The main objective of the project is to validate a Dual Integrated Attention Program (D-AIP) for mental health nursing in people with Severe Dual Diagnosis admitted to a psychiatric hospitalization unit, assessing change motivation, insight, medication adherence, drug consumption abstinence or reduction, therapeutic alliance, hopelessness and anxiety, which this context generates. For this purpose, a randomized, prospective, one-year-longitudinal clinical trial will be conducted. This study will be applied on patients with diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and bipolar disorder types I and II who, after accepting to participate in the study and signing the informed consent, answer the PRISM questionnaire of admission in the hospitalization unit and fulfill the dual pathology criteria. After, they will be randomized in control group and intervention group (only the later will complete the D-AIP).~The D-AIP will consist on 6 individualized sessions with the psychiatric inpatients, and during follow-up up to one year after discharge in which 4 individual sessions and 3 telephone contacts will be made. In both groups, a different person from the one who performs the intervention and without knowledge of the group belonging will assess them with questionnaires in 9 moments during the whole follow-up year (Socrates 8D, Scale of Unawareness of Mental Disorder SUMD, Morisky Medication Adherence Scale MMAS-8, Working Alliance Inventory WAI, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale HARS y Hopelessness Scale HS) and will collect a urine sample in each evaluation. The sample size will be 86 subjects, for α=0.05 and power=0.80.
