroughof the service-seek<strong>in</strong>g experience can identify both barriers and opportunitiesthat must be addressed. Barriers may <strong>in</strong>clude a lack of resources; issues relatedto f<strong>in</strong>anc<strong>in</strong>g a truly person-centered system; regulatory requirements; the knowledge,skills, and abilities of providers; and the needs and skill levels of consumers andfamily members for <strong>in</strong>formation, preparation, and support. At the same time, theprocess map helps to focus on those <strong>in</strong>novations, <strong>in</strong>terventions, resources, tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g,policy changes, and other factors that can be made to support implementation ofthe model.The process map shown <strong>in</strong> Figure 2 is organized <strong>in</strong>to seven phases (also called swimlanes), each represent<strong>in</strong>g a cluster of associated activities that moves from left toright, from access to community <strong>in</strong>tegration and self and/or community reliance. Thecompanion narrative for the flowchart that expla<strong>in</strong>s and describes the values, <strong>in</strong>tent,and concerns embedded <strong>in</strong> each lane, and the accompany<strong>in</strong>g performance goals andmeasures to support their implementation, are be<strong>in</strong>g vetted and pilot tested <strong>in</strong> severalCalifornia counties. The arrows <strong>in</strong> the figure depict the transition from one phaseto the next and reflect a logic model <strong>in</strong> which each step builds on the completion ofthe preced<strong>in</strong>g activity and becomes a virtual condition for mov<strong>in</strong>g forward. Activitiesand tasks are depicted by rectangles <strong>in</strong> the figure, and the diamonds symbolizedecision po<strong>in</strong>ts that, with the possible exception of access and/or eligibility, shouldbe consensus-based shared decisions. Backflow, or the need to repeat steps <strong>in</strong> theprocess, is identified by l<strong>in</strong>es and arrows.<strong>Shared</strong> <strong>Decision</strong>-<strong>Mak<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Mental</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Care</strong>: Practice, Research, and Future Directions
