| Popis: | Introduction: Physical independence is when a person does not need another person to carry out activities of daily living. Schizophrenia is among the 10 most disabling diseases. Objective: To describe the changes in physical independence after applying a comprehensive rehabilitation program for hospitalized schizophrenic adults. Methods: Research developed between January 20, 2018 and February 13, 2022. It integrated qualitative and quantitative research techniques and procedures. A single group was used. The consultation was applied to specialists. 65 schizophrenic patients participated who had been in hospital for more than 6 months, were less than 60 years old, and who were not in their acute phase or outbreak. The program was designed and applied over a period of 6 months with the participation of the mental health team, after training. Results: After the program was applied, the "independent" category predominated. Cognitive, affective, and behavioral improvement were achieved, as well as positive and negative symptoms. Changes were achieved towards higher levels of rehabilitation. Patients satisfied with the treatment received prevailed. The 10 specialists consulted considered the program viable. Conclusions: The comprehensive rehabilitation program for the hospitalized schizophrenic adult improves physical independence, promotes positive changes and is feasible to be applied. |
