Study protocol: a mixed methods study to assess mental health recovery, shared decision-making and quality of life (Plan4Recovery).

We want to see how being involved in decisions about care and the social links people have are related to recovery and quality of life for people with experience of using mental health support services. We want to understand the different perspectives of the people involved in making recovery possible. We will use this information to guide further studies of particular types of social interventions and their use in helping recovery from mental health problems.
