This patient workbook provides mental health professionals with a structured framework for giving information on schizophrenia to clients with the disorder, whether the clients are in residential or community treatment. The workbook is intended to be used by professionals and clients together, one-on-one or in group settings, at a slow pace, perhaps only a few pages a week. It is organized in six parts, providing an overview of schizophrenia and discussing possible causes, symptoms, treatments, and how to cope on a day-to-day basis. Each section also includes assessment questionnaires with space for client answers, case studies, and frequently asked questions. Almost every page contains space for readers to write their reflections and experiences. Healy is a psychiatric nurse. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
