Psychiatric rehabilitation is an aspect of treatment that focuses on helping the person return to an optimal level of functioning and to achieve their life goals. This is brought about by providing medical, psychological and social input. People with chronic psychiatric illnesses such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia may be mentally disabled by their condition, and require rehabilitation to pick up basic skills. In the case of disorders such as mental retardation, a process is followed to help patients learn skills necessary for daily functioning.

The involvement of the family is an extremely important aspect of the rehabilitation process. It also helps the family to understand the person’s strengths and create opportunities for them to make a meaningful contribution at home, or in the society.
