Purpose To test if a collaborative care program (CCP) with nurses in a coordinating position is beneficial for patients with severe personality disorders. Design and Methods A pilot study with a comparative multiple case study design using mixed methods investigating active ingredients and preliminary results. Findings Most patients, their informal caregivers, and nurses value (parts of) the CCP positively; preliminary results show a significant decrease in severity of borderline symptoms. Practice Implications With the CCP , we may expand the supply of available treatments for patients with (severe) personality disorders, but a larger randomized controlled trial is warranted to confirm our preliminary results.
