“…It is important for nurses to be aware of the possibility that a severely ill consumer's behaviours may negatively impact their perception of the potential for relationship and detract from motivation to engage in relationship with the client. They should also be aware that as Tham et al () found, the quality of the nurse–client relationship influences a patient's willingness to communicate with the nurse. Baker et al () also found nurses' reports of lack of confidence and knowledge regarding how to manage communication barriers to be associated with avoidance of the consumer.…”

“…Baker et al () also found nurses' reports of lack of confidence and knowledge regarding how to manage communication barriers to be associated with avoidance of the consumer. Tham et al () noted that there is a paucity of research on factors that shape perceptions of therapeutic relationship. The research discussed makes clear the importance of further research in this area.…”

There are numerous barriers to the therapeutic relationship between nurses and persons with schizophrenia, such as time constraints, communication issues and the requirements of practice policies. The main point of this paper is that the nature of these barriers is such that the nurse may not conceptualize these as barriers or be aware of how his or her responses to these can further entrench existing barriers to relationship or create new ones. If the nurse is not aware of how he or she responds to time pressure, frustration or lack of clarity of practice policy and address this, there is a risk that the patient may perceive the nurse's actions as lacking in care, presence or involvement. As consumers increasingly embrace recovery approaches to mental health that prioritize therapeutic activities within the context of collaborative relationship, psychiatric nurses, with a long tradition of therapeutic relationship, can rise to meet them. It is suggested here that this can only occur if nurses are fully aware of barriers to relationship, their responses to these and the impact of these on relationship with patients. Suggestions for educational and empirical work to further raise awareness and promote understanding of this process are provided.

“…Interventions from the different professional profiles have proved to be effective for improving these areas of functioning. For example, antipsychotic treatment is the first-choice treatment for reducing positive symptoms and achieving remission of 80% of symptoms after the first year of treatment [ 38 ], but cognitive behavioral therapy [ 39 ], interventions of occupational therapy [ 12 ] and nursing [ 40 ] or exercises promoted by physiotherapists [ 41 ] have also been shown to be effective in reducing such symptoms. In this regard, social workers may also contribute to alleviating psychotic symptoms by conducting appropriate assessments and referrals [ 42 ].…”

An integrated and interdisciplinary care system for individuals with schizophrenia is essential, which implies the need for a tool that assesses the difficulties and contextual factors of relevance to their functioning, and facilitates coordinated working across the different professions involved in their care. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Core Sets (ICF-CS) cover these requirements. This study aimed to evaluate the content validity of the ICF-CSs for schizophrenia from the perspective of experts. Six three-round Delphi studies were conducted with expert panels from different professional backgrounds which have played a significant role in the treatment of individuals with schizophrenia (psychiatry, psychology, nursing, occupational therapy, social work and physiotherapy). In total, 790 experts from 85 different countries participated in the first round. In total, 90 ICF categories and 28 Personal factors reached expert consensus (reached consensus from four or more professional perspectives). All the categories in the brief version of the ICF-CS for schizophrenia reached consensus from all the professional perspectives considered. As for the comprehensive version, 89.7% of its categories reached expert consensus. The results support the worldwide content validity of the ICF-CSs for schizophrenia from an expert perspective and underline the importance of assessing functioning by considering all the components implied.

Background: Little information is available regarding the effect of religiosity and spirituality on medication adherence in patients with schizophrenia. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the association of medication adherence with different aspects of religiosity and spirituality in patients with schizophrenia. Materials and Methods: One hundred patients with schizophrenia were evaluated on religiousness measure scale and Duke Religion Index (DUREL); Brief Religious Coping Scale (Brief RCOPE); World Health Organization Quality of Life Spirituality, Religiosity, and Personal Beliefs (WHOQoL-SRPB); and Brief Adherence Rating Scale (BARS). Results: A higher level of religiosity as assessed by the religiousness measure scale, private religious activities and intrinsic religiosity as per DUREL, positive religious coping, and all the domains of WHOQOL-SRPB was associated with better medication compliance as assessed by the percentage of doses of medications consumed in the last 1 month as evaluated by using BARS. Conclusion: The present study suggests that a higher level of religiosity and spirituality were associated with better medication compliance.
