Abstract
  • From a therapist’s perspective, mental health frequently goes unaddressed in inpatient rehabilitation facilities, which has many negative effects on the clients as they are going through mentally and emotionally challenging times. Peer mentorship programs have been shown to reduce and improve clients’ mental health by promoting increased participation, coping skills, social connection, knowledge of available resources, and more (Baby et al., 2018; Richardson et al., 2020). A peer mentorship program manual was created and implemented for Community Rehabilitation Hospital North (CRHN) to better address the mental and emotional wellbeing of their clients. Through completion of a needs assessment, many interviews, a literature search and review, and continued communication with stakeholders, the site-specific program manual was created and implemented beginning with peer mentor recruitment. The results of the program were evaluated using an outcome assessment, in which therapists reported highly positive feedback. In conclusion, a peer mentorship program manual was successfully created and implemented for this doctoral capstone experience. Future implications include rehabilitation professionals encouraging clients to participate in peer mentorship programs for mental health benefits, re-evaluating the peer mentorship program, and implementing the program at other rehabilitation hospitals within Community Health Network. Keywords: mental health, inpatient rehabilitation, peer mentor, peer mentorship program
