Psychoeducation programs have been shown in the last two decades to significantly improve the post-hospital discharge care of individuals with schizophrenia by demonstrated effects on rehospitalization rates, compliance with medication and knowledge. The benefits of psychoeducation can be sustained for up to seven years although most studies have not shown such enduring benefit. Psychoeducation is a type of psychotherapeutic support that aims to provide broad and adequate information on psychotic disorders for both patients and their families.
The purpose of the group psychoeducational program at the Psychiatric clinic in Olomouc is to familiarize patients with the core of the disorder, explain the part played by pharmacotherapy, teach recognition of the warning signs of relapse, to advise on communication problems within families, and finally the training of social skills.
Patients perceive the program as meaningful and helpful in better understanding their lives.
在过去二十年中，心理教育项目已被证明能通过对再住院率、药物依从性和知识的影响，显著改善精神分裂症患者出院后的护理。心理教育的益处可持续长达七年，尽管大多数研究并未显示出如此持久的益处。心理教育是一种心理治疗支持形式，旨在为患者及其家属提供关于精神障碍的广泛而充分的信息。
奥洛穆茨精神病诊所的团体心理教育项目的目的是让患者熟悉疾病的核心，解释药物治疗所起的作用，教授识别复发的警示信号，就家庭内部的沟通问题提供建议，最后进行社交技能培训。
患者认为该项目对更好地理解他们的生活有意义且有帮助。
