Abstract
This paper, the second in a three‐part series, describes the assessment and treatment programmes of two service users to illustrate the MIETS approach, and gives details of the skill profiles which were used to plan their future placements. Data on the behavioural characteristics of MIETS users at pre‐admission and discharge are also presented, together with a discussion of the difficulty of using such measures to evaluate service effectiveness.Keywords
