Abstract
This retrospective descriptive correlational study evaluated treatment satisfaction and the quality of life (QOL) of consumers with serious mental illness participating in a community mental health program that combined illness management and recovery strategies with a group appointment model. The Wellness Enhancement and Recovery Program (WERP) was evaluated to determine satisfaction with services and QOL of consumers over 3 years. Findings from the data analyses indicated that consumers in WERP were satisfied with treatment services and had a fair to good QOL. Satisfaction and QOL were moderately correlated.
