Recovery: It is assumed that patients who are treated in the acute ward twelve months after the implementation of peer support (intervention group post t0) show higher recovery than patients who were treated there prior to the implementation process (intervention group pre t0). Furthermore it is assumed that this parameter does not change in an acute ward without peer support (control group pre t0 – post t0).
