title: [Needs and utilization of mental health services in schizophrenia].
abstract: The planning of mental health treatment for people with severe mental disorders constitutes a major public health problem and an important social challenge. This study aims to identify the needs and to describe the utilisation of 20 services or modalities of mental health treatment among a schizophrenic population living in the Estrie region of Quebec. The results confirm that the needs are great and show that the most important deficiencies are in the psychosocial and readaptation services. The implications of these results with regard to the organisation of mental health services for schizophrenics are briefly discussed.
