Abstract
The research study at the center of this work focuses on Mind-Body Medicine strategies to improve clinical outcomes in inpatient psychiatry settings. This Book is not intended to be a list of specific therapeutic recommendations for specific diagnosis, but it is rather a thorough description of how mind-body medicine can be successfully applied, from a therapeutic, as well as from an organizational, cost-effective analysis viewpoint, to psychiatric treatment. In this sense, this book serves as a guide for professionals and instructions both in the private and public sphere, to learn effective treatment and management strategies. This comparative analysis is purposely time-constrained, as it covers a well-defined period in the public University Hospital described, thus allowing for appropriate comparison of “what worked and what did not work—but should have” before, during, and after the organizational and clinical implementations hereby discussed. Specific parameters of references have also been provided, to help the reader understand the incredible advancements that had been made to the therapeutic offerings as a result of this research and the related work of the Group Therapy Department1. More specifically, multidisciplinary approaches in the areas of clinical psychology and behavioral medicine have been utilized to better support the healing process and treatment plans for patients with multiple mental health diagnosis. This research consists of a meta-analysis of previously unpublished data collected over a period of 5 years at the University of Vermont Medical Center (UVMMC)—Inpatient Psychiatry Unit, divided into three main areas: a) Individual and Group Therapy Sessions, b) Exercise Groups, and c) Group Attendance and Session Standardization. Moreover, the research is further subdivided into the following categories: Individual and Group Psychotherapy Sessions, including but not limited to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic-Behavioral Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy; Multidisciplinary approaches in Integrative vs. Complementary and Alternative Medicine, including but not limited to Meditation, Mindfulness, Relaxation, Art Therapy, Music Therapy, and Dance-Movement Therapy; Exercise groups focused on gentle movement techniques, T’ai Chi Chuan, and Yoga; Improvement of therapeutic attendance via standardization and optimization of session offerings and weekly schedules; Statistical analysis of patients’ feedback via survey and questionnaires addressing the multidisciplinary treatment team (Psychiatrists, Psychotherapists, Registered Nurses, and Social Workers) and other staff members (Mental Health Technicians, Licensed Practical Nurses, and Licensed Nurse Assistants); Intradepartmental strategies for therapeutic improvement, including Productivity and Cost-benefit analysis,
