[Survey of rehabilitation facilities with psychologic and therapeutic services in the Federal Republic of Germany].
Rehabilitation facilities (N=110) in the Federal Republic of Germany had been surveyed in order primarily to take stock of the psychological/psychotherapeutical services available for treatment in various disorders. The numbers of psychologists employed are shown to vary with the diagnostic groups served by the respective institutions. Facilities in the field of child and adolescent psychiatry, for the care of disabled person, and of persons with dependence problems are much better provided with psychologists than are facilities in the fields of psychiatry, neurology, and internal medicine. The same picture is found as regards the patients/psychologist ratios applicable in the different facilities. Preference of certain psychotherapeutical models (behavioural therapy, client-centered psychotherapy, psychoanalysis) varies with facility type. Especially noteworthy is an apparent predominance of inpatient services as opposed to outpatients models of service delivery. This fact is an indication of insufficient availability of follow-up care. Finally, various curricular aspects of the professional training of psychologists are outlined in relation to the recently established specialty of rehabilitation psychology.
