Introduction
With the increasing enthusiasm to provide cognitive remediation (CR) as an evidence-based practice, questions arise as to what is involved in implementing CR in a large system of care. This article describes the first statewide implementation of CR in the USA, with the goal of documenting the implementation issues that care providers are likely to face when bringing CR services to their patients.
MethodsIn 2014, the New York State Office of Mental Health set up a Cognitive Health Service that could be implemented throughout the state-operated system of care. This service was intended to broadly address cognitive health, to assure that the cognitive deficits commonly associated with psychiatric illnesses are recognized and addressed, and that cognitive health is embedded in the vocabulary of wellness. It involved creating a mechanism to train staff to recognize how cognitive health could be prioritized in treatment planning as well as implementing CR in state-operated adult outpatient psychiatry clinics.
ResultsBy 2017, CR was available at clinics serving people with serious mental illness in 13 of 16 adult Psychiatric Centers, located in rural and urban settings throughout New York state. The embedded quality assurance program evaluation tools indicated that CR was acceptable, sustainable, and effective.
ConclusionsCognitive remediation can be feasibly implemented in large systems of care that provide a multilevel system of supports, a training program that educates broadly about cognitive health and specifically about the delivery of CR, and embedded, ongoing program evaluation that is linked to staff supervision.

Summary
Introduction
Psychiatric rehabilitation has global relevance (Rossler, 2006). Our aim in this chapter is to offer an account of key trends in policy and practice internationally. Providing a brief but accurate account of the literature is fraught with difficulty. The day-to-day working of mental health services is dependent on a host of country-specific factors relating to the funding and organisation of health and social care, mental health legislation and policy, and the social and cultural context. (The significance of culture is discussed in detail in Chapter 28, ‘Psychosocial rehabilitation across culture’, which focuses on rehabilitation in low- and middle-income countries.) The lack of reliable data makes comparison between countries very difficult, as does the enormous disparity in the resources available to mental health services, even within a generally wealthy region such as Europe (Muijen, 2008; World Health Organization Mental Health Europe, 2008).
Much of what is written about rehabilitation and recovery, particularly at the policy level, comes across as rather abstract – full of positive sentiments but short on practicalities. To counteract this we provide some comparative data on key components of rehabilitative mental healthcare and end with a description of a large-scale service change in New York State that two of us (LIS and ME) have been involved in.
Core concepts in rehabilitation and recovery
There is a general consensus that psychiatric or psychosocial rehabilitation has as its goal helping people experiencing persistent and severe mental illness to live good lives as independently as possible (Rossler, 2006). In the past, rehabilitation was often seen as a stand-alone process offering selected technical interventions to people, either living within the traditional mental hospital or in the community, who were ‘rehabilitation ready’. A more contemporary understanding sees rehabilitation as embedded within the fabric of health and social care services that work with the individual, his or her social network and the wider social context, with an overarching aim of promoting social inclusion (Barbato, 2006). Rehabilitation and recovery are, in this sense, the business of all mental healthcare, although in practice specific rehabilitation services tend to become involved when the patient's journey to social inclusion has become stuck.

Objective:
Using data from a multi-site study of parent–child symptom reporting concordance, this secondary analysis explored the role of parent self-efficacy related to pain management for seriously ill school-age children and adolescents.
Method:In the initial study, 50 children and adolescents who were expected to survive 3 years or less were recruited along with their parent/primary caregiver. Parent self-report data were used in this secondary analysis to describe parent self-efficacy for managing their child's pain, caregiver strain, mood states, and perception of the child's pain; to explore relationships among these variables; and to determine predictors of greater self-efficacy.
Results:Parents expressed a wide range of self-efficacy levels (Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale; possible range 10–100, mean 76.2, SD 14.7) and higher levels on average than reported previously by family caregivers of adult patients. Caregiver Strain Index scores were markedly high (possible range 0–13, mean 8.1, SD 3.8) and inversely correlated with self-efficacy (r = −0.44, p = 0.001). On the Profile of Mood States parents reported more negative moods (t = 4.0, p < 0.001) and less vigor (t = −5.0, p < 0.001) than adults in a normative sample, yet vigor rather than mood disturbance predicted self-efficacy. With the exception of child age, self-efficacy was not associated with demographics (child gender, ethnicity, household income, parent age, education, family size) or with the diagnostic groups (primarily cardiac and oncologic) comprising the sample. Younger child age, less caregiver strain, more parent vigor, and parent perception that child is without pain predicted more than half of the variance in parent self-efficacy (R2 = 0.51).
Significance of results:Findings advance knowledge of parent self-efficacy in managing the pain of a child with life-threatening illness. Results can be used to design supportive interventions enhancing parents’ caregiving roles during their child's last stages of life.
