“…In Hong Kong, despite growing awareness of psychosocial disability, there has been little attention given to the matter and minimal penetration at a policy level, reflected by the fact that the two policy papers released by the Hong Kong Government over the past decade for people with disabilities failed to address the special needs of people with schizophrenia (Tsang et al, ).…”

“…SMI has substantial personal and economic impacts, which have been variously quantified across the A‐P region. In Hong Kong, 80% of people requiring community rehabilitation services in 2001 were living with schizophrenia (Tsang et al, ). An estimated 173 million Chinese citizens suffer from diagnosable mental disorders, of whom 158 million have never received any treatment.…”

Introduction Psychiatric rehabilitation can provide and support recovery‐oriented care by assisting individuals living with severe mental illness to lead full lives. Despite a well‐established evidence‐base, implementation and access to these interventions in clinical practice for people with severe mental illness in the Asia‐Pacific region is low. We therefore aimed to evaluate prominent themes impacting on clinical practice, policy, and the implementation of psychiatric rehabilitation across the Asia‐Pacific region. Methods A comprehensive review of relevant literature on psychiatric rehabilitation of three regions within the Asia‐Pacific was conducted using a structured search of PubMed and other databases. Eligible articles were selected which focussed on how psychiatric rehabilitation is defined and implemented across the Asia‐Pacific region, as well as the associated successes and challenges. Common themes were generated. Results Six themes emerged: the impact of policy, legislation, and human rights; access difficulties; the important role of family; the significance of culture, religion, and spiritual beliefs; the widespread impact of stigma; and the indigenous models of excellence being developed. Discussion Consideration of the six themes and their implications should help raise awareness of the issues involved in the provision of psychiatric rehabilitation in the Asia‐Pacific region and may improve outcomes for people living with severe mental illness. Suggested strategies include: developing a shared understanding of psychiatric rehabilitation; establishing quality legislation that's well implemented; adapting evidence‐based models to develop culturally appropriate services; implementing stigma reduction and empowerment‐based interventions; and, ensuring coordinated action among all stakeholders, combined with effective leadership.

ÖZETAmaç: Bu çalışma, şizofreni derneklerine gelen, ayaktan takip edilen şizofreni hastalarının tedavi uyumunu ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirildi. Gereç ve Yöntem:Araştırmaya, Mart-Nisan 2013 tarihleri arasında, İstanbul'da bulunan dört Şizofreni Derneği'ne üye, 18-65 yaşları arasında, DSM-IV'e göre kronik şizofreni tanısı almış ve ayaktan takip edilen 35 hasta katıldı. Çalışmanın verileri anket formu, Tıbbi Tedaviye Uyum Oranı Ölçeği (TTUOÖ), Ruhsal Hastalıkların İçselleştirilmiş Damgalama Ölçeği (RHİDÖ), Beck Bilişsel İçgörü Ölçeği (BBİÖ) ve Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği (ÇBASDÖ) ile toplandı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan hastaların yaş ortalaması 40.83±7.25, olup %85.7'si erkek ve %40'ı lise mezunudur. Katılımcıların TTUOÖ puan ortalamaları 6.8±1.20'dir. Cinsiyet, eğitim düzeyi, sosyal güven-ce sahibi olma ile TTUOÖ ortalama puanı gruplar arasında anlamlı fark bulunmazken, ekonomik durum ve TTUOÖ puan ortalaması arasında anlamlı bir fark belirlendi. Hastaların toplam hastaneye yatış süresi ve hastalık süresi ile TTUOÖ puan ortalaması arasında ilişki saptanmadı. TTUOÖ ile RHİDÖ, BBİÖ ve ÇBASDÖ korelasyon bulunmazken, RHİDÖ ve BBİÖ arasında anlamlı pozitif korelasyon saptandı.Sonuç: Çalışmaya katılan şizofreni hastalarının tedaviye uyumu dü-şük bulundu. Bu nedenle, ruh sağlığı ve psikiyatri hemşirelerinin, şizofreni hastalarında tedaviye uyumu etkileyen faktörleri belirlemeleri ve toplum ruh sağlığı alanında yapılandırılmış programları uygulamaları önerilebilir.Anahtar sözcükler: İçgörü; içselleştirilmiş damgalama; sosyal destek; şizofreni; tedavi uyumu.

“…Nevertheless, multi-disciplinary approach is crucial for successfully implementing holistic interventions of psychosocial rehabilitation. Therefore, a number of mental health professionals, including psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, occupational therapists, social workers and clinical psychologists should be involved (Tsang et al, 2013). This multi-disciplinary team is, however, unavailable in mainland China.…”
