Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Psychoeducation approaches, which involve teaching patients and their families about mental illness, its symptoms, treatment options, and coping strategies, have been shown to be effective in reducing relapse and rehospitalization rates among patients. This approach helps families better understand and manage the illness and its impact on the patient and family dynamics. Couples and marriage therapy may be helpful for relationship problems, but may not necessarily impact relapse and rehospitalization rates. Brief therapy may not provide sufficient time to address complex mental health issues and may not be effective for all patients.
