A feasibility study of a participatory designed program for preventing cardiovascular disease in mentally vulnerable patients.

There is a great need for focus on cardio-vascular disease in patients with SMI and those with AUD. Results indicate that the intervention is feasible for patients with AUD, but due to inclusion of too few patients with SMI, nothing can be concluded for this patient group. Patients and staff in the Alcohol Treatment Facility agreed that the intervention has future perspectives.
