Abstract
This article, the first in a series, will reintroduce you to psychiatric rehabilitation. If you work in or interact with mental health services, you are likely already familiar with certain-aspects of psychiatric rehabilitation. Common services that utilize psychiatric rehabilitation principles are Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) teams, community support programs, and residential mental health treatment. The successive articles will explore the principles, philosophy, and interventions that are a part of the psychiatric rehabilitation model of care. This article will define psychiatric rehabilitation, its history, and its purpose in the scope of mental health services.
