The Evidence Based Practice of Individual Placement & Support (IPS) Supported Employment

Page 2: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

“Nothing that I have studied has the same kind of impact on people that

employment does. Medication, case management, and psychotherapies tend to produce a small impact on people’s overall adjustment. But the differences

are often striking and dramatic with employment”.

-Dr. Robert Drake, VCU Web Course Interview,

Supported Employment for Persons with Severe Mental Illness

3. Evidence-Based Practices based on rigorous research designs

Efficacy & effectiveness empirically validated

through a body of rigorous research replicated in a wide range of settings by multiple investigators

Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs)

Have undergone systematic review process using quality indicators to evaluate level of evidence.

Research-based:Efficacy and effectiveness empirically validatedthrough a body of rigorous research replicated in a wide range of settings by multiple investigators.

Standardized practice guidelines that describe critical ingredients of a well-defined and “manual-ized” service approach.

Developed by real practitioners Over 22 RCTs and several meta analysis all

support the same results-Improved Employment Outcomes

IPS is an Evidence-Based Practice (SAMSHA)

Page 7: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

IPS Model (Becker & Drake) researched and disseminated in the early 1990s with a few refinements.

IPS=EBP-SE

Becker & Drake: “A Working Life” (1991)

Findings~>

Produces superior employment outcomes when fidelity to the core practices is maintained.

There is no research evidence that anything “adverse” happens to employed persons with psychiatric disabilities. (Bond, 2001)

IPS research is robust & compelling

Clients Served and Working in the IPS Supported Employment Learning Community in the USA

11,159 people enrolled in IPS40% of those people worked in a competitive job during the quarter (Jan-March, 2014) 2013 Average across all quarters for = 43% (range 38%-55%).

Transformation to IPS Program (former EE SMI)

State Grant Application

Agencies must be CARF accredited and have PT contracts with VRS. This allows for agencies to use both VRS purchase of service funds for job placement time limited services and State grant fund dollars for extended employment supports (aka long term supports)

In SFY 14 & 15: the historic EE SMI program is transforming to IPS because of changes to the funding language for the program made in M.S. 268A. 13-14 made in 2013 Legislative Session

Page 10: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Historic “EE SMI” Projects are Transformed into IPS.

2013 Minnesota legislature (Minnesota Session Laws of 2013, Chapter 85, HF 729 for “d) grants to programs that provide employment support services to persons with mental illness under Minnesota Statutes, sections 268A.13 and 268A.14.”). These funds were intended to transform projects historically funded as EE SMI projects to the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) approach, also known as the evidence based practice of supported employment.

$1.55 million, plus $500,000 additional in one-time funds for SFY14-15.

The community support services program must be designed to improve the ability of adults with serious and persistent mental illness to:

(1) find and maintain competitive employment; . . .

The community support services program must also be designed to reduce the need for and use of more intensive, costly, or restrictive placements both in number of admissions and length of stay. . . .

1. IPS employment services are integrated with mental health treatment services

Eight Principles of IPS

Page 23: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Types: Under One Roof ~OR~ Part of Neighborhood

Components: Collaboration, not a Referral only, &

Not brokered services

Maximize Braided Funding with emphasis on Partnering

Employment is focus of collaboration-not a separate event

Formation of multi-disciplinary team structured to work together

Minnesota’s Models of Collaboration Key Components

Page 24: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Why Integrate? (Bond, 2001)

◦ Lower dropout rate for consumers/customers

◦ Better communication

◦ Clinicians get involved

◦ Clinical information incorporated into employment plan

Integration of employment services and MH treatment services

Page 25: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

What is a “ Treatment Team” ? Regular daily contact

Ideally, ES is co-located with MH Team

Meet as least weekly to discuss cases & share clinical information

Shared treatment plan decision making (consumer makes the final call)

ES coordinates employment plans with treatment team.

Ideally, one integrated case record (EHR)

2. Zero Exclusion: Every person who wants to work is

eligible

Principles of IPS

Page 27: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

SOC Employment

Pre-contemplation not thinking about work

Contemplation considering work

Preparation wants to start job search

Action job search/employment

Maintenance follow along supports

No Readiness = Individual’s Stages of Change

Page 28: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

3. Individual preferences are honored

Principles of IPS

Page 29: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Research shows people with serious mental illness generally have realistic ideas about what work

they can do, how many hours a week they can

work, and what work environments are good

or bad for them. (Becker& Drake, 2003)

Preferences Are Honored

Page 30: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

4. Rapid Engagement in Job SearchThe job search starts soon after a person expresses interest in working

Principles of IPS

Page 31: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Principles of IPS

Established based on person’s work preferences, face-to face with multiple visits

Focus on the employer’s needs Find jobs that they may not be

advertised Gather information about

upcoming job needs Periodic visits to employers—

Networking is how jobs are found!

5. Systematic Job DevelopmentEmployment specialists build relationships with employers

Page 32: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

"The first time you share tea with a Balti, you are a stranger.

The second time you take tea, you are an honored guest.

The third time you share a cup of tea, you become family..."

Systematic Job Development, cont’d

“Three Cups of Tea Approach”

Page 33: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Principles of IPS

6. Competitive jobs

are “The Goal”

Page 34: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Competitive EmploymentIPS definition

Pays at least minimum wage and the wage that others receive performing the same work,

In community settings alongside others without disabilities,

Open to anyone to apply for-not reserved for people with disabilities. 35

Page 35: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Principles of IPS

7. Benefits counseling is important

Personalized benefits counseling is provided

Page 36: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

Principles of IPS

8. Individualized job supports are Time-UNlimited

Page 37: Introductory Training 1 State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) May, 2014

People with severe mental illness can work in competitive employment

Programs following evidence-based principles of supported employment /IPS have better outcomes

Integration of employment and mental health is what makes IPS different than other approaches to supported employment

Programs must address financial and organizational barriers to be successful
