Summary

The proposed project will be a mixed-methods feasibility study of modified Cognitive Adaptation Training for an inpatient forensic mental health population (finCAT). Cognitive Adaptation Training (CAT) is an evidence-based compensatory cognitive intervention that focuses on improving functioning through the provision of environmental supports and cues. CAT is typically applied in outpatient care but has been successfully modified for inpatient service contexts in a Netherlands trial and at CAMH in previous pilots for both forensic and non-forensic inpatient populations.
