Abstract

Background/Objectives: The ‘Triad card’ is an instrument to be used in the interaction between the triad of informal caregivers, workers, and clients in mental health care. The card was designed by Ypsilon, the Dutch association of family members of people with schizophrenia or psychosis, to shed more light on the role of caregivers, both relatives and other members of the social network, of people in mental health care. The card asks for the necessary contact information from mental health workers and caregivers. Its main focus however is on the questions about the kind and amount of support that caregivers do and/or want to provide. The aim of a pilot study was to investigate how the card was used and how satisfied all parties in the triad were with this new initiative.
