Mental Health

Have you or someone you know well been affected by severe mental illness? Your input is needed on a review considering psychoeducation for parents of people with severe mental illness.

Skills / interests: Patient and public input

Would you be interested in helping us with this article focused on psychoeducation for parents of people with severe mental illness? I am looking for a consumer who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review “Psychoeducation for the parents of people with severe mental illness”.

Cochrane considers a consumer to be a person with experience of the condition (in this case, severe mental illness), either as a parent or as a family member/carer of a patient. From a consumer perspective, we are interested if the language of the review, especially the language used in the Plain Language Summary, is accessible and if it feels relevant for parents/family members of those experiencing severe mental illness, such that it will be helpful to them with healthcare decision making.

While you are welcome to provide feedback on any aspect of the review, you can focus your attention on the summary sections. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task, that does not overburden consumer reviewers.

Thank you in advance for considering!
