Reviewer 2 Report

Jørgensen et al. has explored how the mental health professionals and users perceive recovery-oriented intersectoral care between mental health hospitals and community mental health care. The topic has been already extensively explored in the literature.  Results section requires a substantial revision. There is lack of any numerical data, statistics, the authors simply  cite the participant’s statements. Unscientific terms like: “some participants”, “the majority of participants” are used multiple times. I suggest to re- design survey with punctation for the answers and try to use even basic statistical methods in comparison between groups. The increase of sample size would be  useful. Language needs some improvement. The number of self-citations (9/40) is of concern as well.
