[Providing and maintaining jobs for psychiatric patients--how can it be done?]
Abstract
An innovative project has produced some good results in the placement of psychically disabled people in the general labour market. The "foster colleague model" provides support for the client directly at her or his place of work by a specially trained member of company staff (the "foster colleague"). This method has so far managed to provide 18 formerly psychically ill people with employment and helped to keep them in work.
