A carefully planned comprehensive and integrated care model of in- and outpatient depression treatment is a promising way to achieve improvements in care. Within the framework of the Freiburg Model of integrated care for depressive disorders a network of psychiatrists and primary care physicians offers in collaboration with the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy of the University of Freiburg a coordinated treatment for patients with depressive disorders. Complementary to an evidence-based outpatient treatment the department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy offers a complex treatment where patients can use the different inpatient measures during their outpatient treatment. In addition patients with a chronic depression can make use of a specific treatment program.
