Contribution of the Medical Nurse in the Complex Rehabilitation of Patients with Mental Disorders /// Роля на медицинската сестра в екипа за комплексна рехабилитация на психично болни

Current development of psychiatry in conditions of deinstitutionalization of mental health services and heightened opportunities to control the symptoms of mental disorders, makes patients’ socialization increasingly important. Along with the "objective" quantitative and qualitative characteristics of social interaction, subjective life experiences (physical, psychological and social interactions) and welfare, defined by us as “quality of life”, are gaining critical importance as well. This is a relatively new perspective in the study of the mentally ill in social settings. A contribution to better quality of life for these patients would be a full-bodied rehabilitation providing social adaptation and resocialization of persons with mental illnesses after treatment of an acute episode. Key priority for complex rehabilitation is the potential of ensuring equal and adequate access to mental health care for people with mental disorders; ensuring continuity of care and social inclusion; ensuring their own and public safety; combating the stigma and discrimination of the mentally ill, ensuring the reduction of the economic and social burden of mental illness. The above objectives set forth in various strategic documents cannot be achieved without well-trained teams of specialists for psychosocial rehabilitation.
