Community psychiatry has its origins in the West, in the 1950s, when many institutions for the mentally ill have been closed down, in an effort to shift the focus from hospital-based care to a community based one. The current paper aims to review the available literature regarding the community based psychiatric treatment in Romania.
The Ministry of Health in Romania is dedicated to promoting mental health education and to creating a mental health system that ensures that every patient has access to care and treatments designed for their own particular needs. Today, in Romania, as in all Central and Eastern Europe, mental health systems are transitioning from hospital-based care to community-based services. The RECOVER-E project, the SEE Mental Health Project, the Horizons project, among others, showcase Romanias mental healthcare system to improving the chances for recovery of mental health patients.
Community Psychiatry in Romania is a budding field that can greatly aid in the management and treatment of psychiatric patients of urban and rural areas. In order to create a strong and efficient network of specialists invested in this cause, efforts must be made to apply the principles of deinstitutionalization and community health care.

“…These usually lead to a lack of social support, which has been found to have a negative influence on symptom control, hospitalization period, and death (5) . Social support may be given via any person who has either blood relation or non-blood relation with the affected person and most patients expect social support from their families than from others (6) . Social support is classified into "structural components" like social networks and "functional components" like perceived social support, which is divided into instrumental (or concrete) and emotional (or intangible) support (7) .…”
Background: Social support is an important element in the recovery of clients with psychiatric disorders. There is a lack of studies investigating the relative impact of factors related to social support. Disentangling these could enhance recovery for psychiatric patients. Aim: The current study intended to explore the relation between perceived social support and recovery among patients with psychiatric disorders. Subjects and Method: Design: A descriptive correlational research design was used. Setting: Port Said Psychiatric Health and Addiction Treatment Hospital. Subjects: The studied subjects compromised 90 patients with psychiatric disorders. Tools: Data were collected by the use of three tools namely, a personal and clinical data questionnaire, a Multidimensional scale of perceived social support, and a Recovery assessment scale domains and stages. Results: Most of the psychiatric patients in this study had low perceived social support. Participants had a mean total recovery score of 76.10 ± 20.08.
Conclusion:It can be concluded from the present study that there was a positive statistically significant correlation between perceived social support and recovery for psychiatric patients. Recommendations: Enhancing social support while caring for psychiatric patients is recommended to regain recovery. Further studies are needed to improve recovery for psychiatric patients.
