As of late Integrated Care Pathways (ICPs) have been shown to improve quality of care in the medical field with special attention given to mental health in particular. One aspect of metal health that has not seen the incorporation of ICPs is in the area of schizophrenia. Late life Schizophrenia (LLS) is defined as suffering from schizophrenia and being 50 years of age or older. The LLS-ICP study will look at the efficacy of an ICP in late life schizophrenia versus treatment as usual (TAU). Participants with LLS and having psychotic symptoms above a predefined threshold will be randomly assigned to a TAU group or an ICP group. The primary outcome measure will be reduction in symptom severity as measured by clinical global impression severity scale (CGI-S) and brief psychiatric rating scale (BPRS). If successful, this study will provide strong evidence to implement LLS-ICP across different inpatient and outpatient settings.
