Abstract

Nowadays the problems of obsessive-compulsive disorders and hypochondriasis have become quite urgent. The disorders are often encountered both in mental institutions and in general medicine clinics. They are resistant to treatment and there is always a menace of them transforming into a chronic mental illness. So, it’s important to deal with the issue of the psychiatric rehabilitation (reintegration into the social environment) of those suffering from said disorders. To achieve good results psycho-social treatment and rehabilitation measures should be taken beginning from the earliest mental treatment stages. However, there are still many unclear and misunderstood points both in design and application of the rehabilitation program. In this study during the years 2012-2016 based on the previous work we have developed the programs for the group of 80 patients with said disorders. The results of the evaluation of the patient’s basic functioning after application of the programs are presented in the paper.
