Schizophrenic Patients

This article deals with a developing rehabilitation unit for mentally ill people, mostly chronic schizophrenic patients, which has been integrated into the Community Mental Health Centre of two Athenian boroughs. The unit includes a day care programme, a vocational training workshop and a social therapeutic club. All these programmes have been developed for the first time in Greece at a certain community level. The authors describe the rationale and the structure of the rehabilitation unit and the role of the occupational therapist.

Community Roles

This paper describes the staffing aspects of an experimental community mental health centre (Melville Clinic). The different components of staff roles of members of a team consisting of different health professionals, crystallised during the three-year period with a shift from a ‘nondisciplinary’ to a ‘multidisciplinary’ approach, with preservation of ‘generalised’ and ‘specialised’, ‘clinical’ and ‘community’ roles of all staff members. The decision-making in the centre oscillated between group decisions by all staff members, and the acceptance of the leading role of the psychiatrist with the active Involvement of the test of the staff. This paper provides a model for multidisciplinary teamwork in community mental health centres.

The records of all 53 clients who referred themselves to a community mental health centre in the first three years of its existence were studied retrospectively. These showed increasing and generally appropriate use of direct access for the relief of serious, often long-standing emotional distress. Self-referrals were much more often men than women, and some clients would probably not have been reached in any other way. The service seemed to reduce the local GPs' burden, at least subjectively. However, no-one presented with acute psychiatric disturbance or immediately impending breakdown. Any prevention achieved seems likely to be long-term rather than short-term.

Abstract Objective: To assess schizophrenia patients’ approach toward coping with stress in terms of demographic variables. Methods: The cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at the State Hospital Community Mental Health Centre, Turkey, from November 1, 2013, to April 30, 2014, and comprised patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. Data was collected using Sociodemographic Information Form, and the Coping Assessment Questionnaire Inventory. It was analysed using SPSS 18.  Results: Of the 53 patients, 14(26.4%) were females, and 39(73.5%) were males. The overall mean age was 38±10.66 years. Highest mean score was recorded for the emotion-focussed coping subscale which was 63.49±10.64. Female patients used emotional social support, focussing on problems and venting emotions techniques (p<0.05). Patients who did not use alcohol received higher scores from religious coping subscales, while patients who used alcohol scored higher from substance use and dysfunctional coping subscales (p<0.05). Conclusion: Most schizophrenia patients were found to be using emotion-focussed coping methods. Continuous....
