14 Recovery Model Assisting Veterans in their Journey of Recovery Engagement Resource Building Implementing Change Reintegration Self Maintained Recovery Relapse Management Working with the Veterans to stimulate their selfbelief and develop their commitment to recovery. Builds on the Veterans resilience to effectively engage in more intensive in-patient or out-patient treatment options. Builds on the capabilities of Veterans to change, to strengthen skills and to improve psychological resilience through active and intensive treatment. Consolidates the skills acquired through treatment enabling these Veterans to improve social reintegration into families and their communities. Empowers the Veterans to continue to live their lives independently. Acknowledges the potential for relapse and focuses on the obstacles that are still preventing recovery.

Intervention: low level activity and group based rehabilitation input Seen to take better personal responsibility for their illness and improve functionally Audit data confirmed clinical observations that veterans moved away from the sick role and functioned more adaptively An outcome study relating to this service is underway

20 PTSD Intensive Treatment Programme (ITP) Psycho-Educational Groups, Skills Training Groups and 1:1 TF-CBT Groups: PTSD Psychoeducation Arousal & Reactivity Management Overcoming Avoidance Mood Management Mindfulness Skills Art Therapy Recovery & Resilience Family education/carer groups Individual: Sessions of Trauma Focussed Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

22 Evidence Base & Outcomes Research Literature Evidence base - >4000 Australian Veterans Outcome best if: Mix of individual and group interventions Mix of residential hospital / day centre and outreach Must include trauma focussed therapy not just rehabilitation Rule of thirds one third do well; one third get better, one third don t do so well need more help Outcomes related to intensity of programme: this is correlated with severity of disorder. The higher the severity the more intensive the therapy should be If patient has mild disorder and intense programme delivered likely may not improve and might make worse Patient Selection is critical

23 Intensive Treatment Programme Clinical Audit and Psychometric data outcomes Sept 2011 April 2015 Good uptake - around 900 have completed the programme High Completion Rate - Low drop out rate (3-15% annual rates) Audit data and Psychometric Subjective and Objective measures indicate much improved clinically and functionally post programme PTSD and other co-morbidity and function much improved with CONTINUED improvement between 6 week and 6 month follow-up 70% of attendees are much improved

28 PTSD ITP Outcome Paper British Medical Journal on Line (March 2015) Naturalistic study: Successive patients-246 veterans who accessed Combat Stress between late 2012 and early 2014 for treatment. Six week and six month follow-up High engagement and high completion rate (94%) (US studies drop out rates 22-46%) No evidence of differences in baseline outcomes completers and non completers Over 80% responders at 6 months - no evidence of differences between those we were able to follow up at six months and those lost to follow up. Highly significant reductions in PTSD scores following treatment on both clinician completed measures (87% reduction in PTSD symptoms maintained over six month follow-up period US study 49% reduction in PTSD symptoms). Similar improvements in Anxiety, depression, alcohol misuse, anger. Highly significant improvements in functional impairment continued to improve between six week and six month follow-up. Predictors Outcome paper to be published.

29 Comparison of ITP with other intervention outcome studies (Professor Mark Creamer 2015) Clinical improvement following treatment is often expressed as effect size (ES) ES of 0.2 is small, 0.5 moderate, and 0.8 large Note that we would expect slightly lower ES at longer follow-ups due the fact that some veterans will relapse Veterans with chronic co morbid PTSD Intervention Country Effect Size Time scale Murphy et al 2015 Forbes/ Creamer current Monson et al 2006 Treatment Programme ITP (Combat Stress) United Kingdom months Treatment Programme Australia years Cognitive Processing Therapy USA month post treatment Turek et al, 2011 Exposure Therapy USA Immediately post treatment The ES achieved by the Combat Stress programs (Murphy et al., 2015) are approaching 1.3 in core PTSD symptoms, maintained through to six months post-treatment, with comparable gains in co-morbid conditions To achieve this level of sustained improvement for a predominantly chronic veteran PTSD population is very impressive. (Creamer 2015)

30 One Year Follow-up Paper in preparation N=108 at 12 month follow-up Before and after ITP. 31% PSS-I had reduced by between 1-9 points, 31% scores reduced by point 26% reduced by 20+ points on the PSS-I. 13% symptoms were worse than before treatment, Improvements we noted in the 6 month paper are being maintained

31 Abstract Title: Exploring the relationships between baseline health and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and functioning outcomes in UK veterans treated for PTSD. Murphy, D. & Busuttil, W. Accepted for publication in Psychology Research Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in ex-service personnel is associated with high levels of co-morbidity and significant functional impairment. This paper reports on predictors of treatment outcomes in UK veterans with PTSD. The sample for the study consisted of 244 participants who had received a standardised six week residential treatment programme for PTSD. The programme consisted of individual trauma-focused CBT and group therapy sessions. In this paper evidence is presented that shows improvements in intrusive, avoidance and hyper-arousal PTSD symptoms six months after the end of treatment; with post-treatment avoidance PTSD symptoms showing the most improvements. The findings suggest that higher levels of baseline anxiety and dissociation are associated with worse post-treatment PTSD outcomes. This suggests the importance of treating these difficulties in UK veterans before intervening for symptoms of PTSD. Hazardous Drinking is not a predictor of poorer outcome.
