Rehabilitation programs
People
with schizophrenia may need help and training to do tasks that others
consider to be easy or trivial. Examples of issues that may be covered
in rehabilitation programs are how to manage at home (e.g. taking
care of the household, cook and shop), how to take care of one self
(e.g. personal hygiene, how to dress, going to the dentist) and
how to manage money (e.g. paying the rent).
The rehabilitation process can also include
different actions to increase the patient´s social support
and abilities. For example, the schizophrenic individual may need
help and training to know how to interact with other people.
