Abstract

MARIA ASSUMPTA RIGOL, Cuadra. Rehabilitation and Social Reinsertion of the Mentally Ill in Cataluña, Spain. SMAD, Rev. Eletrônica Saúde Mental Álcool Drog. (Ed. port.) [online]. 2010, vol.6, n.spe, pp. 439-459. ISSN 1806-6976.

Psychosocial rehabilitation is currently understood not only as an objective, but also as a process, because most mental disorder related problems appear since the onset of the disease. Hence, rehabilitating strategies should be initiated soon after reaching the diagnosis. The present study describes the current status of rehabilitation in Cataluña, using as reference the guidelines of Europe and the Spanish State ruling them, as well as its strengths and weaknesses.

Keywords : Psychiatric Nursing; Mentally Ill Persons; Continuity of Patient Care.
