Make a Difference. Every Day.

Advanced Psychiatric Care at Home, APIH, is a new form of care within specialist psychiatry and offers a flexible alternative to traditional psychiatric inpatient care. Cases come from both outpatient and inpatient services and are designed based on a fundamental assessment where a safety plan and care agreement are developed together with the patient. For many of our patients, the care period begins in one of our inpatient units. We then have the opportunity to transition to working with the patient in their home environment, with home visits as needed during the day, evening, and weekend. This means we can shorten the time spent in the unit and focus on empowering the patient in their home environment.

Our work is primarily conducted in the patients' homes, focusing on participation and empowerment for both the patient and their relatives. In this way, we can both catch the patient when they are struggling and work towards long-term improvement. APIH also has a respite place in one of our inpatient care units where patients who are struggling at home can come in for short stabilization. Research has begun to follow the development of the intervention.

Our team consists of nurses, nursing assistants, caregivers, occupational therapists, social workers, coordinators, and secretaries. Welcome to us!
