The goal of this prospective, randomized trial is to explore the link between cardiovascular disease and mortality in individuals with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI). The main question it aims to answer is: Is a primary prevention cardiac rehabilitation intervention feasible and effective at reducing cardiovascular risk in people with a primary psychotic disorder or bipolar disorder?" Participants will undergo a multi-component primary prevention intervention program. Researchers will compare with a control group to see if cardiovascular risk reduction is attained.
