title: Mental health. Rehabilitation: a progressive approach.
abstract: For clients who have depended heavily on psychiatric services, or who have had lengthy admissions to hospital, the move to independent living can be a traumatic and difficult time if adequate support is not available. The author describes a rehabilitation unit for such clients, where staff aim to help them reach realistic decisions about their futures in a supportive environment.
