Leisure Activities for Schizophrenia

Overall Rank: 34

Social, group and physical activities are an important aspect of comprehensive service provision for people with schizophrenia as the acute phase recedes, and afterwards. All care plans should record the arrangements for social, group and physical activities.

Domain : Patients with Psychosis

Psychosis refers to a serious mental disorder (such as schizophrenia) characterized by defective or lost contact with reality, often with hallucinations or delusions.
Additional Domain(s) : Rehabilitation

Rationale

The services most likely to help people who are acutely ill include crisis resolution and home treatment teams, early intervention teams, community mental health teams (CMHTs) and acute day hospitals. If these services are unable to meet the needs of a service user, or the Mental Health Act is used,
inpatient treatment may prove necessary for a period of time. Whatever services are available, a broad range of social, group and physical activities are essential elements of the services provided.
