Pascale Ferrari holds a joint position between the two entities. The purpose of anchoring the LER in the clinical world is to create a dynamic connection between clinical practice, research and teaching. This integration makes it possible also to quickly identify emerging issues that can be subjected to research or that might undergo developments.<\/p>\n<p><em>Community psychiatry is for people with severe mental disorders who respond only in part to medical treatment.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>These people often have complex healthcare problems that necessitate high-level nursing skills. These problems are often intertwined with social and economic difficulties necessitating a close interdisciplinary collaboration.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Strategies<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Embed research in a recovery model.<\/li>\n<li>Develop strong and innovative next-generation nurses in the field of psychiatric nursing care.<\/li>\n<li>Subject research results to peer review by submitting them for publication in international journals.<\/li>\n<li>Make results accessible to all professionals and the general public by publishing them in lay magazines.<\/li>\n<li>Integrate results in teaching and continuing professional development. The team is engaged in an ongoing pedagogical reflection to facilitate the transmission of knowledge and professional competencies.<\/li>\n<li>Collaborate closely with numerous stakeholders, including health and social service providers, institutions and regional associations.<\/li>\n<li>At the international level, pursue our partnerships with teams from France, Germany, Kosovo, Portugal, and India.<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrate over the longer term how developing competency in psychiatric care contributes to reduce health costs and how research on vulnerable populations contributes to develop the health of the community as a whole.<\/li>\n<li>Recovery from a mental disorder means leading a rich and full life predicated on hope and self-determination.
