39. Hanze University Groningen, Department of Rehabilitation Recovery competencies in New Zealand F An analysis of the training standards and curricula for psychiatrists, nurses, social workers and mental health support workers showed that there are some gaps in the recognition of recovery competencies.

40. Hanze University Groningen, Department of Rehabilitation Outcome of analysis There was little or no reference in most of these documents to: a recovery approach the service user movement and service user participation family perspectives and family participation the different understandings of mental health and mental illness discrimination, stigma and social exclusion supporting the personal resourcefulness of service users supporting them to develop their relationships and support networks assisting them to make effective use of services and resources.

41. Hanze University Groningen, Department of Rehabilitation Recovery Education The primary purpose of this paper is to provide educators with guidance on the inclusion of recovery content in the courses they run for mental health workers. It does this by outlining the recovery-based competencies that need to be reflected in training standards and curricula, and by providing a comprehensive list of resources to support the teaching and learning of the recovery-based competencies. The material in this resource is designed to sit alongside existing professional and clinical

42. Hanze University Groningen, Department of Rehabilitation How were the competencies developed? The competencies were developed by service users from several information sources: · A review of international mental health recovery literature. · A perusal of selected literature on peoples experiences of mental illness and services, the service user movement, human rights, discrimination, social exclusion, cultural issues, family perspectives, community development and adult education. · A review of New Zealand training standards for mental health support workers, nurses, psychiatrists and social workers. A draft set of competencies was developed for consultation which consisted of: · focus groups of service users, families, Maori, Pacific people and Asian people · written comments from education providers, service providers, government agencies, service users and families. Their comments and concerns were very useful in shaping the final document.
