ABSTRACT
The purpose of this clinical dissemination project was to evaluate changes in intensity of unpleasant auditory hallucinations (AH) and level of anxiety after forensic psychiatric inpatients attended an evidence-based symptom self-management course. The course was taught twice to patients with schizophrenic disorders. Data were collected using five self-rating measures. Seventy percent of participants reported reduced AH and anxiety; 100% reported helpfulness of being with others with similar symptoms; 90% would recommend the course to others. The course facilitator reported improved communication, comfort, and effectiveness working with people with AH, plans to teach the course again and recommend it to colleagues.
