Abstract:   (15981 Views)
Abstract Introduction: Psychiatric home care programs are changing rapidly in response to the increasing numbers of acut psychiatric patients in community and the newly created competitive health care market. Some of this growth is a result of the proven efficacy of psychiatric patient in a cost-effective manner. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of home psychiatric nursing care in patients with schizophrenic disorders after being dischaged. Materials & Methods: The study was a quasi-experimental research design. The participants included 60 patients diagnosed with schizophrenic disorder case and control groups. The samples were selected by access sampling .The case group were provided a 3-month home care after being discharged and evaluted 6 months later. Findings: The results showed the following in the experimental group after home psychiatric nursing care: an improvement in the quality of life, stopping unnecessary hospitalization, facilitating more rapid discharges, prevention of symptomatic recurrences and better psychotherapeutic drug orders than the control group. Conclusion: Work with families to reduce relapses was always seen as an adjunct to maintain the medication and not as a substitute for it. Indeed, family therapy, when added to antipsychotic medication, has been shown to be more efficacious than medication alone in preventing relapses in schizophrenia.
