The Integration of Flexible Assertive Community Treatment with District Social Support Service Teams for Patients with Severe Mental Illness in the Netherlands: A Qualitative Analysis of Team Members' Experiences.
Article in International journal of integrated care. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: To promote recovery of individuals with severe mental illness and reduce fragmentation of care, network partners collaborated to develop a cross-domain, multi-agency approach by integrating Flexible Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) teams with municipal District Social Services (DSS), referred to as FACT+DSS teams. Aim: To describe how team members experienced the implementation of the FACT+DSS teams by team members, including perceived effects on various themes such as service delivery, network collaboration, the target population, and facilitators and barriers to implementation. Methods: A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews (N = 15) was conducted to explore the experiences of team members in two new FACT+DSS teams in the Netherlands using thematic analysis. Results: The FACT+DSS approach was experienced to improve service access, continuity of care, case-finding and client enrolment (care-avoiders), time efficiency for team members, and strengthen network collaboration. Identified barriers and facilitators underlined the importance of strong leadership, ownership, equality, direct relationships, and professional expertise. Conclusion: Participants experienced the FACT+DSS approach as a highly positive development, improving network collaboration and recovery-oriented care for clients. Our findings may contribute to the development and implementation of FACT (and related practices) as an integrated multi-agency approach.
