Abstract:
Vocational planning for people with schizophrenia often creates a unique challenge for rehabilitation professionals due to the ambiguous nature of the disease and the lack of information concerning the work potential of people with this disorder. This article reviews the medical, psychosocial, and vocational aspects of schizophrenia. Issues pertaining to difficulties in determining diagnoses and prognoses are discussed. Methods for assessment and vocational planning are also presented to assist rehabilitation professionals in making timely and appropriate interventions.
