After-care services for schizophrenic patients.
The multi-dimensional therapeutic requirements of an aftercare programme for schizophrenic patients are emphasized. The manipulation of a single variable, e.g. a drug, without paying attention to the social, demographic and ecological context of the programme, may lead not only to disappointing results but to non-valid comparisons of effectiveness between results in different centers. In face of the multiple contraints, the after-care of the schizophrenic patient will long remain a task of therapeutic skill.
