The Assisted Outpatient Treatment Program (AOT) is designed to provide increased support and services to at least 75 adult individuals with a serious mental illness per year in Baldwin County, Alabama. The target population is individuals who have a history of multiple involuntary psychiatric hospitalizations, frequent encounters with law enforcement which include arrests, limited social support, limited insight into their diagnosis, homelessness, poor physical healthcare access, and a history of failed treatment compliance with traditional outpatient services. Individual's enrolled in the AOT program will have a treatment team to closely monitor treatment compliance, provide extended hours service delivery, utilize existing services such as the Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team and Intensive Day Treatment, provide diagnosis and medication education, teach appropriate daily living skills, and link them to appropriate community resources. The goals of the AOT program are to 1.) Reduce the incidence and duration of psychiatric hospitalizations. Individuals enrolled will meet regularly with their treatment team, who will monitor symptoms, and teach effective symptom management. 2.) Reduce the interactions with the criminal justice system and maintain treatment within the least restrictive environment. By encouraging and monitoring treatment compliance and providing psycho-education, individuals enrolled in AOT will be less likely to have encounters with law enforcement. 3.) Reduce the incidence of homelessness for individuals with a serious mental illness. Individuals, who are identified as homeless will be linked to supportive housing services. 4.) Improve access and compliance with healthcare. Individuals involved in AOT will meet with a benefits specialist to assist in obtaining healthcare benefits, and be linked to an affordable local healthcare provider. 5.) Improve social outcomes for all participants.
