Abstract
Our article explores the issue of safety during psychiatric treatment from the service user's point of view. This manuscript is part of the AktiV study and was written by authors with lived experience of psychiatric treatment.55 interviews with users of inpatient equivalent home treatment (=IEHT) were evaluated with the thematic analysis. The guiding question was how the safety needs of users in IEHT can be met, including in comparison to inpatient treatment.The topic of safety is the basis for support in crises for users. The attitude of the staff and their relationship with the users play a significant role in this.IEHT offers more options for safe treatment compared to the inpatient treatment context. The absence of coercion and violence is necessary for users to be safe during psychiatric treatment.
