title: The components of good community care for people with severe mental illnesses: views of stakeholders in five European countries.
abstract: Researchers and practitioners collaborated in a project across five European countries aimed at defining the characteristics of good community care for people with severe mental illnesses and to explore the values ofstakeholders in this debate (clients, families, professionals, policy makers, other citizens). In a concept mapping procedure all stakeholders gave highest priority to a trusting and stimulating relationship between clients and professionals. Secondly, good care was seen as effective treatment tailored to the individual needs. Accessibility of services came in the third place. Differences between the views of stakeholders are discussed.
