[Clinical case management of severely mentally ill homeless people.].
The aim of this clinical case management project was to improve the health and quality of life of homeless mentally ill people and to help them use more appropriately health and welfare services. During a descriptive study that lasted 12 months, data was collected concerning the case manager's intervention as well as the assessment of these interventions on the clients' health and behavior and on community resources' services. Although limited in scope and length, the project shows some positive results. Recommendations are made concerning essential collaboration between all health and welfare professionals working with this population.
