In 1999, the Ohio Department of Mental Health, with the collaboration of
consumers, family members, clinicians and mental health board staff developed
the Emerging Best Practices in Mental Health Recovery process. These pages
provide an overview of the process, the guiding principles that drive the
process, a summary of how to use the Best Practices and the Best Practices
components. To obtain additional information about the Best Practices or to receive extensive training on the Emerging
Best Practices for your organization or Board area, please contact the Office of
Recovery Services (614-466-0236) at the Ohio Department of Mental Health.

Recovery Components
This section provides each of the nine Emerging Best Practices recovery
components broken out by the four stages of recovery. Each web page provides two
tables. The first describes the "current status" for each recovery
component, which is used by the consumer to identify where they currently are in
their recovery. The second table describes the "best practices" that
help the consumer identify goals thus allowing them to progress to the next stage.
Integration
of the Emerging Best Practices and Ohio Consumer Outcomes
This section provides an example of how the Emerging Best Practices in
Recovery can be integrated with the Ohio Consumer Outcomes.
