This study suggests that GPs should have a role in the support of people in EIP services (in particular, monitoring and managing physical health) and their carers. Inclusion of GPs in managing discharge from EIP services is vital. We suggest that a joint consultation with the service user, their carer (if they wish), along with the EIP care coordinator and GP would make this transition smoother.
