The
Village's Designed Care Tree
Root: Psychosocial Rehabilitation
- Services are provided in as normalized an environment
as possible.
- Emphasis is on the here and now rather than on problems from the
past.
- Work is central to the rehabilitation process.

- Emphasis is on a social rather than medical model.
- All people have underused capacities that they can develop; all
people can be equipped with skills.
- Emphasis is on clients’ strengths rather than on pathologies.
- People have the right and responsibility for
self-determination
- Care is provided in an intimate environment without professional,
authoritative shields and barriers.
Characteristics of psychosocial rehabilitation are taken from
"Perceptions of consumers, practitioners, and experts regarding
psychosocial rehabilitation principles" by R.A. Cnaan, L. Blankertz, M.
Saunders, Psychosocial Journal 1992; 16(1); 93-119. |
