- Abstract
This report describes the application of an evidence-based practice fidelity measure to monitor the effectiveness of an expanding supported employment program for young adults with first episode psychosis. An occupational therapist working within a New Zealand community mental health service in Wellington expanded the program to several new sites in 2007. Both low and high scoring fidelity items helped identify practical ways to further develop evidence-based practices at each site. These early management experiences add to international knowledge on how best to implement evidence-based supported employment for people with serious mental illness.
