Section 0940-05-29-.01 - DEFINITION
(1) "Psychosocial rehabilitation" means a consumer-centered program of services for adult service recipients to enhance and support the process of recovery. Program focus is based on a strengths model of mental health, working with the whole service recipient to improve service recipient functioning, rather than treatment for symptoms of a mental illness. Service participants, in partnership with staff, form goals for skill development in the areas of vocational, educational, and interpersonal growth that serve to maximize opportunities for successful community integration. Service participants proceed with goal development at their own pace and may continue in the program with varying intensity for an indefinite period of time.
