Embedding coproduction in organisational culture and practice: a case study.

Purpose: This paper aims to explore the challenges of coproduction at individual, team, service, organisational and system level and critically describes the work of one organization to describe ways in which coproduction can be facilitated.

Design/methodology/approach: This is a case study of the approaches developed (coproduced) within an independent not-for-profit mental health consultancy organization to facilitate coproduction at every level.

Findings: Although much is published about coproduction in research, there is relatively little guidance relating to coproduction in practice.

Sustainable practice: how practice development frameworks can influence team work, team culture and philosophy of practice.

The current political agenda to adapt mental health services to meet contemporary needs is changing the way that psychiatric rehabilitation is organized and focused. This comparatively new branch of mental health services has over the past 20 years been subject to continual change, both through policy and clinical directive. The author argues that this consistent process of change has destabilized the clarity that is needed to offer the style of care and support that users of rehabilitation services require.
