In 1990, she entered an experimental "skillâ€" building" program at Anna State Hospital in Illinois, and now she‘s about to complete her B.A. degree in college. There is new hope for the serious mentally ill. New programs are emphasizing rehabilitation â€" building specific social, cognitive, recreational, vocational, selfâ€"help, and stress manâ€" agement skills â€" instead of traditional psychotherapy. These new approaches are proving to be more effective than past treatments, according to psycholâ€" ogist Richard Hunter â€" a consultant to the American Psychological Association (APA). In his review of the literature, the following four proâ€" grams are reported to be the most effective. The "Psychiatric Rehabilitation Approach" began in the 1970s at Boston University, by psychologist Marianne Farkus and colleagues. It deals less with "curing" a mental illâ€" ness and more with coping skills. The program works to help patients funcâ€" KR AFE T Gâ€"Eâ€"N E R A L serious men tion in their specific roles â€" as student, parent, worker, spouse. Rehabilitation gets people to figure out specific goals, and what skills they need to get there. If one goal is to move from a sheltered workshop to a competitive job, they would provide direct training on the job skills necessary for that job, then eventually meet with the client at the job site daily to work through any problems that might come up. Goals are also set in the areas of housing, school, hygiene, dating, etc. Another program called NOVA was developed in 1982 by psycholoâ€" gist Cynthia Bisbee, in Alabama. Geared for people with chronic Schizophrenia, the program includes instruction about the illness, stress management, counseling, medication, F 0 O D S re se nts SHARON LOIS BRAM in concert with L\» THE hO]1 day p3 A WinterActive Singâ€"Along! _ . ies t + BABESâ€"INâ€"ARMS REQUIRE SEPARATE ADMISS Just walbi the dog 7 te Sharon, LoiS verv monfe(und\es O‘KEEFE CENTRE DECEMBER 8 â€"11 7 PERFORMANCES...

Educating the families on the illâ€" ness helps to “demystify” it, as well as, helping patients to better control the illness. For example, patients are taught warning signs of a relapse, such as irritability, so they can act to preâ€" vent it. Parents are taught productive ways of reacting to their schizophrenic child‘s symptoms, such as calmly disâ€" cussing why he thinks the doctor is trying to poison him. After the sympâ€" toms are under control, the treatment moves onto rehabilitation, such as social and jobâ€"skills training. Rewards are often used to manage undesirable behavior; when a patient prone to angry outbursts learns to talk in a norâ€" mal voice, he may have extra visitors or go on special activities. A third approach is "Therapeutic Contracting", developed in 1976 at Harvard Medical School. Patients are asked to identify their problems, set treatment goals, and design steps to reach them. Contracts are posted and revised weekly, as a constant reminder of the task at hand. For example, if a patient decides her problem is that she‘s been depressed, can‘t eat or sleep, and cries too much, her shortâ€" term goals might include saying a number of positive things about herâ€" self each day, attending therapy sesâ€" sions three times per week, taking her medication on time, setting up an appomtment for a job interview, disâ€" cussing what problems may occur\ after she goes back to work. Group and therapy sessions are used to crank up the level of the contract, making it more demanding as the patient proâ€" gresses. A fourth program is called the "Social Learning Program", develâ€" oped by psychologist Gordon Paul at the University of Houston. It involves the most extensive assessment (16 hours a day) of every behavior, the context in which it occurs (eg. while alone, under stress, during play), and the reaction of relevant others to the behavior. After this assessment, the therapists gain a feel for the client‘s motivation, and the program is taiâ€" lored to remotivate the client toward more positive social, work, and comâ€" munication skills, while taking the â€" motivation away from bizarre behavâ€" ior. Staff play a major role in afterâ€" care, going out into the community with the client to help them solve any problems at work or at home. Rehabilitation involving skills training, behavioral interventions, patient and family education, are makâ€" ing longâ€"needed strides in the battle to help the seriously ill.
