"We had a secure staff, meaning we had good staff who were confident in their field and did not see the use of experience as a threat or a challenge, but rather as a potential in collaboration."
What happens when professional expertise meets personal experience in the world of mental health and addiction recovery? Espen Gade Rolland, leader of the SPOR interest group for mental health and addiction nurses, shares his unique perspective on this very question. Recorded during the 'Stronger Together' conference in Bergen, this episode of 'Recoverypodden' dives into how blending professional skills with lived experiences can create a powerful force for change.
Rolland discusses the CHIME model, emphasizing Connection, Hope, Identity, Meaning, and Empowerment as key components of recovery. He reflects on his collaboration with an MB-er (a staff member with lived experience) and how this partnership enriched both patient care and professional practice. Florence Nightingale's belief that individuals possess the innate ability to heal themselves—both physically and mentally—is a recurring theme throughout the conversation.
Rolland argues that healthcare professionals should view those with lived experiences not merely as patients but as vital collaborators in the recovery process. Trust and teamwork are essential, and secure, confident staff can foster a more supportive environment. The episode also addresses the ongoing challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Rolland sees the crisis as an opportunity to rethink and innovate recovery-oriented practices in healthcare.
His insights offer valuable takeaways for anyone involved in mental health and addiction recovery, whether you're a professional, a person with lived experience, or a caregiver. Tune in to hear how combining professional expertise with personal stories can pave the way for a more collaborative and hopeful approach to recovery.
