[Occupational rehabilitation of psychiatric patients--psychological diagnosis and counseling].
Rehabilitative measures should not set in only after a patient's discharge from hospital but already during his in-patient stay. This applies in particular relative to the occupational integration or reintegration of psychiatric patients, all the more so since rehabilitation always includes a certain measure of prevention. The author presents the system of occupational rehabilitation consulting hours practised at the Psychiatric Clinic of the University of Mainz for some 15 years now, in which some 800 patients have so far been counselled; further, the work of the clinical psychologist in the framework of this rehabilitative measure is described. The psychological evaluation methods used are presented in detail, emphasizing their importance for occupational rehabilitation. Social contacts being essential also in the working world, the relevant personality questionnaires and projective methods used are set forth, illustrating their relationship to the patient counselled.
